What’s the first thing you do in the morning?

If the answer is checking your phone, it’s time to start intentionally choosing where you put your attention.

That’s why I created the 7-Day Power of Pause Challenge.

Bitesized exercises to help you notice the life around you.

Day 1 starts with holding 10 minutes in the morning, screen-free.

Take the challenge with me:

A friend who observes the Sabbath said something to me recently that hasn't left my head:

"A day without the phone is better than a holiday with it."

No notifications. No scrolling. No half-presence while your mind is somewhere else. Just one day, fully here.

Assuming the baton can be handed off when the time comes.

Great transitions happen long before the handoff.
