  SPEAKER_00: So, good morning, good afternoon, and good evening.

• 0:51
  SPEAKER_00: We've been in a series, haven't we?
• 0:54
  SPEAKER_00: A great series on a crazy topic that came to me that really made sense later.
• 1:01
  SPEAKER_00: You don't need a new you.
• 1:04
  SPEAKER_00: Everybody's running around trying to be a new person.
• 1:08
  SPEAKER_00: And it came to me that you don't always need to be a new you.
• 1:15
  SPEAKER_00: So we've been in it.
• 1:17
  SPEAKER_00: The series is built on a quiet truth that most people are afraid to say this thing out loud.
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_00: We're not broken, we're just tired, we're overstimulated, we're disappointed, we're grieving, we're we're something, but we're not broken.
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_00: We're not living into being broken.
• 1:31
  SPEAKER_00: We're gonna declare ourselves whole and we're declaring ourselves healed.
• 1:36
  SPEAKER_00: Even if we don't feel like it, we declare it, we speak it out loud.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: Because here this here at the sweet spot, we don't back down from challenges.
• 1:49
  SPEAKER_00: We're very real.
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_00: This is a conversation over a coffee table, the coffee table of life.
• 1:55
  SPEAKER_00: Me and you, we're just talking like friends, people who are in the journey, on the hunt, trying to figure out how do we live the life we love?
• 2:08
  SPEAKER_00: How do we not be riddled with anxiety?
• 2:12
  SPEAKER_00: How do we get up with hope?
• 2:14
  SPEAKER_00: How do we face another day?
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_00: I am your fellow traveler on that journey, and I don't have all the answers, but guess what?
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: Yesterday on Finish Strong Friday, we talked about this idea.
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_00: You finish strong by protecting what's left, not by emptying the tank.
• 2:34
  SPEAKER_00: Today, Self Care Saturday, we're gonna go a layer deeper.
• 2:38
  SPEAKER_00: One foot in front of the other, one day at a time.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_00: That's what we do here on the sweet spot.
• 2:45
  SPEAKER_00: And self-care Saturday is all about rest.
• 2:48
  SPEAKER_00: The title for this particular episode is this You don't need a new you, rest without guilt.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_00: Because rest is maintenance, not collapse.
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, absolutely, absolutely.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_00: Rest is often misunderstood.
• 3:06
  SPEAKER_00: Many people think rest is what you do after you're depleted, but the ancient wisdom offers a very different picture.
• 3:15
  SPEAKER_00: In the KJV, the King James Version.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_00: I know all the classically trained Christians are happy.
• 3:22
  SPEAKER_00: I started with the King James and didn't go to the Message Bible, but I'm going to the Message Bible right after this.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_00: In the KJV in Matthew 11, verse 28, it puts it this way Come on to me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you what?
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_00: Rest.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_00: And in the message Bible, my favorite.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_00: Are you tired, worn out, burned out on religion?
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_00: Come to me, get away with me, and you recover your life.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_00: I'll show you how to take a real rest.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_00: Absolutely, absolutely.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_00: And that's what this is about.
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_00: That's what this is about.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_00: This is all about you finding your rest.
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_00: You are resting.
• 4:20
  SPEAKER_00: You're resting because resting is about trust.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_00: Resting is about returning to the truth that you have everything inside of you that you need.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_00: You don't need a new you.
• 4:33
  SPEAKER_00: You've already been fearfully and wonderfully made.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_00: Absolutely.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_00: You don't collapse when you rest.
• 4:42
  SPEAKER_00: You recover.
• 4:44
  SPEAKER_00: You recover.
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_00: So when you take this break and you allow yourself to breathe, you fix yourself by doing nothing.
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_00: You accomplish everything by doing nothing.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_00: No instructions, no requirements, no fixing.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_00: You literally are just inviting yourself into the presence of the Most High and letting yourself be held for a moment.
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_00: Sometimes it's not even just sitting down.
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_00: It could be that you're doing something slowly on purpose.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe you're just gonna let a call go to voicemail without explaining why you did.
• 5:25
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe it's about sitting in the quiet for two minutes longer than usual, or enjoying something without turning it into a productive activity.
• 5:35
  SPEAKER_00: And that's it.
• 5:37
  SPEAKER_00: And here's the pearl I want you to carry with you today.
• 5:40
  SPEAKER_00: Rest is not what you do after you're depleted, not at all.
• 5:45
  SPEAKER_00: Rest is what keeps you from becoming depleted in the first place.
• 5:51
  SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna say that again.
• 5:53
  SPEAKER_00: Rest is not what you do after you're depleted.
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_00: Rest is what keeps you from becoming depleted in the first place.
• 6:02
  SPEAKER_00: You don't need to justify it, you don't need to earn it, you don't need to feel guilty for receiving it.
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_00: You deserve rest.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_00: So that's it for today, Self Care Saturday.
• 6:17
  SPEAKER_00: You go take care of yourself today.
• 6:18
  SPEAKER_00: Give yourself five minutes, take a deep breath, relax.
• 6:21
  SPEAKER_00: Tomorrow is slowdown Sunday, and we're going to talk about why slowing down isn't falling behind.
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_00: It's how things actually settle into place.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_00: If this moment gave you a little peace and a little bit of space today to breathe, please subscribe.
• 6:39
  SPEAKER_00: It's free.
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_00: I guarantee you, no hidden cost.
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_00: And if you know someone who's been carrying too much for too long, share this episode with them.
• 6:52
