  • This Is Rest: A Guided Meditation to Return to You – Reclaiming Rest pt. 4
    Jun 19 2025
    If you’re tired of being tired — but rest still feels impossible — this episode is for you.
    We’re closing out the Reclaiming Rest series on Juneteenth with something different: not a conversation, but an experience. A guided meditation designed to meet you exactly where you are.

    If your nervous system won’t power down...
    If your shoulders never seem to drop...
    If the idea of rest feels nice, but not safe — this practice offers a gentle way in.

    No need to be perfect.
    No need to impress.
    Just small, honest moments of softness, stillness, and nervous system relief.

    Because rest isn’t a reward. It’s your birthright.
    And today, we return to it — together.

  • Reimagining Rest: Tiny Moments of Relief - Reclaiming Rest Series pt. 3
    Jun 12 2025
    If deep rest feels hard right now, let’s start with what’s possible.

    We’ve been taught that rest means shutting down, doing nothing, or waiting for the perfect moment of peace. But for high-functioning women raised in hustle culture, stillness can feel unfamiliar — even impossible.

    In this third episode of the Reclaiming Rest series, we challenge everything we’ve been taught about what rest “should” look like.

    This isn’t about productivity hacks or setting up perfect rest scenarios. It’s about everyday acts that send gentle signals to your nervous system that it’s safe to pause — even briefly. I’m also sharing my personal struggles with rest and offering real-life ways to create micro-moments of relief that feel doable inside a full life.

    Because rest isn’t always about stopping.
    Oftentimes, it’s about softening, one small choice at a time.
    Let's begin to remimagine what rest in the real world can feel and look like.

  • The Hidden Reason Rest Feels So Damn Hard - Reclaiming Rest Series Pt. 2
    Jun 5 2025
    If rest was just about stopping, you’d feel better by now.
    But instead, you pause — and still feel wired, tense, or agitated.
    What if I told you this isn’t a mindset problem or a lack of motivation?

    In part 2 of the Reclaiming Rest series, we uncover what’s really happening beneath the surface: the hidden nervous system patterns, unconscious pressure, and protective reflexes that make rest feel impossible.

    This isn’t about doing more to relax — it’s about learning what’s keeping you “on” even when you’re still.

    Because until your body feels safe,
    rest won’t feel like relief.
    It’ll feel like resistance.

    Listen now to start finding the relief you deserve.
