Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just plain tired? This isn’t a glow-up guide. It’s a gentle reset.

Pause, then Pivot™ is a warm, wise, no-fluff journal for the woman who’s been holding it together—at work, at home, in her mind—and needs a soft place to land. Whether you're navigating burnout, grief, anxiety, a life pivot, or just don’t feel like yourself lately, this guided journal will help you catch your breath, gather your thoughts, and move forward without pressure.

Inside you’ll find:

• ✍🏽 Reflective prompts to process emotions without overwhelm
• 🧠 Tools rooted in neuroplasticity, self-awareness, and emotional regulation
• 🛠️ Real strategies for anxiety, catastrophizing, loneliness, and more
• 💬 Pivot sections that help you shift gently out of mental loops
• 🧘🏾‍♀️ A Self-Support Checklist you can actually stick to
• 💌 Permission slips and affirmations that feel like exhale—not performance

This is not a toxic positivity workbook. It’s not a 30-day glow-up plan.
It’s a journal for when you're done pushing through and finally ready to pause, reflect, and move forward—on your terms.

You’re not broken. You’re just overdue for a reset.
✨ Come as you are. Start where you are. Pivot when you’re ready.
