Why do so many of us believe we have to earn the right to rest?
In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, Dr. Deb Lindh explores how trauma, family systems, workplace culture, and societal expectations can quietly teach us that our worth is measured by how much we carry. Together, we'll examine why exhaustion has become a badge of honor and how ancient Greek philosophy, modern neuroscience, and organizational psychology all point toward a different path—one rooted in balance, flourishing, and living fully.
If you've ever found yourself saying, "I'll rest when..." this episode is for you.
Join us as we explore:
You don't have to wait until everything is finished to begin living. Healing isn't about earning rest...it's about remembering that a well-lived life includes it.
If you or someone you know is struggling, support is available. In the U.S., you can call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. It is available 24/7 and free and confidential.
