This episode contains content that maybe distressing to some listeners

Another week, another set of tech issues. So this week I've decided to do a little throwback to one of the very first episodes of Slow It Down

This episode of Slow It Down is a little heavier than we usually go, but it's an important and inspiring story. Janelle Brunton-Rennie is one of the strongest people I know, and she speaks to me this week about navigating losing a partner and how important resilience is when we hit periods of grief in our life.

Grief isn't openly discussed in western culture, and this episode shines a light on what it's like on the inside, and I’m so grateful to be able to share it. Janelle also has some amazing rituals that she has developed to find moments of bliss which she still uses today.

There’s a particular feeling that comes with finding a quiet corner in a loud world, and that’s the space Slow It Down aims to create. Hosted by PJ Harding and presented by The Hits Podcast Network, this weekly podcast arrives every Sunday as an intentional pause. It’s less about adding another task to your list and more about carving out a genuine moment for yourself. You’ll hear thoughtful dialogues that weave together themes of personal well-being, cultural shifts, and practical self-improvement, all with a gentle, reflective tone. The second season continues this mission, offering fresh conversations with a variety of inspiring guests who share insights on living more mindfully. This isn’t a lecture or a rigid guide; it’s a companion for anyone feeling overscheduled and under-connected. Each episode serves as a gentle nudge to step back, breathe, and consider what matters. Tuning into this podcast feels like a small, weekly reset-a chance to unwind your thoughts and reconnect with a calmer perspective amidst the rush of daily life.
