    #163 - The Power of Pausing: Creating Space for Alignment and Growth

    In this episode of the Lose Weight Live Life podcast, I delve into The Power of Pausing, exploring how stepping back can lead to meaningful growth and alignment. After a break, I’m back with insights on the benefits of taking pauses in life to reflect on what truly matters in life. I discuss how pausing a little over the past 6-months has allowed me to realign with my core values—connection, freedom, growth, and beauty—and how these can guide us towards a more fulfilling, balanced life. I talk about how pausing and reflecting in life can benefit us when it comes to weight wellness, health, and relationships. We’ll explore the signs that indicate it might be time for you to pause and reflect. And I offer practical ways to create space for self-reflection and realignment. By embracing intentional pauses, we can cultivate a more intentional life path and bring greater purpose to our day-to-day lives. If you’re ready to reconnect with your values and set intentions for a fulfilling future, this episode is for you.   About Clair: CLAIR MACKENZIE IS A LIFE & WEIGHT COACH WHO HELPS FEMALE PROFESSIONALS AND ENTREPRENEURS LOSE WEIGHT BY TRANSFORMING THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH FOOD AND THEMSELVES FOR LIFE.
