Welcome to Hit Pause, Then Play!

Who am I?

Hey there! I'm Julie Harris, a professional pyromaniac 🔥 - not the dangerous kind, but the kind that intentionally sparks people, ideas and solutions. As a researcher, writer, editor, experience designer, and coach, I'm on a mission to ignite positive change through the power of the "5Ps": Pause, Play, Passion, Purpose and Pleasure.

What's this all about?

Hit Pause, Then Play is your gateway to exploring and applying the 5Ps in your life. Right now, I'm diving deep into a practical application that's close to my heart: Conscious Relationship Design.

This work is all about:

  • Designing freedom and autonomy in intimate relationships

  • Exploring monogamy, ethical non-monogamy, and everything in between

  • Mastering open communication (and understanding the role of secrets)

  • Creating relationships that foster growth and expansion

But don't be surprised if we occasionally venture into other fascinating applications of the 5Ps. Life's too short to limit our curiosity, right? 😉

What you'll get:

As a free subscriber, you'll receive:

  • Deep dives into Conscious Relationship Design 1-2 times a week

  • Thought-provoking insights that'll make you pause, ponder and play with new ideas

  • A monthly "3-2-1" newsletter featuring:

    • 3 things I'm thinking about

    • 2 things inspiring me

    • 1 spark just for you

Want to dive deeper?

Upgrade to a paid subscription and unlock:

  • A monthly 15-minute one-on-one chat about Conscious Relationship Design with yours truly

  • Exclusive access to my behind-the-scenes research

  • The opportunity to be a beta reader and shape my work before publication

  • Priority responses to your comments and emails

Who is this for?

This publication is perfect for:

  • Curious souls who love to question the status quo

  • Relationship explorers seeking new ways to connect

  • Anyone looking to inject more intention and joy into their life

If you're content with the conventional and prefer not to rock the boat, this might not be your cup of tea. But if you're ready to reimagine relationships and life itself, you're in the right place!

Let's connect!
