Gentle Art Of Leadership Podcast – Eryn Lynum

Introduction

Eryn Lynum is a wife, mother, author, and podcaster. Her story took off with a viral blog post that led to the publication of her book, igniting a movement toward real rest in the lives of busy entrepreneurial moms. Amidst the demands of raising four children and managing a career, Eryn discovered the transformative power of the Sabbath, and found ways to unplug and truly rest. She shares how Sabbathing not only rejuvenated her but doubled her husband’s revenue; and emphasizes the importance of finding the right time for your Sabbath and aligning it with your family values. With her book on this topic set for release in early 2025, Eryn provides tips on how to integrate rest into your routine and the profound benefits it brings to your personal and professional life.
