Season 2, Episode 5: Learning How to Honor Time
In this episode, Dr. Jolene Carlton, a pediatric nurse practitioner reflects on how her relationship with time has evolved over the past two years and the lessons that growth has brought along the way. Through personal and professional experiences, Jolene explores how honoring time is less about productivity and more about intention, alignment, and presence. She shares how changing seasons, expanding responsibilities, and deeper self-awareness have reshaped how she approaches her work, her life, and the way she moves forward.
This conversation invites listeners to reconsider the belief that progress requires constant output and instead embrace the understanding that capacity changes, priorities shift, and meaningful work often unfolds quietly behind the scenes. Jolene also offers insight into how choosing presence—whether through movement, rest, or lived experiences—can strengthen clarity, leadership, and purpose.
The episode also touches on exciting projects currently in development, offering a glimpse into what’s ahead while emphasizing the importance of allowing ideas and initiatives the time they need to be refined and completed well.
This episode is a thoughtful reflection on growth, perspective, and learning how to move forward with intention—honoring time not as a limitation, but as a guide.
