1 Insight • 1 Practice • 1 Reflection

Each week, we share a simple framework to help you reset:
One themed focus.
One idea to sit with.
One practice to try.
One question to carry.
One quote to remember.
And one real moment from our own week.

Let’s get into it 👇

🎯 This weeks focus

Rest as resistance.

🧠 One idea to sit with

In a culture that rewards speed, rest becomes a radical act.
When you choose to slow down, you’re refusing to live by someone else’s pace.
You’re saying, “My worth isn’t measured by my output.”
Rest interrupts the cycle of urgency that keeps you disconnected from what matters most.
It’s not quitting. It’s reclaiming.
Because when you protect your peace, you protect your power.

✍️ One practice to try

Block one evening this week with nothing on the calendar.
Not “free time.” Not “catch-up time.”
Just space.
Use it however your soul asks — read, breathe, stretch, or sit in silence.
Let the world move fast around you while you choose not to.

❓One question to carry

“What am I proving by staying busy?”

📝 One quote to remember

“Rest is a form of resistance because it disrupts and pushes back against capitalism and white supremacy.”

- Tricia Hersey, Rest is Resistance

📸 One real moment from our own week

Each week, we’ll close with something personal from our lives.
No filter. No fluff. Just a reminder that we’re walking this path right alongside you.

Eli’’s Moment:

Grateful for the small moments like this, signing our book. So glad I documented the moment!

Kyle’s Moment:

I had a great time heading to GrowTechFest 2025 and facilitating a workshop on The Power of Pause. The group to a step back at the end of the conference and paused long enough to begin to process all the great new information and connections they created!
