PAUS - In It for the Long Run

Self-care shouldn’t feel like another thing on your to-do list. We help you take breaks that actually work—without the guilt.

PAUS didn’t start as just another wellness brand.

It began when my life came to a complete halt. After nearly 30 years as an ambitious CEO and leader, I was suddenly struck by Long COVID—a condition that conventional medicine had few answers for. Overnight, my high-achieving, always-on life was replaced by exhaustion, debilitating symptoms, and frustration with a body I no longer recognized.

The hardest lesson? Learning that rest—real, intentional, guilt-free rest—wasn’t optional. It was survival. At first, it felt impossible. I had built my identity around productivity, and if I had looked at myself from the outside, I would have labeled myself lazy or self-pitying. But my body made it clear: if I didn’t slow down, I wouldn’t recover.

Slowly, I discovered the power of pauses. Small changes—reducing screen time, cutting out ultra-processed foods, establishing better sleep habits, and taking micro-pauses throughout the day—drastically reduced inflammation, improved my mood, and restored my energy.

That’s why I founded PAUS—for women like you. Women who are juggling a million things, who put themselves last, who feel guilty for taking a break. PAUS is here to change that.

💛 Our Mission? To help women embrace rest as a necessity, not a luxury. To show that small pauses make a big difference. And to build a community where self-care isn’t selfish—it’s survival.
