S3 E 14: Rest Is Not a Reward: How to Reset Without Losing Momentum


Listen Later

In this solo episode of the Heal/Create Podcast, Courtney dives into the concept of rest as a vital, holistic practice—emotionally, spiritually, and creatively. Drawing from personal experience, polyvagal theory, and her work with clients, she explores how true rest differs from shutdown or avoidance, and how it can help rebuild a sense of worth and expand creative capacity. She invites listeners to redefine rest not as a reward, but as a rhythm, encouraging sustainable growth without sacrificing emotional or nervous system health.
