Pause The Noise
Pull Up A Chair
It's In You
The Rooted Pause
You know what everyone else needs. What do you want?
You can keep everything moving and still find yourself wondering, “Where am I in all this?”
Perhaps there’s an idea you keep putting aside. Perhaps you want more enjoyment, different company or time to discover what interests you now.
The Rooted Pause is an online community for women exploring simpler living, friendship and what matters to them. Through everyday reflections, nature, herbs and small conversations hosted by me, we make room to hear ourselves again.
Pause the noise. Pull up a chair. It’s In You.
There’s a Chair for You
Inspired by Thoreau’s three chairs—one for solitude, two for friendship, three for society—we make room for time alone, closer conversation and shared experiences. Choose what suits you.
Solitude
Time to hear yourself
Daily Pauses and Pause Journal prompts to explore what matters to you, in your own time.
Friendship
Someone to talk it through with
Three Chairs brings three women together online, hosted by Debs. Share an idea, explore a question or simply feel heard.
Society
A place at the table
Join us at Koppány Pines for nature, tea, food and conversation through The Living Pause and our Pause Tables.
You’re welcome to take part entirely online. Visiting Hungary is an option, never a requirement.
Meet Debs
Capable on the Outside. Questioning Myself Within.
I’m a mum, an accountant and a survivor, with a working life spanning property, music and event management. There’s never been just one side of me.
I could carry responsibility and still doubt myself. Eventually, I realised I wanted more than to keep everything going. I wanted to know what life could feel like when there was room for me in it.
I began by working on my self-esteem, joining groups and finding encouragement from other women. Moving to rural Hungary gave me space to explore another way of living.
Today, I’m a trained mindful nature guide and certified tea blender. Growing herbs, making tea and welcoming people at Koppány Pines have helped shape Rewild with Hygge—my philosophy of bringing nature, warmth and simple pleasures into everyday life.
The Rooted Pause brings those experiences together with the company that helped me begin: women listening, sharing and encouraging one another to trust themselves.
I’ve found a life that feels more like mine. What might yours look like?

Wondering If This Is for You?
You Can Begin Where You Are.
You can start by reading the Daily Pauses, explore a journal prompt or express an interest in Three Chairs. Take your time finding what suits you.
How do I begin?
Follow the Daily Pauses on our Rewild with Hygge Facebook page. Read along, explore a question or join the conversation when something speaks to you.
What happens in Three Chairs?
Three women meet online in a conversation hosted by Debs. Bring an idea, a decision or something you’d like to talk through. We listen, ask questions and share perspectives, leaving you room to decide what fits.
Do I have to share personal things?
You choose what you share. You can take time to get comfortable, and you’re welcome to pass on a question.
Does it cost anything?
Following the Daily Pauses and taking part in Three Chairs is free. Teas, journals, stays and any paid events are offered separately, with no obligation to buy.
Do I need to visit Hungary?
You can take part entirely online. If you’d like to meet in person, Koppány Pines offers stays, shared meals and gatherings in rural Hungary.
How do I join Three Chairs?
Send Debs a message to express your interest. She’ll let you know about availability and how the conversations work before you decide to take part.
Come as You Are
You can be capable and uncertain, full of ideas or short on energy. Start with whatever interests you—a question, a journal prompt or a conversation. There’s room to take part at your own pace.
How We Keep It Welcoming
In Three Chairs, we make room for each woman to speak and ask before offering advice. We ask everyone to respect privacy and leave other women’s stories within the conversation. You choose what you share and which perspectives you take away.
Pull Up a Chair.
What’s been on your mind lately—an idea, a decision, or the question, “What do I want now?”
Start with our Daily Pauses on Facebook, or message me about Three Chairs if you’d like some company to talk it through.
