What happens when life forces you to stop?
After the recent cyclone left Dr Peta and the Vera Wellness clinic without power, this week’s episode of Women of the Well is a little different – recorded at Dr Thea’s house with no proper microphones, just an honest conversation about what it feels like to truly slow down.
Peta and Thea reflect on the past week of stillness, disconnection (literally), and the unexpected lessons that come from being forced to pause.
They discuss:
🍃 The unexpected gifts of slowing down – how the absence of power, screens, and schedules created space for presence and connection.
🍃 How modern life pulls us out of alignment – and why we’re often trapped in a cycle of productivity that doesn’t serve our bodies or well-being.
🍃 The impact on children – what happens when kids aren’t rushed, and how their natural state teaches us about being fully present.
🍃 Listening to your body’s signals – why symptoms like pain, stress, and exhaustion might actually be messages asking you to change your pace.
🍃 Small but powerful shifts you can make – rethinking work, commitments, and what’s truly essential for a life that feels fulfilling.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re running on autopilot, constantly doing instead of being, this episode is an invitation to rethink what you actually need – and what you don’t.
