You’ve burned out before. Maybe more than once. And every time, you did what you were supposed to do: made a plan, pulled yourself together, pushed through.
 
But this time feels different. This time, your body is saying “no more” and your mind can’t think its way out.
 
Permission to Pause is not another self-help manual. There are no 30-day challenges. No vision boards. No pressure to have it all figured out by Friday.
 
This is the guide I wish I had during my last burnout, when I finally stopped asking “what’s the plan?” and started asking “what do I actually need?”
 
What’s Inside:
9 Gentle Sections Including:
Why pausing isn’t failing (and the neuroscience that proves it)
The Deep Check-In: Honest questions about where you really are
What you’re allowed to put down (even if it feels selfish)
The Keep/Pause/Release Framework for sorting your life without overwhelm
Body-based practices for when your nervous system is stuck on high alert
Why your anxiety spikes at small things (like a phone ringing) and what that means
Permission to move slowly backed by trauma psychology and burnout research
 
This Guide Is For You If:
You’re exhausted from trying to “bounce back” from burnout
Every decision feels urgent, even the small ones
You feel guilty for needing rest (even though you’re running on empty)
You’re tired of productivity advice when what you need is permission to stop
You’ve been pushing through for so long you’ve forgotten what you actually want
You need someone to tell you: it’s okay to not have a plan right now

20-page downloadable PDF guide (printer-friendly)

This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about finding your way back to yourself.
