We live in a world where rest has been branded as lazy. Where women, especially ambitious women and entrepreneurs, are expected to do it all: run the business, raise the kids, support the family, maintain friendships, and keep it all looking effortless. But beneath the surface? So many of us are exhausted, overwhelmed, and quietly wondering if we’ll ever feel “enough.”

Nicola Jane Hobbs is here to challenge that narrative. Nicola is a chartered psychologist with a master’s degree in sport and exercise psychology, and she’s spent more than a decade supporting women’s health and wellbeing through yoga, meditation, and therapeutic practice. She’s also the founder of The Relaxed Woman, a movement and community dedicated to helping women recover from stress and burnout.

In this episode, Nicola and I are unpacking why rest feels so hard for women, why female entrepreneurs in particular struggle to switch off, and the practical rituals and strategies we can use to finally make peace with rest. If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down, or if burnout has been lurking in the background of your business journey, this episode is for you.
