Ever found yourself standing in the kitchen, laundry half folded, dishes in the sink, and instead of doing any of it… you just pick up your phone and start scrolling Instagram?

You’re not looking for anything in particular. You’re not trying to learn or achieve anything. You’re just tired.

I get it, because I’ve been there too.

This episode is for the working mom who isn’t lazy, unmotivated, or weak… she’s just exhausted. The one who reaches for her phone not because she doesn’t care, but because it’s the only quiet she gets all day.

Today, we’re having a real conversation about what that “scrolling to rest” moment is really about. I’m sharing 5 truths that helped me shift out of guilt and into grace; truths that reminded me that my worth isn’t measured by how much I produce, and rest isn’t something I have to earn.

If you’ve ever felt behind, overwhelmed, or quietly guilty for needing a break, this episode is your reminder: you’re not broken. You’re human. You’re tired because you’ve been carrying too much for too long. And the good news? You don’t have to stay there.
