Beautiful people,

Let me confess something: I used to think resting was for the lazy. That if I wasn’t working, grinding, or pushing something forward—I was falling behind.

But these days, I know better. I’ve learned that rest isn’t just recovery—it’s revelation.
And wealth isn’t built only in meetings and markets… sometimes, it’s built in stillness and surrender.

In 2020, I started a small ritual I now call my Financial Sabbath. One day a month to pause, reflect, review the books (both spiritual and financial), and ask God: Am I chasing noise or walking in wisdom?

Some of my biggest financial downloads came when I wasn’t even working. I was praying. Journaling. Napping! (Yes, napping. Rest is spiritual☺️)

Because here’s the truth I’ve come to know:
Hustle without holy instruction is just glorified stress.

And as we honor the Sabbath, let’s not forget the power of gathering.
God never intended for us to do life—or rest—in isolation. There’s a divine strategy in community.
Don’t ignore the gathering of the righteous.
Go to church. Lift your hands and your burdens.
Let your candle be lit by another. Observe God’s splendor through His people.
That too is wealth.
That too is rest.
That too is strength for the week ahead.

So today, I invite you to pause with me.
Not to plan, perform, or stress. But to listen.
To reflect on the wealth you already carry, the doors you’ve ignored because they didn’t look like hustle, and the pace your soul was designed for.

Rest is a wealth tool. Don’t leave it out of your portfolio.

Let’s normalize naps, journaling budgets, and trusting God with the blueprint.

Now go ahead and put your feet up—you’re still being productive.
