Why does rest feel impossible for ambitious moms—and why is slowing down actually an act of resistance? In this episode of the Bodyful Minds Podcast, we explore how hustle culture pushes the productivity lie and equates busyness with worth. You’ll hear why rest is a feminist issue, especially for mothers who are constantly expected to give without pause.
Together, we’ll look at how intentional pauses and body awareness practices can help ambitious moms create more balance between career and motherhood. We’ll talk about why true creativity and energy come from rest, how nervous system regulation supports both you and your kids, and why micro-breaks and conscious movement can be powerful starting points.
This isn’t about doing less—it’s about reclaiming rest as resistance and realizing that stillness is radical in a culture that only values productivity.
👉 Tune in to learn how to embrace rest as a resource, let go of guilt, and strengthen the foundation for your ambition and your family’s wellbeing.
