Let me ask you something…
When was the last time you properly stopped?
Not paused while checking emails.
Not scrolled LinkedIn for “research”.
Actually stopped.
Slowed down.
Took a breath.
If you’re like most business owners I know, the answer’s somewhere between “ages ago” and “never.”
But here’s the thing:
Some of the biggest breakthroughs in business don’t come when you’re hustling harder – they come when you give yourself space to think.
Space to reflect on what’s working (and what’s not).
Space to recalibrate your energy.
Space to come back stronger.
Resilience isn’t just about grinding through the tough stuff.
It’s about building the capacity to bounce back.
And you can’t do that if you’re running on fumes or when your head is full of ‘stuff’
One of my clients recently told me that stepping away from the day-to-day – even just for an afternoon – gave them the clarity to solve a problem they’d been stuck on for weeks.
The solution was there all along.
They just needed to slow down long enough to see the ‘wood for the trees’.
My coaching to all clients is to diarise and prioritise ‘thinking’ time away from the ‘noise’ at least once a week.
So if you’re feeling stretched, scattered or just a bit stale – take it as a sign…
Not to push harder.
But to pause.
Clear the ‘noise’ in your head.
Reflect.
Refocus.
You might be surprised by what comes up when you do.
You’re not alone – we all need the reminder sometimes.
