About this listen
In this episode of Chats from the Country Lane, I talk about rest — and why so many men struggle to take it without guilt.
For a lot of us, rest feels like something we have to earn. We’re taught to keep going, stay productive, and push through tiredness. Especially as Black men and immigrant men, slowing down can feel uncomfortable — even wrong.
In this episode, I reflect on:
why rest often feels like failure
the pressure to always be “on”
rest as maintenance, not weakness
learning to pause before burnout
If you’ve been feeling tired — physically or mentally — this episode is a reminder that rest is allowed.
Take a moment. Walk with me on the lane.
