Time for a refresh and a little focus on investing in myself. I called on my friend @naturaleye_ photography and @ambertaylorartistry to bring a vision to life.

I never thought I would become a plant person.
But somewhere along the way, plants became part of how I learned to slow down.

When life felt particularly busy ( or pure chaos) and sometimes just plain unpredictable..there was something about watering a plant, moving it toward the light, or propagating a cutting and waiting for those first little roots to appear.

You can’t really rush it.

And I think I needed that.

I spend a lot of my life solving problems, thinking about what’s next, and keeping things moving. Plants gave me something that didn’t need to be solved.

Just cared for.

And there is a quiet kind of joy in watching something grow because you took the time to tend to it.

These days, I’m trying to notice more of those small things.

A cup of tea.
My feet in the grass.
A new leaf on a plant I was pretty sure I had killed.

Nothing profound.

Just small reminders to slow down enough to actually enjoy the life I’m working so hard to build. by @eeoconsults

For the first time in many years more than I care to admit…I took time off and traveled without my work computer.

Now, I did have several phones with me. 😂
I know. I know. Baby steps.

But I needed to pause.

I wanted to be present with my husband and celebrate 30 years of marriage. Thirty years of life, love, family, change, joy, hard seasons, laughter and choosing each other again and again.

And it reminded me of something I think many of us need to hear:

We get to be full humans.

Our work can matter deeply to us without being all of us.

We can be committed leaders and still step away.

We can care about the mission and still prioritize the people we love.

And most of us are not doing life-saving work. The email can wait. The meeting can happen without us. The team can make a decision.

In fact, part of leadership is building teams and partnerships we trust enough to keep moving when we are not in the room.

So I’m reminding myself, too:

Take the trip.
Celebrate the anniversary.
Go to the birthday.
Have dinner with your people.
Put the computer down.

Pause long enough to be present for the life you’re working so hard to build.

Thirty years was worth the pause. ❤️ by @eeoconsults
