Episode Notes:

You’re down with the idea of productivity, but rest? There’s just not enough time…

Be honest now, is that what runs through your mind? I can relate. It seems to make so much sense that staying up later and crossing more things off your to-do list will make you productive. But in my experience, it’s often been the opposite.

In This Episode You Will Hear about:

• Why rest is a growth strategy
• The personal story that inspired this episode
• Using your cyclical rhythms to your advantage
• The gains you’ll make when you prioritize rest

• How to get the support you need to achieve your goals
• What would it could look like for you have the support you desire
