Making Good: Small Business Podcast

‘Rest is Resistance’ by Tricia Hersey [Making Good Book Club #29]


Listen Later

Right off the bat, I just need to tell you that this book is a must-read. It is so beautifully written, and there is so much wisdom to gain. Charelle and I have already begun experimenting with implementing a few of the ideas that Tricia Hersey shares, including unlearning popular messaging around productivity, hustling, and the role of rest. 

This is not a business or self-help book. 

It is a personal and social history intertwined with a healthy critique of white supremacy and capitalism and the way it influences how we work and the way we value ourselves and our time. Tricia writes from her experience as a black woman and descendant of enslaved people. There was so much in this book that just made me pause and re-read and underline and reflect.

Mindset is certainly a big topic that I tackle fairly often, both on this podcast and in my membership, and Rest is Resistance has given me so much food for thought about how I approach mental health and well-being in my work. I loved talking with Charelle about this book, and as always, seeing what different pieces of wisdom we each picked up on. This was a truly great conversation, and I cannot wait for you to hear it.
