Unbridled Joy in Rest: From Performance to Presence with Allandra Bulger
Recently released *New Book* Rest Is Sacred. Check out www.restissacred.com for order and purchase options. Rest, read, and enjoy!
An unexpected pause in her leadership journey led to a profound discovery. In this conversation Allandra Bulger and I explore the wake-up call that led her to question everything—from her relationship with busy-ness to her role as a leader. What emerged was a journey from doing it all to becoming and being.
Allandra demonstrates how leaders can shift from wearing the cape to honoring rest and creating meaningful impact. She shares how rest unlocked a deeper connection to her authentic self and unbridled joy.
Drawing from her practice as an MC under the name "Insite the Riot" (playing on the dictionary definition of riot as "an unbridled display of joy"), Allandra reveals how stillness and intentional pauses have become vital to her practice of leadership, creativity, and healing generational patterns.
In this episode, we explore:
- How rest practice develops self-awareness and inner wisdom
- Reclaiming rest as a way to heal ancestral lineages and create new legacies
- Breaking free from expectations of being "all things to all people"
- The power of asking "what is mine to do?"
- Finding joy and restoration in stillness
- Creating possibility models of rest for future generations
Experience a guided rest practice focused on releasing the performer within and embracing the sacred pause between breaths. Plus, discover how embracing rest can transform not just your professional life, but your connection to creativity, joy, and divine wisdom.
