Welcome to The Permission to Pause

Hi there,

You are receiving this because at some point, our paths crossed. Maybe we shared a coffee chat. Maybe you came to a Recess, an Inward Hour, or a Play Lab or were part of the Working Momma Sanctuary. Maybe we worked together 1:1. However it happened, I am glad you are here.

I created Permission to Pause for women like us — women who carry a lot, move fast, and rarely give themselves a moment without guilt attached to it.

What this is:

A short monthly read designed to help you build calm in the middle of your chaos. Each issue gives you one small, guilt-free way to pause: a journal prompt, a breathing exercise, words that remind you that you are seen, and a look at what is coming up at RAA.

What to expect:

• A monthly theme tied to creating more peace in your day

• Something you can do in under 60 seconds (breathe, reflect, reset)

• Upcoming RAA events and the latest RAA Talks Podcast episode

• A 3–4 minute read. That is it. No overwhelm.

What this is not:

Another thing on your list. If this no longer serves you, you can unsubscribe anytime at the bottom of every email. No guilt. No questions.

I am glad you are here. The first issue drops in September.

With presence,

Raihana
