94 Pressing Pause

from A Brilliant Gamble · host Blaire Palmer

We are in! We moved in to the smallholding last week and are starting to get used to being settled after so many months on the road. It’s very strange to put things in a cupboard knowing you won’t have to take it all back out in a matter of days! Moving house and starting a new lifestyle can be stressful and is certainly busy. Which is why today’s show is about “pressing pause” when things get hectic. Many of us find that hard to do. When we’re busy the idea of stopping, taking a breath, checking in on ourselves and foregoing some of the activity isn’t natural. We are used to pushing through, getting it done, painful as it might be. We don’t want to let people down, we don’t want to be slow, we don’t want to admit we can’t do it all (because we can but it requires us to go beyond normal human capabilities). In this episode I talk about why and how I’m pressing pause... and why you might want to as well. If you want MORE insights and support as you change your life A Brilliant Gamble Online is for you!
