On episode 85 of Outside The Studio:

Feeling guilty about not making as much money as your partner, because you want to pursue a more meaningful career? That's our culture talking. Jill Rose and Tessa Tovar chat on why women feel the need to prove themselves in their work, the importance of rest, and what it looks like to
be a life coach.

Jill is a life coach for women, yoga instructor, speaker and facilitator whose purpose and passion is to lift, nurture and guide women to realize their innate and powerful brilliance and to help them stop playing small in their lives so they can live in confidence,
clarity, joy and freedom.

Key Takeaways

1. In our society, women's value is tied to our output and productivity. If we make more, we are valued more; if we have high
financial success, our value is high as well. Entrepreneurship for women can be difficult, especially when there is a shift in financial “power” with her partner, because she no longer makes as much. However, this isn't true. You are valuable just the way you are and there is nothing
you need to do to prove that.

2. The three types of rest are layered like concentric circles. On the outermost circle, there are restful activities to do monthly or quarterly, like a weekend getaway, or a day dedicated to reading and other hobbies. On the next circle in, there are
daily practices for rest such as meditation, journaling or other quiet and still exercises. Finally, in the center there are practices for immediate rest when you find yourself in a stressful or anxious situation. It could be breathing exercises, grounding techniques, or a long hug with a
trusted friend.

3. When learning something new (like training to be a yoga instructor!), remember that it will all fall into place. Trust yourself. Imitate the new material, integrate the teachings into your flow, and innovate new methods. You have everything it takes to do this,
trust the process and your teachers.
