5 ways to make the most of a break you didn't choose

Hi Reader,

Has life ever hit the brakes for you?

Maybe it was a job that ended before you were ready. A parent who suddenly needed you. A surgery or an injury, and a recovery that took far longer than anyone promised. Or simply a season when everything stopped, and you weren't the one who decided.

I've had a few of those. Four, actually, over the last three years. The first one took me out of my career and, eventually, led me here to Lifeticity. The most recent one has been the toughest yet because I thought it was all behind me.

For a while, I'll admit it, I wallowed. Then one day I realized that wishing the time away wasn't making it go any faster. So I decided to try to make something of it instead.

That decision is what this week's blog post is about. The Power of a Pause looks at the pauses we never plan for, and five ways to make the most of one when it comes.

Not by being productive at all costs, but by resting first, taking an honest look around, and choosing one small thing that can change the whole course.

👉 Read The Power of a Pause

As for what I made of my own pause? If you click through to the blog this week, you might notice a few changes. Consider it a sneak peek. The full story is coming next week.

In the meantime, if you're in a pause of your own right now, I hope you're giving yourself the same care you'd give a friend. And if you feel like sharing, just hit reply and tell me about it. I read every note.

🩷 Warmly, Susan
