Rest, Reset & Real Talk: Lessons in Slowing Down

from Let's Try This Again with B. Simone · host Dear Media

Welcome back to Let’s Try This Again—I’m your host, B Simone, and this episode is both real and refreshingly honest as I pull back the curtain on my own journey with hustle culture, rest, and self-discovery. I get vulnerable about how hard it’s been to slow down after years of being in constant “go mode”—from juggling an at-home podcast setup (y’all, production is NOT for the weak!) to taking real breaks from social media and learning how to be still without feeling guilty. I share what I learned during my week with a friend in Kansas, how witnessing the daily grit of single moms inspired me, and why taking time to reset is actually a game changer—not a setback. PLUS, I open up about a surprise date that made me reflect on femininity, friendship, and my desire to be truly seen for who I am. Whether you’re struggling to rest, navigating your own self-worth, or just need permission to date from a place of wholeness, this episode is packed with relatable stories, insight, and motivational takeaways you can use right now. //SPONSORS// Arya: Go to Arya.Fyi/trythisagain and get 15% off your first order.
