#85-Time Sensitive: An Urgent Call to Reconnect with Your True Self

Own Your Yes Podcast

You know those emails marked time-sensitive? The ones that make you pause and pay attention? Consider this your version of that—but instead of a deadline or a task, it’s an invitation. An inner nudge from the part of you that’s quietly asking to be seen.

Dr. Phyllis knows this feeling all too well. There was a season in her life where she was constantly overcommitted, always doing, always chasing—yet deeply disconnected from herself. You are not just the sum of your roles, your tasks, or your accomplishments. You are a whole, valuable person—worthy of joy, rest, and presence. And if you’ve been feeling stretched thin, there are signals trying to get your attention.

Here are three time-sensitive calls to reconnect with yourself:

1. You can’t find yourself beyond your responsibilities.
2. You feel invisible inside your own life.
3. You’re under constant pressure but feel little joy.

These signals aren’t signs of weakness—they’re invitations. They’re reminders that it’s time to pause, breathe, and come back to yourself. Dr. Phyllis encourages you to ask this question each day this week: “Who am I beyond what I do?”

Because this isn’t just about slowing down—it’s about remembering what matters. It’s about reclaiming your joy. This is your time-sensitive call to reconnect with the person you were always meant to be.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:

“These signals aren’t signs of weakness. They are signs to pause and breathe and to come home to reconnect to who you are”
