Doing Less Without Feeling Less Than -- Rest as Rebellion

The Lawyer Life Podcast

Send me a note!

If you feel guilty when you slow down—or struggle to rest without spiraling into self-doubt—you are not alone. In this episode, we go deeper into the emotional and nervous system patterns that keep us tethered to constant busyness, even when we know we need a break.

This isn’t about adding another productivity hack to your routine. It’s about creating space on purpose—so you can start meeting yourself with more softness, stillness, and truth.

Together, we’ll explore:

• Why the guilt we feel around rest is really about identity
• How internalized pressure to be “useful” leads to burnout—even with a cleared schedule
• What it means to rest without earning it—and why that’s a radical act
• Somatic tools and practices to help you build tolerance for stillness
• Simple prompts to explore the discomfort that surfaces when you finally stop

You don’t have to keep proving your worth through overwork. Peace begins not when the to-do list is done—but when you remember that you were already enough before you did anything at all.
✨ This episode is your invitation to slow down, breathe, and practice rest as an act of self-trust.
