What if your refusal to rest isn’t just hurting you but delaying someone else’s breakthrough? In this final episode of the season, I share real, raw moments from my recent student summit, a REST retreat for Black women, and conversations with people facing hard truths about burnout, obedience, and their health. This isn’t about naps, it’s about how not resting can cost you (and others) more than you realize. I’ll also share some questions to help you check in - with yourself and the people you care about. If you’ve been running on fumes, this episode is your sacred stop sign.

What if you made your rest and wellness non-negotiable? Because your gift is holy and so is the body carrying it.

Topics I Cover:

• The connection between gratitude and physical endurance
• Why yawning is not disrespect, it’s regulation
• What rest really means (it’s not always a nap) and why it’s required for your gifts to function
• The hard truth: your depletion might be delaying someone else’s healing
• How to check your own rest practices and health choices
• A sneak peek at the upcoming Sabbatical Experience in Santorini (Nov 1–11, 2025) → Contact Dr. G on Instagram @drkristenguillory , Facebook facebook.com/kristen.guillory or email [email protected] for a special podcast listener discount.
