You love God. You care deeply for others. You carry responsibility well. From the outside, your life may look successful, meaningful, even inspiring. But somewhere along the way, you became disconnected from yourself. You keep going because that's what you've always done. You show up. You serve. You achieve. You hold everything together. Yet beneath the full calendar and endless responsibilities is a quiet question you can't ignore: Is this really the life God created me to live? Below the Circle is the podcast for women who are ready to stop circling on autopilot and start landing—creating intentional Landing Moments™ that reconnect them to God, themselves, and their lives. I'm Dr. Phyllis Hayes-Reams—physician, ordained minister, Life Landing Coach, and creator of the Landing Plan™. After years of striving, performing, and living disconnected from my own life, I discovered that the answer wasn't doing more. It was learning to land. Each episode offers practical wisdom, biblical encouragement, honest conversations, and simple practices to help you recognize when you've drifted into autopilot and gently retur…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-30T00:17:31.951986+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/below-the-circle-6619723"},"episode":{"title":"135.

In this episode, Dr. Phyllis unpacks the pattern so many of us live in without questioning. We keep moving, managing, and showing up, but rarely slow down enough to actually feel our own lives. Over time, constant motion starts to feel normal, and stillness begins to feel uncomfortable. This conversation gets to the root of that. The drive to keep going didn’t come out of nowhere. It was learned, and at one point, it likely served a purpose. But what once helped you navigate one season can quietly begin to hold you back in the next. Dr. Phyllis draws an important distinction between crashing and choosing to rest. One happens when you’ve pushed too far. The other requires intention. Throughout the episode, she invites you to pause, pay attention to what you’re feeling, and notice when you’re slipping into autopilot. This is a grounded reminder that stillness isn’t empty. It’s where clarity returns. And learning to slow down, even in small ways, is how you begin to show up for your life in a way that feels real again. http://drphyllishayesreams.com/ https://www.instagram.com/drphyllishayesreams/ https://www.facebook.com/phyllis.hayesreams","meta_description":"What happens when staying busy becomes the only way you know how to function?
