TAKE A PAUSE

Taking a pause could look different for everyone. Have you ever defined what taking a break looks like for you? For some people, it is a quiet walk on the beach, for others it's spending time alone or with friends, but ultimately it comes down to what feeds your soul. For me, I know that sunset walks on the beach, traveling, and deep conversations with friends refuel me. Having a support group such as friendships and a community has always been one of the ways I take a break. Not only does it feed my soul, but it also allows me to relax and build a deeper connection with others who I align with. I felt that many people might feel the same way, which is one of the reasons why I created the MembHership - a space for women to connect, support, and uplift one another.

If you saw our Instagram post with Simon Sinek, you know about the importance of taking a break to “sharpen our ax.” Our bodies can work like any machine. They need time to power off and regular maintenance. Essentially sometimes, we can tend to work ourselves into the ground by neglecting our self-care time. In fact, coming out of the pandemic we even have a new term for severe exhaustion called Resilience Fatigue. Have you heard of it? If not, you could be experiencing it yourself so take a look at our post on this as well to see if this describes you. Resilience Fatigue is when one becomes exhausted from trying to stay motivated or positive in the face of a multitude of heavy stressors in their lives. Sound familiar? I know I have been having some of these same symptoms. This is one reason why I do truly believe that our goal is to try to strike a balance between business and wellness to be whole. To align with ourselves and what we truly want in our lives.
