Rest, Reset & Real Talk: Lessons in Slowing Down

1 hr 17 min

In this episode, I get honest about my ongoing struggle with hustle culture and the guilt of slowing down, sharing how a week of rest with friends helped me realize the true value of resetting. I also reflect on the power of being fully seen—on dates and in life—and why I’m committed to showing up as the most authentic version of myself, every day.

Welcome back to Let’s Try This Again—I’m your host, B Simone, and this episode is both real and refreshingly honest as I pull back the curtain on my own journey with hustle culture, rest, and self-discovery. I get vulnerable about how hard it’s been to slow down after years of being in constant “go mode”—from juggling an at-home podcast setup (y’all, production is NOT for the weak!) to taking real breaks from social media and learning how to be still without feeling guilty. I share what I learned during my week with a friend in Kansas, how witnessing the daily grit of single moms inspired me, and why taking time to reset is actually a game changer—not a setback. PLUS, I open up about a surprise date that made me reflect on femininity, friendship, and my desire to be truly seen for who I am. Whether you’re struggling to rest, navigating your own self-worth, or just need permission to date from a place of wholeness, this episode is packed with relatable stories, insight, and motivational takeaways you can use right now.
