About this episode
This episode discusses the importance of learning to rest and embrace limits for a more joyful life.
In this week's episode, I'm joined by my friend Dani Jaye, author of It's Not Just a Man's World, for a deep and honest conversation about something many of us struggle with—learning how to truly rest. In a world that glorifies hustle, rest can feel like a luxury or even a weakness. But what if it's actually a gift? Are you feeling drained, exhausted, or constantly running on empty? Do you long for a different way of living—one that embraces limits, renewal, and joy? You're in the right place! Join us as we unpack why rest matters, how to embrace it without guilt, and what it means to find real restoration in your everyday life.
