Silence shows up in small ways every day.

The pause before you reach for your phone.

The quiet while you’re waiting.

The space between words.

In this episode, you’re invited to notice how you relate to those moments, without fixing or filling them.

Sometimes staying with silence for one extra breath is enough to soften the moment.

Awareness creates calm.

Today’s Five Star Minute invites you to slow down before the year takes over.

Choose one word — not a goal, not a resolution — a feeling you want more of in your life.

Write it down. Place it somewhere you’ll see it.

Return to it throughout the day and notice what shifts.

One word.

One minute.

A different way to begin.
