Part 2 of our 3-part VITAL Office Hours series on navigating work as a high achiever.

Today: The Guilt of Rest.

"I'll rest when I'm done."

But you're never done. If you feel anxious, guilty, or unsafe every time you slow down, this video is for you.

We often mistake our nervous system's addiction to adrenaline for "work ethic".In this session, we go deep into the psychology of high achievers who struggle to pause.

We look at the Japanese concept of "Ma" and why your inability to rest might actually be loyalty to childhood patterns.In this video, I cover:

Why rest is not the opposite of work, but part of the work.

The "Stone Archway" analogy:

Why space holds the structure together.

The science of "Deloading" used by elite athletes.

How to stop feeling guilty for taking a break.
