Imagine if you could follow your ambition without drowning in it – how much more fulfilling life would be? That’s what Pause Purpose Play is all about – finding balance over burnout by setting you free from needing to be perfect, so that you can take action and get started with what matters to you, instead of getting stuck in procrastination and holding yourself back with self-limiting beliefs your inner critic tells you. In this podcast, Michaela Thomas, Clinical Psychologist, Couples Therapist and founder of The Thomas Connection, shares bite-sized learning around psychology of performance, habits, self-confidence, stress, anxiety, perfectionism, parenthood and couples relationships. The podcast will mix solo episodes with guest interviews; diving deep into their professional zone of genius and learning about how they have found pause, purpose and play in their life and in their work. My new book, The Lasting Connection, is available now from all good bookshops.

Do you frequently jump on things and then overwork yourself, regretting doing this activity?
Ask yourself this:
Is this a wise choice of how to spend my time?
Is this activity driven by my values or by my pressure to achieve?
Is this going to light me up, and refuel me through my passion?
Will doing this drain my energy further, or replenish it?
Can I do a smaller version of this, rather than going all in?
Can I take any shortcuts?
What would it look like if it was easy?
Some of you may know I had my second baby in September, and recorded lots of podcast episodes before that, whilst I was still pregnant.
Instead of jumping into recording lots more podcasts now, I am making some wise choices with my time, taking some shortcuts.
I am still here, you will still get more episodes, but as and when it suits me and my baby.
