Description:

 275: “Most of the things, especially at the beginning, are challenging. Often, honestly, living authentically, living intuitively, intentionally, all these words is the harder path, is really freaking challenging.” - Rachel Levine


Feeling allergic to stillness? Same. Chelsea chats with writer, guide, and founder and owner of Intuitively Wild, Rachel Levine, about why slowing down feels terrifying — and why it might be the bravest thing you can do for your nervous system, your career, and your life. 


Episode themes:

  • Stillness isn’t always soft — sometimes it brings up everything you’ve been avoiding.
  • If you think “ If I stop, I’ll never start again” — that’s how you know you need to stop the most.
  • We’ve trained our nervous systems to believe rest is dangerous.
  • Living in alignment doesn’t mean you quit your job and move to a cottage — it starts with one honest moment.
  • Your shame gets louder the more you hide it. Bring it to the light and watch it shrink.


Rest isn’t a reward — it’s a right. Whether you’re drowning in Slack pings, sprinting toward a dream, or wondering why your “wellness routine” feels like a full-time job, Rachel’s words are an invitation to sit still, soften, and listen. Spoiler: you don’t have to move to a lush forest or light sage at your desk to do it.
