Imani Ellis
- Between life and running my company, CultureCon, I felt burned out.
- It became clear that I needed to take time off and create space to reignite my creative spark.
- I've just returned to New York with a clarity I haven't felt in a very long time.
I have a confession: Until about a month ago, I had never mastered the art of sitting still.
I was always moving from something to something and truly believed that rest could wait. As a recovering workaholic and former athlete, I assigned intrinsic value to my ability to produce consistent results. Therefore, rest felt foreign to me, shame-inducing even.
