This is definitely something I am working on in/for myself post-divorce. I’m totally absorbed with hustling and striving and always being busy, and I always feel that underlying thread of anxiety nagging at my soul. Thank you for sharing your gentler journey.

Emma, I totally relate to that hustle/strive/busy/anxiety vibe - I've lived most of my life in it! I'm glad you're on the gentler journey with me :)

I’m definitely working on figuring out what this balance looks like. For so long I thought resting would mean doing nothing, which didn’t appeal to me. I think that’s the beauty of the word gentle. You can bring it to an act, any act really.
