A listener named Maura wrote in with a question so many of us are white-knuckling in silence. After a demanding career and years of holding her family through crisis, she has finally, quote, retired, and she cannot shake the voice that asks, "are you doing enough, do I even deserve to rest?"
This week, in the very first Ask Natty, I coach her, and you, all the way through it.
What you’ll hear
🔥 What Ask Natty is, and how to send me the question you want coached on a future episode
🔥 Why “do I deserve to rest” is a rigged question, and the question to ask instead
🔥 The two layers under the guilt: worth-as-productivity conditioning, and a nervous system stuck in go-mode
🔥 The Unearned Rest: a ten-minute daily practice you take before you have earned it
🔥 A second question, on why healing is a labyrinth not a straight line, and why getting triggered doesn’t mean you failed
The framework. This is still the Unbinding, unbinding from the lie that your worth is your output.
