Ep. 88 | The Power of the Pause Before You React

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

In today's episode, I'm talking about what happened at my dog's daycare that taught me about the space between impulse and action. I share how I got self-righteous about a pass extension, and then a snowstorm showed me how wrong I was.  We'll explore why the pause is everything - and how to find the grace to not react when we're agitated. Question to carry into your day: Where in your life are you reacting without pausing - and what would it look like to find the space between your impulse and your action?
