When Rest Doesn’t Feel Restful: Why We Struggle to Pause or Slow Down

What happens when you finally slow down... and it’s quiet?

This conversation is for the high-achievers, over-functioners, and deep feelers who are excellent at producing—but still trying to figure out what real rest looks like. 

Whether you’ve taken a sabbatical, are recovering from burnout, or are just craving more spaciousness in your day-to-day, this conversation is for you.

Join Betty Chan, Authenticity Life Coach, and Carmen Iñiguez, Coach & Facilitator, for a reflective, real-world conversation on how we relate to rest, how unstructured time reveals what we’ve been avoiding, and how to reimagine rest as something nourishing, not just earned.

We’ll explore:

  • Why it’s hard to rest (even when we know we need it)

  • What to do when spaciousness feels… uncomfortable

  • How to bring the clarity of post-vacation rest into everyday life

  • Practices and mindset shifts for resting without guilt
