In this episode of Do Better with Debra, I’m joined by Jasmine Brett Stringer, award-winning author, keynote speaker, and founder of Carpe Diem with Jasmine.

Jasmine shares the REST framework, which she created during a profound season of grief and growth. Designed with Black women in mind, REST offers a practical way to think about wellbeing without hustle or shame:

R — Recovery
E — Emotional agility
S — Support
T — Time

We talk about why rest isn’t a luxury, how to stop living in time poverty, and what it looks like to reclaim your energy while still leading, working, and showing up.

If this conversation resonated, share it with someone who needs permission to slow down and a framework to actually do it.
