You’re not lazy. You’re not unmotivated. You’re not broken.

You’re just trying to live a championship life on an empty tank.

We refuel our cars. We charge our phones. But when was the last time you recharged yourself? In today’s world of non-stop noise and endless hustle, true rest has become a forgotten art and it’s killing your clarity, creativity, and connection. This episode is your permission (and your guide) to stop, breathe, and refill your tank the right way.

George breaks down the seven types of rest your mind, body, and spirit are desperately begging for and why sleep alone isn’t cutting it. If you’ve ever wondered why you’re still exhausted after eight hours of sleep or why your creative spark has vanished, this is your missing piece.

You’ll discover how to identify the specific kind of rest you’re lacking and how to build intentional, restorative pauses into your daily life, without blowing up your calendar or business.

What You’ll Learn In This Episode:

  • Why “physical rest” is only one part of the recovery puzzle
  • The 7 different types of rest and how they refuel different parts of your life
  • The question to ask yourself about how you’re using your time
  • How stillness creates space for spiritual, creative, and emotional breakthroughs
  • Practical micro-rest practices to prevent burnout and boost alignment

Key Takeaways:
✔️Sleep vs complete rest. There are seven kinds of rest your system needs:

  1. Social Rest: nourishing relationships, removing negative energy
  2. Sensory Rest: disconnecting from screens, noise, and stimulation
  3. Mental Rest: stillness, silence, and space to think
  4. Emotional Rest: changing your surroundings to reset your mood
  5. Creative Rest: play, art, and activities that unlock flow
  6. Spiritual Rest: prayer, nature, meditation, and reconnecting with higher purpose
  7. Physical Rest: sleep, massage, breathwork, and actual pause

✔️Rest is not indulgent, it’s required for clarity, performance, and peace.
✔️The best ideas, vision, and strategies come when you’re not grinding.
✔️Do an “intentionality audit”: how much of your time is aligned with your future self?
