the POWER of PAUSE: UNCORKED with ADAM HAMMERMAN

In this UNCORK conversation, Tim Windsor and Adam Hammerman explore the dynamic tension between pursuing bold goals and embracing the power of “pause.” Through personal stories, practical insights, and compelling lessons, they challenge listeners to rethink the glorification of constant busyness and discover how intentional pauses can transform personal resilience and professional success.

Adam shares how a life-changing experience motivated him to push past his limits and become a volunteer EMT, teaching the importance of turning discomfort into growth. Tim reflects on the wisdom of creating margin in life, inspired by a farmer’s lesson on letting land lie fallow to regenerate. Together, they unpack practical strategies for recharging without guilt, honouring rest as a tool for productivity, and creating space for meaningful human connections.

Key Challenges and Lessons:

Breaking the Cycle of Burnout: Are you running so hard that you risk burnout? Adam and Tim discuss simple ways to press pause and regain clarity, even if you’re not ready for an entire “Sabbath” day.

Creating Margin for Growth: Learn why leaving "space" in your schedule, finances, and energy—just like a farmer leaves part of the field unharvested—can empower you to thrive rather than just survive.

Respecting and Empowering Others’ Downtime: Tim and Adam explore why respecting others’ rest—whether in your personal or professional life—is a vital leadership skill that builds trust and loyalty.

This episode offers practical wisdom and real-life applications for anyone ready to run hard, rest well, and live with intention. Don’t miss this inspiring conversation!
