In this short (under 6 minutes!) conversation, I introduce you to Alesia Galati, the podcast strategist and founder of Galati Media, who is helping me professionally launch my new show: Just Rest: Burnout Tips for Everyday Radicals. At the 3:58 mark, Alesia says something that moved me to tears — and reminded me exactly why this podcast matters. I hope you’ll watch all the way through and feel as inspired as I did. 💡 When you give to support the launch, you’re not just backing my podcast — you’re investing in two women-owned businesses (mine and Alesia’s), and in a movement that believes rest is resistance in a world obsessed with grind culture. 👉 Give here: https://square.link/u/KGslefhX 🪧 And yes — supporters get their name read on the podcast and added to our Just Rest Wall of Fame. You’ll be part of the movement from the very beginning. About Nicole (Host) I’m Nicole Havelka, burnout coach, pastor, yoga teacher, and founder of the Defy the Trend community. I help people recover from burnout and reclaim radical rest as resistance to grind culture. Through Just Rest, I share practical tips and soulful conversations to help everyday radicals live more human, rested lives.
