This week on Growing Tall Poppies, I’m coming to you from breathtaking Interlaken, Switzerland — where the mountains meet the lake, and the stillness invites deep reflection.

The past few days have been about rest, recovery, and gentle exploration as my daughter continues to heal after falling seriously ill on our Europe trip. Thankfully, she’s feeling a little better each day — but like her mother, she has FOMO (fear of missing out) and doesn’t want to miss a single moment.

This got me thinking about the tension so many of us feel during healing — the pull between wanting to experience everything life offers and the need to slow down to truly recover.

In this heartfelt episode, I share:

• 🌄 The life and healing lessons I’ve learned from Switzerland’s lakes and mountains
• 💡 Why FOMO often intensifies for people in Post-Traumatic Growth
• 🛑 How to shift from “fear of missing out” to the “joy of missing out”
• 💤 Practical strategies for resting without guilt and still feeling fulfilled
• ❤️ The importance of presence and small, intentional moments in your healing journey

If you’ve ever struggled with slowing down — or felt like you were missing out while trying to heal — this episode will help you see rest as a gift, not a sacrifice.

🎧 Tune in and learn how to balance adventure and recovery so you can heal without regret.
