The Joy of Slowing Down - Laura L. Smith

In this episode of GraceStory Podcast, we sit down with author and speaker Laura L. Smith to explore what it means to embrace the joy of slowing down in a world that constantly demands we speed up. Together, we reflect on the sacred value of presence, the healing power of rest, and how intentional stillness can lead us into deeper joy, peace, and intimacy with God.

Laura shares personal stories, practical rhythms, and biblical wisdom that invite us to rethink our pace, rediscover delight in the everyday, and lean into a lifestyle that prioritizes connection over productivity.

If you've been feeling hurried, burned out, or just plain tired—this episode is your sign to breathe, pause, and receive the rest and connections that can only be found when we slow down.
