Podcast Ep 28 Why We Feel Guilty When We Rest
In this episode, Brett and Vanessa unpack the pressure many people feel to always be busy.
Even when they desperately need rest.
They explore how upbringing, habits, culture, expectations, and endless choice can make stopping feel uncomfortable or even wrong.
From overloaded schedules to the mental pressure of “I should be doing something”, they examine why rest is often undervalued and why slowing down can actually help us reconnect with ourselves and others.
If you struggle to switch off, feel guilty resting, or constantly feel “on,” this conversation will probably feel very familiar.
