In this episode, Allie Marie Smith talks with our friend Jess Connolly about cultivating a lifestyle of sustainable rest. Jess is a bestselling author, speaker and we’re talking about her new book “Tired of Being Tired: Receive God’s Realistic Rest for Your Soul-Deep Exhaustion (Practical, Simple Tools to Help You Fight the Fatigue that Overwhelms and Holds You Back).” Jess shares her personal journey of exhaustion and how she realized the need for rest. They discuss the cultural acceptance of busyness and the pressure to constantly be productive. Jess explains the different types of exhaustion and the importance of knowing which type we are experiencing.

The episode concludes with a message of encouragement and the importance of understanding Jesus's words in Matthew 11.
