0:00.0	Today we're talking about the rest productivity ratio. Now the rest productivity ratio is something that I have designed for myself as a fellow human being who's imperfect because I too struggle to find a balance between resting enough and being productive enough and finding a balance, I constantly felt burnt out, I constantly
0:23.3	felt overwhelmed, I constantly was putting myself down, not letting myself rest enough.
0:29.3	I have had to work on this for the last five years, doubling down.
