About this episode
Join the James H Glover Network for another powerful and honest conversation as Rev. James H. Glover III and Hannah Irby sit down to unpack a struggle too many people carry in silence:
“Why Do People Feel Guilty Resting?”
In a world that glorifies the grind and praises burnout like it’s a badge of honor, rest can start to feel like failure. But is that really how it’s supposed to be?
Tonight, James and Hannah get real about the pressure to always be “on,” the fear of falling behind, and the internal guilt that whispers, “You should be doing more.” They’ll challenge toxic productivity, break down the difference between laziness and necessary rest, and remind you that even God rested—so why do we feel like we can’t?
Expect honest dialogue, relatable moments, and questions that will check your mindset and shift your perspective:
• Are you resting… or just feeling bad for slowing down?
• Who taught you that your worth is tied to your work?
• What happens when you finally give yourself permission to pause?
This isn’t just a conversation—it’s a reset.
Tap in, subscribe, and be part of the discussion. Because sometimes the most productive thing you can do… is rest.
