How do you rest…right now?!
When the world is on fire and it feels unrelenting, how do you take care of yourself? In this episode I break down:
how rest is an opportunity to sustain the work, not bypass it
how an urgency all or nothing mindset leads to burnout
how we have to know rest personally to better fight for it collectively
I don't say it's easy but you know our rest is necessary!
