The rest is the form of work that looks like rest but is actually the underground preparation — the roots growing, the structure strengthening, the things that cannot be seen preparing for the things that will be seen."

He’d even put up blackout curtains to create a cocoon-like atmosphere. “What is this?” I asked. “Your rest sanctuary. For the next three days, this is your world. No phones. No laptops. No news. Just rest.” He helped me settle on the couch. “Jake and I will handle everything else.” Over the next three days, I learned what it meant to truly rest. No client emails. No business strategy. No worrying about Richard’s next move. Just me, a stack of books I’d been meaning to read, and the baby moving peacefully inside me.

After that, I spend an hour in the gym downstairs, and then I grab some lunch before wandering into the rec room with a book my dad sent me called Finding Your Center: The Busy Woman's Guide to Inner Peace and Tranquility. I make it three pages before I start to feel antsy. It's too easy to let my mind wander while I'm reading. My thoughts keep going back to my argument with Luca last night.
