So many entrepreneurs think rest is something you earn later — after the launch, after the revenue goal, after things finally feel “stable.” And that belief keeps you stuck in a cycle of pushing, white-knuckling, and wondering why you’re burned out even though you technically love your work. I’m breaking down the 6 different types of rest, why sleep alone won’t fix burnout, and how I’ve been intentionally weaving more play, creativity, and relief into my life and business — without stepping away from work entirely. In this episode, you’ll hear… Why sleep isn’t the kind of rest most business owners actually need The 6 types of rest and how burnout can show up even when you “love what you do” How pressure, grief, and mental load quietly drain your energy What it looks like to rest while building — not after Simple ways to add more joy, play, and creativity into your everyday life Click here to find the full show notes and transcript for this episode.
