Feeling stuck can make you question yourself, but stuck is not the same as broken. Often, what looks like stagnation is actually a pause—an internal reorganization preparing you for what comes next. Compassion, not pressure, is what helps movement return.

Starting again can feel unsettling when you don’t yet know where you’re headed. But not every beginning requires a plan. Sometimes, what you need most is a moment of stillness—a place to stand—before clarity can emerge. When you allow yourself to pause, ground, and breathe, direction often reveals itself gently, one steady step at a time.
