The Return Series: Return to Slowness

from Girl On A Hill Hosted by Bekki Lindner, Jolene Lau, Sydney Naumann & Krystal Wagner

In today’s episode of The Return Series, we are talking about returning to slowness. For many of us, the very word feels uncomfortable. We’ve been conditioned to believe that our worth is tied to our speed: that if we aren’t optimized, rushing, or producing at peak capacity, we’re failing. But this constant state of 'hurry' is draining us, leaving our souls weary and our nervous systems on edge. Today, we’re looking back at a time when the world actually protected our pace - when life had built-in buffers, fewer transitions, and a natural resistance to being packed edge-to-edge. We’ll explore how we traded a human tempo for an artificial urgency, and more importantly, how we can begin to return. From refusing false emergencies to reclaiming the dignity of a pause, it’s time to stop living as if every moment is an emergency. Because slowness isn’t a lack of productivity. It's the space where we actually start experiencing our lives again.
