What if rest isn’t a break from real life—but the key to living it well?
In this episode, I sit down with Ruth Chou Simons, artist and bestselling author, to talk about rest, dependence, and freedom in God’s timing. Together, we explore how to stop striving, embrace your limits, and live with a heart at peace even when life feels busy.
