Have you ever felt like life just keeps speeding up, no matter how much you try to slow it down?

Yeah, me too.

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the power of pausing. Not quitting. Not giving up. Just… pressing pause.

Sometimes we get so caught up in doing, achieving, and pushing forward that we forget the magic that happens when we simply take a moment to breathe. To reflect. To just be.

Here’s what I’ve learned:

Pausing isn’t a weakness. It’s not a sign that you’re falling behind.

It’s a powerful choice. It’s giving yourself space to reconnect with what matters most. It’s creating room for clarity, for new ideas, for fresh energy.

I’m making a bold move this week – and it’s all about pressing pause. I’ll be sharing more about it on the podcast, and I want you to be the first to hear why I’m doing it.

If you’ve ever felt like life is just too full, you’re running on empty, or you need to tap into fresh energy, this one’s for you. Join me as I talk about why sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is take a break.

Listen here to find out more.

Trust me – you don’t want to miss it. I have a very important (and exciting) announcement. 

 With love,

P.S. - You know what’s not pausing? The fun I’m having on Instagram this summer. Come find me there @tonyaleigh.

The Transformative Power of Strategic Reset

Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you.

What if your next breakthrough is hiding in a nap? 

What if the solution you’ve been grinding for could arrive the moment you stop trying so hard?

Rest isn’t the absence of productivity – it’s the presence of wisdom. The most successful women understand that sustainable achievement requires rhythms of expansion and contraction, effort and ease. 

Sacred pauses aren’t about stopping your momentum – they’re about protecting it and ensuring it’s pointing in the direction that truly serves you.

I firmly believe in dressing for the day you want to have – but, truth be told, the days I pause, these pajamas are exactly what I want to be wearing.

There’s something about beautiful sleepwear that transforms the entire energy of rest. The Eberjey Gisele PJ Set has become my uniform for those intentional pause days when I need to step back and breathe.

The modal fabric is impossibly soft, and the relaxed cut feels elegant without trying too hard. When you invest in beautiful pieces for your downtime, it signals to yourself that rest isn’t lazy – it’s luxurious.

Why I'm Pressing Pause (and You Might Want To, Too)

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do in a world that demands constant motion is to stop moving. This week, I’m opening up about why I’ve decided to embrace a different kind of power – the power of intentional rest.

We’ll explore how to distinguish between productive pauses and procrastination, why our nervous systems crave rhythms we rarely give them, and how stepping back might actually be the fastest way forward. This is for anyone who’s been feeling the weight of always being “on.”
