SLOW is the new Superpower: Get serious about why slowing down matters

Slowing Down: A Superpower for Awareness, Healing, and Discernment with Jill Novak & Chelsey Beda

In this episode of Sister Science Stories, Jill and Chelsey explore the transformative power of slowing down. In a fast-paced world that glorifies busyness and productivity, they discuss how embracing slowness fosters deeper self-awareness, better decision-making, and overall well-being.

Topics Covered:

🔹 Embracing Change & Organic Growth – Why slow integration is essential for sustainable transformation.

🔹 Relearning Self-Care in a Fast World – Challenging the “superwoman” myth and prioritizing well-being. (Here is the Under The Influence Episode where we learn how marketing invented this stereotype)

🔹 Prioritization & Discernment – The power of saying yes, saying no, and listening to your body’s wisdom.

🔹 Slowing Down as a Superpower – How slowness cultivates connection, intuition, and clarity.

🔹 Overcoming Dysfunctional Patterns – How journaling and mindfulness help rewire limiting beliefs.

🔹 Mindful Eating & Digestive Health – The link between slowing down and better digestion, both physically and emotionally.

🔹 Slowing Down for Self-Advocacy – Why setting boundaries and tuning into your own needs is essential for true well-being.

Throughout the conversation, Jill and Chelsey share personal experiences, insights from Ayurveda and Yoga, and practical strategies to shift from external urgency to internal wisdom. They invite listeners to rethink their relationship with speed, redefine success, and embrace slowness as a path to deeper healing and sovereignty.
