49. Choosing Rest Over Reset


Listen Later

This episode contrasts the viral "Sunday reset" with a gentler "Sunday recharge," featuring a somewhat anonymous Substack creator, who writes about choosing rest over productivity. It highlights simple rituals that can refill your energy instead of exhausting it.

Beth reflects on how prioritizing small restorative habits reduces stress and impulse spending, offers permission to make Sunday your own opportunity to recharge and feel better about the week ahead.

 About this week’s featured contributor:

I write about anxiety, social anxiety, shame, and the chaos of being human — with honesty, softness, and sometimes sharp edges. My words are personal, sometimes messy, sometimes angry, but always real.

I try to publish once a week, always with care and intention — never just to fill your inbox.

If you’re looking for something that cuts through the noise and maybe even makes you feel seen, you’re in the right place.
