Permission to Pause – A 30-Day Journal for the Overwhelmed, the Overachievers, and the Tender Souls Who Forgot How to Breathe
Not another productivity hack.
Not a guilt trip in disguise.
This is your invitation to rest. To soften. To take up space without needing to earn it.
Each day, you’ll answer one playful, powerful “Magic Question” designed to gently shift your focus from what’s wrong to what’s possible.
No pressure. No performance. Just 30 days of noticing, releasing, and slowly coming back home to yourself.

🧡 NOTES FROM THE CREATOR:
Hi. I made this because I lived this.
I know what it’s like to feel like rest is dangerous. I know what it’s like to forget how to play, to pause, to breathe.
This journal is not about fixing you. You’re not broken. You’re just tired.
This is a soft place to land. Welcome home.
– Mary
Feel into it. If this speaks to your soul, it’s yours.
