198 - Breaking Busy: 5 Reasons Why You Might Struggle with Rest

When’s the last time someone asked you how you’ve been and your response was “I’m so busy”?

Burnout among millennial women is at record highs.  We’re exhausted, and yet we still wear our busyness as a badge of honor. Why is that?!

I get it - slowing down and resting can be challenging.  Especially in a hustle culture that glorifies productivity.

But it’s not just busy schedules and overwhelming to-do lists.  There are underlying factors that contribute to our struggle with rest, often rooted in our families of origin and patterns that have been conditioned over time.

In today’s episode, I coach through 5 reasons you might have a hard time resting so that you can start to break free from the cycle of busyness.

These are reasons you probably haven’t considered before because many of them have been ingrained in us since childhood.  When we know better, we can do better.
