🎧 Episode Summary:

In this soul-soothing episode of The Right Intention, Todd invites each of us to pause, breathe, and explore the life-giving practice of Sacred Rest. In a world that glorifies hustle and constant productivity, Todd offers a refreshing counterpoint rooted in scripture and spiritual truth: You were created to rest. Not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.


Learn what Sabbath truly means—not as a rule, but as a rhythm—and how reclaiming sacred rest can restore your peace, sharpen your clarity, and deepen your relationship with God. This episode is an open invitation to stop striving and start receiving.
