This week on the podcast, Coach Kelly has a discussion with Ellen Mailhot about the book  "On Our Best Behavior" by Elise Lonan. Much of what we believe about productivity and “laziness” goes unchallenged.

Our thoughts about “sins” like sloth are actually holding us back from rest, joy, and meaningful work.

Here are my top 3 takeaways:

• Rest is Essential, Not Earned: The belief that you have to "earn" your rest is outdated and counterproductive. Stepping away from this mindset can bring more energy and clarity to your work and life.
• The Myth of Perpetual Productivity: Culturally, we've been conditioned to see constant busyness as a badge of honor, but research (and lived experience) shows this leads to burnout, not progress.
• Redefining Worthy Work: Rest allows us to show up more fully for our purpose—at home, at work, or wherever our “worthiest work” lies. It’s not about doing less, but doing what matters most from a place of joy and alignment.

If you're struggling to build rest into your routine, you’re not alone—and you’re already worthy of it. For support on your journey, check out our group coaching. Let’s give ourselves permission to rest, recharge, and thrive!
