Hi mates, I just wanted to pop back in with a quick update, as many of you have been checking in. I’ve had a couple of complications from my surgery back in mid-February, and it’s taking me longer to recover than I had hoped. Rationally, I know this time is about rest and recovery, and I also know what I would say to anyone else going through it:
Brooke, I love to see you walking your talk. You do far more good by modelling taking a break when you need it than you ever could by pushing through -- there's no essay you could write that would be worth forcing yourself.
Thinking of you and do all the tilting you need, we'll still be here. Honestly I would have been happy to keep paying regardless but understand if that takes the stress off you. Look after yourself 🥰
Tilting, showing up for yourself, walking the talk, taking good care ~ all the things 💚 The Tortoise and all of us will be here when you’re ready - take all the time you need, dear Brooke🐢 💚
Dear Brooke, thank you for your update and for showing us all that it is okay to take care of ourselves. I love your letters and I’m sorry that life has been harder lately. Wishing you good recovery and many beautiful hours in your garden. Take care!
Glad you’re taking care of yourself, Brooke. By sharing here you’ll be helping so many more do the same. (Your post title threw me for a moment because my podcast is called Pressing Pause!) x
Brooke, That was kind of you to let us know, and may this next period of healing have some good moments for you, too. Your words help me get through the hard bits. Hopefully words from the Tortoise community will do the same for you. 💜
Dear Brooke, ALL that matters is you. Your health and wellbeing are way more important right now and deserve to be prioritised. We will be right here ready to accept the gift of your writing when you are ready. 🤗💚🤗💐

Take as long as you need💕
❤️ Feel better soon Brooke and take all the time you need. Thank you for your example.
Saluting you living in your values. You are missed and I will be here when you are able to return.
Missing seeing your writing but so glad that you are taking the time you need to heal.
Look after yourself and so very looking forward to seeing you back here once you are ready
