Part 2 of "Get Some Rest Girl" - Why You're STILL Tired Even After Sleep And What To Do About It

You’re getting your 8 hours of sleep, following your nighttime routine, and doing all the “right” things—so why are you still exhausted?

The truth is, rest isn’t just about sleep. There are seven different types of rest, and when we neglect them, burnout creeps in.In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the overlooked ways you need to recharge.

Inspired by Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith’s book Sacred Rest, I’m breaking down how each type of rest affects your energy, focus, and overall well-being. Whether you’re struggling with mental fog, emotional overwhelm, or feeling disconnected from your purpose, this conversation will help you pinpoint what’s missing—and how to restore yourself in a way that lasts.

Plus, later on this week I’ll guide you through a simple meditation to help you identify which type of rest your body, mind, and soul are craving most right now.

In This Episode, We Cover:

🔹 Why 8 hours of sleep isn’t enough

🔹 The 7 types of rest and their unique benefits

🔹 How to tell which type of rest you’re missing

🔹 Why people-pleasing is draining your energy (and how to stop)

🔹 The difference between passive and active rest

🔹 How sensory overload is making you more exhausted

🔹 The life-changing impact of setting emotional & social boundaries

🔹 The truth about creative rest and why adults need it just as much as kids

🔹 How rest actually makes you more productive (not lazy)

🔹 The "Axe Metaphor"—why rest is sharpening, not stopping

🔹 A bonus meditation to help you reconnect with the rest your soul needs
