The Power of the Pause: Rebuilding in Alignment

In this solo episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of one of the most important seasons of my business and life—the quiet recalibration that happens when what once felt aligned no longer fits. This isn’t burnout or self-sabotage; it’s evolution. I share what it looked like to feel the nudge that it was time to rebuild, how I learned to sit in the silence instead of forcing clarity, and the courage it took to let go of offers, relationships, and dynamics that no longer matched who I was becoming.

I also talk about how discernment—not drama—became the catalyst for my next level of alignment and what’s coming next for my business, my coaching containers, and this podcast. If you’ve been feeling the whisper that something in your world no longer feels true, this episode is your permission slip to pause, listen, and trust your knowing—because clarity always comes when you make space for it.

QUOTABLES:

“  I've been doing this long enough and I've done enough work on myself to know the difference between sabotage and a true soul aligned shift. From my experience, sabotage feels like hiding. Shrinking. The fear of being seen. This was different. This was a gentle, grounded knowing of, this isn't it anymore.” - Julie Solomon 

“  Everything that is starting to unfold, it finally matches my energy. Again, the energy of who I really am today. It doesn't feel forced. It doesn't feel scripted. It doesn't feel like I'm pretending to be someone or love something just because it works. It doesn't feel like I am forcing myself to do some kind of business in a certain way, or I've gotta do a launch this way, or I've gotta do this branded photo shoot this way, because that's what other people do. It's the kind of alignment that you just can't manufacture. And in order to get there, you have to make space for it. That big, scary, quiet space for it.” - Julie Solomon
