About this listen

In this episode, I’m sharing something that took me way too long to learn: the power of slowing down.

For years, I stayed busy as a way to cope with grief, with pressure, with life. After my sister, Channon, passed, I didn’t stop to feel. I just kept moving. Work, school, building Life I Love, IVF. I kept piling it on. I told myself I was ambitious, but the truth is, I was avoiding.

Eventually, I started to see the pace of my life reflected in my daughter, the rushing, the anxiety, the constant forward motion. And that was my wake-up call.

This episode is about what slowing down gave me, how I’m learning to be more present, and how Dr. Philip Zimbardo’s Time Perspective Theory helped me reframe my relationship with time. That theory changed everything, the way I reflect on the past, show up in the present, and imagine the future.

If you’ve been feeling like life is speeding by, I hope this episode feels like a soft exhale.

In this episode, I share:

  • How grief showed up as overworking
  • The moment I realized my pace was impacting my daughter
  • What Zimbardo’s Time Perspective Theory taught me about balance
  • Small shifts that helped me feel more alive
