I sat down with La-Doniea, founder of Breakthru, who is creating spaces for women to slow down, be present, and actually rest…not as something we earn, but as something we require as a human be-ing (and not a human do-ing).

We talk about what it means to choose yourself, especially as women and caretakers who are so used to pouring into everyone else first. La-Doniea shares how her experiences, her family, and her Jamaican roots inspired her to create retreats, community events, and intentional spaces where women can unplug, be taken care of, and just exist for a moment.

This one is a gentle but powerful reminder that rest isn’t lazy…it’s necessary. And sometimes the most healing thing we can do is nothing at all.

If you’ve been feeling stretched thin or constantly “on,” I think this conversation will gift you a little lift and maybe the inspiration for a little more rest too.
