Are your “rest” habits actually keeping you stuck in stress?

If you turn to TV, scrolling, or snacking at the end of a long day—but still feel tired, cranky, or wired—you’re not alone. And you’re not broken. In this Real Coaching episode, I share a powerful live session with my client Sylvia, who bravely asks: Why does my “rest” leave me feeling worse?

Together, they unpack a habit that feels comforting—but isn’t actually restorative—and rebuild it from the ground up. The transformation is gentle, strategic, and deeply human.

You’ll learn:

• How to know if your current rest habits are helping or hurting your healing
• Why “intentional rest” is the missing piece in your autoimmune health puzzle
• The simple mindset shift that makes habit change less about restriction—and more about designing your life

Press play ask yourself: What would true rest feel like for me? This episode might be the first step toward reclaiming it.

Note: The Habit Hub for Autoimmune Health is now Autoimmune Health Secrets—same mission to help you feel better and function better using habits that are enjoyable, effective, and  (together we make them) inevitable.

New episodes released every Tuesday and Friday.

This podcast explores health and wellness through the lens of autoimmune disease—multiple sclerosis (MS) and others—diving into how challenges like fatigue, brain fog, flares, and other symptoms related to the nervous system, inflammation, and mitochondria can be supported by healthy habits in food, movement, sleep, and rest, while fostering consistency, effective self-care, and a resilient mindset. If you’ve read the bestseller Atomic Habits by James Clear and still don’t have the healthy habits you want, this show is for you. Adjacent to functional medicine, holistic health, the AIP diet, and the Wahls Protocol, the podcast offers guidance from a health and wellness coach to help those navigating chronic illness feel better and thrive.
