In this Growth Spurt, Dr. Gabby Caviedes reframes how we think about rest and recovery, not as something you earn, but as a critical performance habit. She explains why high performers often treat recovery as optional, how lack of rest quietly limits growth, and offers a simple, practical framework for building sustainable recovery routines. This episode challenges productivity guilt and shows how small, consistent recovery practices protect performance, prevent burnout, and help you show up better every day.
