What Stops Us In Our Tracks

…It’s about those life-changing moments that make us pause, reflect, and reassess everything. I’m gathering stories from individuals who’ve experienced a moment so impactful it stopped them in their tracks—whether it was a turning point, an event that brought their world to a standstill, or a shift in perspective. Through these shared experiences, I want to explore what truly moves us as humans and how these moments shape who we become.

How You Can Get Involved

Share Your Story
I’d love to hear about a moment that made you stop in your tracks. It could be something you overcame, a pivotal decision, or a life change—whether big or small. I believe everyone has a moment worth sharing when life slowed down and forced you to reflect, change, or grow. Your experience could resonate with someone else and help them reflect on their journey.

How to Submit
It’s simple.
Just send me an email (I read every one of them) and share your story. I’m looking for raw, authentic reflections—there’s no right or wrong way to express what moved you. Every story matters.
