What if I do nothing more? What will that mean about me?

I find myself in a season of rest.
And as much as my highest self wants to fight it, I’m craving a step back.

Not to do.
Not to add.
Not to chase a new idea or scale my business.
Not to start a new habit or routine.
Just... be.

But I fight it—with too much coffee.
Then an occasional energy drink.
Trying to make myself GO, when all she’s asking for is to be still.

I scribble out rigid schedules—black and white boxes of “must-dos.”
To-do lists with more than any human could finish in a day.
False deadlines. False urgency.
All to convince my brain to move when my spirit’s asking to pause.

And by bedtime, I’m drained.
Mentally. Physically. Emotionally.
I dread waking up to another round of this.

But after weeks of morning coffees and afternoon Starbucks runs…
After B vitamins and productivity hacks…
I finally heard the whisper:

This is a season of Discovery and Discernment—not Decision-making.

So I asked myself:
What kind of life do I want to be living?
What do I want the next six months to look like?
How can I design my days to support the shifts happening within me—and around me?

And now, I’m turning those same questions toward you.

But first—I had to get real with myself.
Why was I pushing so hard when everything in me was resisting?

That’s when I remembered:
My worth is not in what I do.
My value, my success, how deeply I’m loved—none of it is attached to my output.
And yet... that’s still a chain I’m working to break.
Anyone else?

So this month, I’m inviting you into self-reflection.
To release the pressure that may have served you once—but isn’t serving you now.
To ask:
Am I living the life I really want?
If not, what needs to change?

This is not a permission slip to quit the habits that have been fruitful.
It’s an invitation to sit with the Holy Spirit.
To open your hands and ask for an audit of your heart, your pace, your path.

And if you’re reading this thinking,
“Nope, I’m good! I’ve got rhythm, I’ve got peace. I’m hitting my goals and feeling strong”—
I just want to say: I’m so proud of you.

And still—may I invite you to pause, too?

To sit with gratitude for this beautiful season.
To let that gratitude fill your cup so deeply, it can carry you when life throws its curveballs.
Because at some point... it will.

Here’s to transitioning from summer to fall,
From striving to seeking,
From deciding... to discovering.

Love you, friends. 🤍
