Feeling mentally and emotionally drained but convinced you have to keep pushing through?

This episode is for you.

If you're running on fumes but your instinct is to try harder, work longer, and push more - you might be doing exactly what's keeping you stuck. In this episode, I share the story of a high-achieving client who was beating her head against a brick wall until she learned the power of pressing pause.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • The difference between inevitable pain and optional suffering
  • Why "trying harder" often makes everything worse
  • How one client found the door she'd been missing by stopping her run toward the wall
  • Why clarity comes from pause, not force
  • The simple practice that can shift everything this week

This isn't about giving up on your goals - it's about getting out of your own way so you can actually reach them.

Ready to stop running into brick walls? Get daily love letters every day in September that remind you there's another way. These aren't another thing for your to-do list - they're one-minute reminders that you don't have to do life the hard way.
