Resting Your Way to Revenue with Kate Kordsmeier

July 02, 20252 min read

In an inspiring session at the Art of Rest Retreat, Kate Kordsmeier shared her life-changing perspective on how rest can fuel business success. Kate, a successful entrepreneur for 15 years, realized she was deeply exhausted from trying to balance her entrepreneurial ambitions with her mental health struggles, leading to an epiphany about the value of rest.

Why Rest Matters

In a world obsessed with hustle culture, it’s easy to fall into the trap of working around the clock as an entrepreneur. However, this relentless effort often leads to burnout rather than results. Many assume rest means idle time, but it is about replenishing your energy and mental capacity. Kate’s journey highlights how crucial rest is not just for personal health but for the health of your business too.

What You'll Learn from Kate

From Kate’s session at the Art of Rest Retreat, you’ll gain insights into the life-altering effects of taking a step back from the daily grind. Discover how she redefined what it means to be productive while focusing on her mental health. Her story encourages a shift from the traditional mindset of relentless work towards embracing breaks as a path to creativity and renewed motivation. You will learn how integrating small, practical actions into your daily routine can lead to profound changes in mental well-being and business outcomes.

A New Way to Think About Rest and Revenue

Kate's experience challenges the notion that revenue demands nonstop effort. Instead, she found that stepping away often brought unexpected growth. While pausing from typical entrepreneurial duties, Kate’s systems sustained her business, achieving financial results beyond her expectations. She returned with renewed clarity, shaping a business aligned with her values.

MEET THE AUTHOR,
STEPH BLAKE

For years, I poured everything into building my business and raising my family—until I realized I lost a part of myself in the process.

I used to be deeply creative, finding joy in designing, making, and exploring new ideas.

But as life got busier, that creativity took a backseat to client work, to-do lists, and the daily demands of running a business and being a mom.

One day, I decided to slowly start creating again—just for myself.

I explored new hobbies to get a quick dopamine hit for my ADHD brain with no expectations or pressure. And everything changed.

Tapping back into creativity became a form of self-care, a reset button, and a way to feel connected to myself!

Now, through Create & Escape™, I help others rediscover that same creative freedom!
