I used to think exhaustion meant I was doing enough. That being tired was proof I was dependable. But eventually, my body made the decision for me. It stopped cooperating.

In this episode, I share what recovery really looks like when you stop pushing and start listening to your body’s truth. It’s not about fixing yourself; it’s about finally feeling yourself.

✨ If your body’s whispering for rest and you’re ready to learn how to actually listen, come sit with me inside Journey to Self: The Awakening. It’s where women like us learn to rest without guilt, speak without apology, and live in a rhythm that feels true.
