When Two Women Truly Stop to Rest Together


Hi Reader,

Let me tell you about something magical that happens when two women create space to truly see each other.

Picture this: Two women sitting together. Not networking. Not fixing. Not comparing. Just BEING.

One might be staring down a career change. The other? Navigating the vast, sometimes terrifying landscape of an empty nest. Their stories are different, but their hearts? Completely in sync.

What Happens in Those Moments of Real Connection

When women pause and create intentional space to rest and share, something profoundly healing occurs. It’s like watching two wounded warriors lay down their armor and breathe.

They don’t try to solve each other’s problems. They don’t offer quick fixes or toxic positivity. Instead, they witness. They listen. They create a container of such radical acceptance that healing becomes inevitable.

The Alchemy of Feminine Connection

This is how resilience is truly built. Not through grinding harder. Not through pushing through. But through:

• Vulnerability

• Authentic sharing

• Radical rest

• Deep listening

When women come together like this, transitions stop feeling like something to survive and start feeling like sacred passages of transformation.

Your Nervous System Knows the Truth

Your body has been trying to tell you something. That constant state of fight-or-flight? Those decisions that don’t feel like “you”? The fog of uncertainty?

It’s a call for reset. For connection. For intentional pause.

Adhana

"The most productive thing you might do today is deciding how your workday will end." Reader, I want to share a personal journey that transformed my relationship with rest and self-care during perimenopause. It's a simple story about creating boundaries that might resonate with many of you navigating similar waters. For months, my evenings followed a downward spiral pattern. I would set a reasonable 10pm bedtime, then I'd mysteriously become wired just as the hour approached. The day's...

Hi Reader, Lots of people quote Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King's most famous excerpts. Not a lot of people read his letters, speeches or understand the lineage of thinkers who inspired him. I spent some of MLK day cuddled up with a book Dr. King read and re-read during the Montgomery Bus Boycotts, Jesus and the Disinherited by Howard Thurman. Thurman was a contemporary of Dr. King's father and a mentor to Dr. King. Thurman led a delegation to meet Mahatma Ghandi in 1936 and over his lifetime...

The day of my book launch I also got a call from my boss saying that I was passed over for promotion a second time. The next day, my book made the Amazon bestseller list at number 2, just below The Autobiography of a Yogi, one of the seminal books on yoga in the west. You might think, well, if they don’t appreciate you, make money from your book launch and just walk away. But, the book was written as a labor of love to benefit the yoga therapy profession. I will not receive any of the...
