289. Slowing Down to Speed Up

Are you moving quickly, or are you actually making progress? We're often taught that faster is better, but what if slowing down is the very thing that helps you move forward? In this episode, I'm exploring why strategic pauses can be one of the most powerful tools for creating meaningful, sustainable progress.

I share why slowing down can feel so uncomfortable, especially when we measure success through constant action, growth, or productivity. From business and personal goals to burnout, illness, and even horse riding, I explain why stepping back to reflect, recalibrate, and prepare is often what allows us to move forward with greater clarity, intention, and momentum.

Listen in to discover how to recognise when it's time to slow down, why pausing isn't the same as standing still, and how challenging your assumptions about progress can help you make better decisions. You'll leave with a fresh perspective on the relationship between speed and progress, and a practical way to create progress that lasts.
