Unfiltered with Roxy - Episode 15: You Don’t Have to Earn Rest
✨ In this episode of Unfiltered with Roxy, we’re diving into one of the biggest myths of modern life: the idea that rest has to be earned. We’re flipping that narrative on its head. Rest is not a reward—it’s a requirement for a healthy, whole, and joy-filled life.
Roxy gets real about hustle culture, the guilt we carry around taking breaks, and the silent burnout that creeps in when we ignore our need to rest. You'll leave this episode with practical tools to honor your body and your boundaries, and permission (yes, permission!) to rest—no excuses necessary.
🧠 What You’ll Learn
Self-care is the foundation of true productivity.
🔥 Mini Challenges (Your Weekly Homework)
✔ Reflect: When was the last time you rested without guilt? ✔ Schedule one intentional rest day this week—no justification needed.
✔ Write yourself a “Permission to Rest” note.
✔ Add one micro-rest (5 mins/hour) into your daily routine.
