DEEPLY RESTED PODCAST

Ep. 31: Crystalizing Visions & Clarifying Plans: Behind-The-Scenes April 2025 with Maegan Megginson & Nancy Guidry

Have you ever felt the urge to slow down, tune in to the natural rhythms around you, and create something that truly reflects your authentic self?  What if the beauty is in the messy middle of that creation?

In this episode, Nancy and I invite you into our process of launching something new: a monthly behind-the-scenes series within the Deeply Rested podcast. This episode kicks off with our April check-in, where we reflect on how we’re applying the energy of spring to crystallize our vision and clarify our plans for the upcoming months.

While navigating the messiness of the season, Nancy and I chat about the importance of slowing down to reflect on the moment, intentionally deciding what to create, and allowing for the surprises that emerge in the process. We touch on how creating space for these moments of reflection allows us to align our business with life’s rhythms and natural cycles.
