In this gentle bonus episode, I share a warm check-in after my August break — a space to pause, reflect, and ease back into the season ahead.
I speak about what it’s been like to step away from work, from digital habits, and from the usual patterns of busyness… and what’s been surprising, helpful, or quietly confronting about that process. I talk about the Love Shrine at Shambala, revisiting my book The Heart of Change, and how the deeper work continues even (and especially) in stillness.
I also read a new poem — A Single Breath — and reflect on how the inner voice that used to write to 'My darling girl', now seems to be what (or who?) I am writing to.
If you’ve been wondering how to return after a pause, or how to meet yourself when the noise quiets, I hope this one meets you where you are.
