“Doing nothing often leads to the very best of something”

In this episode, the Fab 5 is talking about giving yourself permission to do absolutely nothing - without the guilt. Hustle culture has taught us that we can always be doing something to get ahead, but it is unsustainable for your mental and physical health.

They talk about going through different seasons of self-care, why it is necessary to slow down, what the seven types of rest are, what it means to “do nothing”, how to address feeling guilty about slowing down, and so much more.
