E343: The Sacred Pause: Jennifer and Doug Discuss the Role of Rest in Rebirth

In this episode, Jennifer and her podcast producer explore the power of slowing down in times of change. Drawing from Viktor Frankl, Buddhist teachings, and farming practices, they challenge hustle culture and discuss how the energy used to maintain things is the energy needed for change. They examine how periods of rest - like fields in farming - create growth. This conversation offers a view on work transitions, particularly in DEI work, and shows that in times of uncertainty, strength comes from the choice to pause, reflect, and find new paths forward.
