Summary

Every new year, we play the same game, compiling a list of resolutions to be more productive, pushing ourselves to the limit to attain some version of ourselves that will be better than the last. This year, host Tonya Mosley is taking a different approach. Instead of giving more to the world, she plans to give more to myself. And that starts with revisiting this powerful 2022 conversation with Nap Ministry founder Tricia Hersey. Hersey says it’s time we treat our bodies not as hustle machines but as living, divine beings that need rest.
