Take 5 minutes to recharge your social battery


A 5-Minute Practice to Recharge Your Social Battery

I'm curious, Reader ... what size social battery do YOU have?

My personal battery's capacity is pretty small (like AAA equivalent) and needs frequent recharging. Social situations and interacting with large numbers of people leaves me feeling drained.

Perhaps that's why working from home suits me so well?

If you're an introvert like me, you know the importance of resetting and recharging. And if you're an extroverted "people person," you, too, need to take care of yourself and recharge your battery to be at your best.

That's why I'm sharing today's video meditation to help you enjoy connecting with others ... something we all crave yet don't always have the "battery power" for.

And while this may be more noticeable at the holidays, it applies year-round.

So I hope you'll use this 5-minute mindful breathing practice to ground and balance you whenever you need it.

As always, I'd love to know what you think of this week's newsletter. Post your thoughts on social and tag me (@coachmichelepeterson), or simply reply to this email!

Take 10 Minutes to Celebrate the Progress You Might Be Missing Hey Reader, It’s the end of June. The end of Q2. And, yep — somehow the year is already halfway over. Whether the last few months were a blur or a bit of a slog, now is the perfect time to pause and take a breath. Because if you’re anything like most WFH entrepreneurs I know, you’re probably doing a lot more than you’re giving yourself credit for. And when you’re juggling it all — running the business, building the brand, doing...

Don’t Wait for a Big Event to Reach Out Hey Reader, Working from home can be empowering … but also a little isolating. And during summer — when people are vacationing, kids are home, and routines shift — it’s easy to fall into solo mode without even realizing it. That’s where this "trick" I discovered with milestones comes in ... Yes, we usually think of milestones as personal progress markers. But here’s a reframe: Milestones can be powerful prompts for connection, too. This week’s blog...

Celebrate More. Hustle Less Hey Reader, Ever seen a toddler take their first step? The room erupts. Clapping, cheering, maybe even tears. One tiny step … and we instinctively know it’s a big deal. But somewhere between baby steps and business plans, we stop celebrating progress like that. We wait for big milestones — the revenue leap, the launch, the polished result — and skip right past the smaller wins that actually get us there. This week, I want to challenge that. Because when you’re...
