Walking around my local streets with a radical prompt for you this afternoon, dear friends: what if by ploughing ahead trying to achieve all the things, we miss out on the serendipitous?

Thinking about how to have enough this lunchtime and an invitation to get involved with a fresh set of journal prompts on our new theme. Walking in the park behind St George’s Hospital, keeping my eyes peeled for the 16 Pets as Therapy dogs that are on a lunchtime walk today.

Welcome to the start of our new podcast series, Series 56, centered around the thought-provoking theme of ‘Enough!’

As we look forward to the new series, I wanted to provide you with your first set of journal prompts, offering you a dedicated space for reflection, maybe even self-discovery.

Consider this your invitation to carve out a little time just for you. Perhaps brew a comforting drink, open your favorite notebook to a fresh page, sharpen your pencil, and allow yourself 20 minutes of uninterrupted writing in response to the prompts below.

Remember, there’s no need for perfection – these are simply for your own personal exploration.

Sometimes, the act of pondering can lead to unexpected insights, perhaps a solution to a nagging problem or a catalyst for positive change in your life. It might not surface immediately; an ‘aha!’ moment could just as easily arrive while you’re doing the dishes, 36 hours from now!

Please find below your first set of prompts on the theme of ‘Enough!’, dear friends. This is just the beginning:

Prompt 1 Think of a time when you felt you had just about enough of something – be it a frustrating situation, a demanding task, or even a strong emotion. What did this experience feel like for you? Did you notice any specific emotional responses or physical sensations? Describe these if you can.

Prompt 2 Take a moment or two to consider why this particular instance of feeling ‘just about enough’ has come to mind today. What makes this specific memory stand out to you at this moment?

Prompt 3 Reflecting on this past experience, what unfolded next? Did you initiate a change? Did you reach out for support? Perhaps the action you took brought resolution, or maybe you made a conscious decision to approach things differently in the future. Do you recall how your initial feelings evolved over time?

Prompt 4 Jot down a few thoughts on how this past experience might connect with the way you make choices in your life today.

There is no need to share what you’ve written. However, if you feel moved to share your reflections, or if you’re inspired to record a voice note for the upcoming podcast episodes (beginning on Monday), I would be delighted to hear from you. Reply to this email to leave a comment, or head over to SpeakPipe to leave 90 seconds of your beautiful voice for Walk the Pod: https://www.speakpipe.com/Walk_the_Pod

Wishing you a lovely Friday, dear friends. I can’t wait to get started with this new series of episodes with you from Monday.
