Ep 32: An Interruptible Life: Making Room for What Matters Most

from Aligned Living with Dr. Autumn · host Autumn Swain

What if the interruptions we work so hard to avoid are actually invitations to become more present, resilient, and fully human? In this episode, Dr. Autumn sits down with Chrissy Weeks, Executive Director of DC127, to explore what it means to live an interruptible life. In a culture that ties our value to productivity and constant accessibility, Chrissy challenges us to consider what our response to interruption reveals about what we value, and what might change if we made more margin for God, ourselves, and the people around us. Chrissy shares stories from her work with families impacted by the foster care system, illustrating a truth as humbling as it is universal: even the strongest among us still need people, and community can build the resilience necessary for lasting change. This episode is an invitation to ask how you respond when you're interrupted, where you might need more margin, and whether you have the kind of community around you that helps you flourish. Because sometimes becoming more whole isn't about adding something else to your life. It may be about creating space to be interrupted.Guest Info: Chrissy Weekswww.dc127.orgArticle Link: https://mailchi.mp/dc127/living-an-interruptible-lifeIntro and Outro Music Credit: Savage by Beat Mekanik, Free Music Archive, License type: CC BYPlease visit: www.autumnswain.comContact: [email protected]: @drautumnswainFB: Autumn Alena Swain
