Show Notes
You rested last night, or all weekend, or even took a full day off — and you still feel just as drained as before.
This episode explains why: rest isn't one thing, and the kind of tired that survives a full night's sleep usually comes from a specific cause — too many decisions, too much noise, or too much performing for other people — that generic rest doesn't touch.
You'll hear why workplaces rarely make room for real breaks, why a short break you actually choose may work better than a longer one you just fall into, and the simple shift — asking what kind of tired you are today — that turns a vague, guilty break into something you can actually finish.
