#160 - A Sacred Pause 

How Rest created Space to receive a Miraculous Healing

When you’re caught in the spiral of constant activity – especially in the wake of a catastrophic injury, during the high-stakes weeks of rehabilitation – it can feel impossible to break the momentum in order to rest. But that might be exactly what you need most. In this week’s story episode, follow Louise as her family and community step in to make it possible for her to step away from Archer’s bedside and create enough space to receive a message that was waiting to find her at exactly this moment. You may find the inspiration you need to schedule yourself a break, or find whatever spaciousness you can right now to receive the blessings that are trying to reach you, as well. Here we go.

In this episode:

Diane Beliveau is an executive presentation skills instructor with Dale Carnegie Training. At the time of Archer’s accident, she was also the President of the Catholic Business Network in Baltimore of which Louise was a member.
