Why Slowing Down Was the Best Decision I Ever Made


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m sharing my journey into slow living—the ups, the downs, and the moment everything shifted for me. As a busy mom, I was running on empty, trying to do it all, until a life-altering moment made me stop and really take a hard look at my priorities.

I’ll talk about how learning to set boundaries and create space in my life not only improved my mental health but also strengthened my relationships with my family. Slowing down has been a game-changer for me, and the best part? It’s not about flipping your life upside down—it’s about a mindset shift that helps you focus on what truly matters.

Join me as we dive into the heart of what slow living can look like and why it might just be the reset you didn’t know you needed.
