Episode 103: Rest Isn’t Earned— It’s Essential
Let’s talk about rest- not just sleep, but the kind that helps you recover, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most. Inspired by another doctor’s recent sabbatical, I unpack why taking intentional breaks is necessary.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
Why it’s ok to have even more questions after a sabbatical.
How to navigate guilt and societal pressure around taking breaks or working less.
The connection between rest and creativity, and why unstructured time is vital for answering life’s big questions.
Why you’re already enough, even if you never do “another thing” in your career.
Rest creates the space to heal, spark creativity, and rediscover your priorities. It isn’t something you have to earn- it’s a fundamental part of life. If you’ve been pushing through burnout or waiting for the “right time” to step back, this episode will challenge how you think about rest and its role in your life.
