"You're allowed to stop."

In this conversation, I explore rest not as a luxury or reward, but as a sacred practice woven into the very heart of creation. We dive a little deeper into Dr. Arianna Molloy's book, "Healthy Calling: From Toxic Burnout to Sustainable Work."

If God rested, why is it so hard for us?

We'll discuss the pressures that drive us to perform and strive, the stories we've inherited about productivity and worth, and what it means to honor our humanity by slowing down. 

This is an invitation to step into living a life from a place of rest, not when everything is done, but right now, right where you are.
