Pause

A monthly circle for midlife women to show up as themselves, be welcomed as they are and take a pause from life's pace and expectations.

When was the last time you carved out time for you? Time to check in with your body, slow down your mind and ponder what’s important to you. When was the last time you let someone see and hear you for who you truly are?

I ask this because midlife is a time of transition…

Emotional shifts that shake you like a snow globe, physical shifts that leave you wondering whose body you’re inhabiting, and spiritual shifts that ask big questions like, ‘who am I, is this it and what do I really want?’.

Fold this in with changing family dynamics, career demands, and all the ways you’ve been told you should be ‘looking after’ yourself; life can be exhausting, depleting and lacking in joy and spontaneity.

AND YET!

Midlife is a calling to step into your full power and potential. To review and adjust your inner sat-nav so that it aligns with who you are not what’s expected of you. It’s a time of deep reflection, transformation and evolution if you can find the right support to hold and sustain you.

That’s why I’ve created Pause – a circle for midlife women that meets you where you are by offering a space of tenderness and power, where you can listen and be heard; inquire and explore; hold and be held; grieve and grow.

So, if you’re craving genuine connection where you can relax, unravel and reflect, take a seat in our circle and let your soul pause for a while.

Welcome!

Step into your authenticity and truth.

Format of PAUSE Circle

Each month a small group – no more than 12 women – meet in person.

PAUSE is held by me Sarah Booth. It’s my role to hold the circle and feel into the needs of each member, the circle as a whole, and the context of our experiences.

I’m a coach BUT THIS IS NOT A COACHING SPACE.

PAUSE is a co-created space where each woman brings her stories, truth, vulnerability and wisdom to be witnessed and held. It’s your choice as to how much you share, and there will never be pressure. All I ask is that you’re committed to being present and sitting with an open mind and heart.

I can’t promise particular outcomes; the circles will feel different to each woman. What I can promise is a space delivered with a full heart, presence, sense of humour and generosity of spirit.

The Investment

PAUSE is £15 per circle.

There’s no ongoing commitment to attend.

Meet your PAUSE Circle guide

Hi, I’m Sarah. Woman, mother, creator, coach and space holder.

I’m a recovering people-pleaser, ‘do it all myself and never ask for help’ kind of personality who is now committed to creating a life that feels slow, supported and connected. A life where hyper-individualism, material accolades and outward appearances are replaced by community, connection, communal care, interdependency and a shared sense of HUMANITY.

I’m here to hold space for you to explore, share, tell and listen to stories so that you can navigate life feeling more supported, resourced, grounded and connected.

You are not meant to do this thing called midlife by yourself and you don’t have to.

I look forward to welcoming you.
