Stop Earning Your Rest: The Silent Rule Making You Exhausted
Manage episode 521499087 series 3267511
You’ve been told you have to earn your rest.
That you can rest when things slow down, when everything’s done, when you’ve finally “earned it.”
In this episode of The Obedient Rebel Podcast, we expose one of the most common silent rules high achievers obey without realizing it:
“I must earn my right to rest.”
We’ll walk through:
- How this rule shows up as “I’ll rest when things slow down” (and why they never do)
- Why you feel guilty, anxious, or “behind” any time you try to slow down
- How God actually designed rest into creation through Sabbath, sacred pauses, and nature’s own rhythms
- Why rest isn’t the absence of work—it’s the presence of God
- A simple Obedient Rebel practice to start breaking this rule gently, starting today
If you’ve ever felt irresponsible for slowing down, this episode will feel like someone finally turned the light on.
