Welcome to Being Boss, a podcast for creatives, business owners, and entrepreneurs who want

to take control of their work and live life on their own terms.

I'm your host Emily Thompson, and in this episode, I'm diving into unpacking your relationship

with rest and how and why you should work to heal it.

You can find all the tools, books, and links we reference on the show notes at www.beingboss.club

Before we dive in, bosses, I have a podcast for you to add to your cue.

So when you're done with this episode, head on over and listen to the remarkable people

podcast wherever you get your podcasts.
