The Patty project

Yesterday I spent the day with a dear friend — the kind of connection that reminds you how important it is to slow down and simply be present.

We talked, laughed, took a few detours, sat by the ocean and let time stretch. Nothing was rushed. There was no agenda — just space to breathe and reconnect.

Moments like this are a quiet reminder that wellbeing isn’t always about doing more or fixing things. Sometimes it’s about meaningful connection, feeling safe to be yourself, and allowing your nervous system to settle.

These are the moments that refill the cup and help us show up more grounded — in our lives, our relationships and the work we do with others.

This is exactly what I needed.

My nervous system is grateful.
