What if slowing down is exactly what you need to move forward?


In this refreshing episode of OVERFLOW with Kimberly Snider, Kimberly sits down with Gerda Pier for an insightful conversation about the power of slowing down, disconnecting from technology, and reconnecting with nature.


For entrepreneurs and high-achievers, constantly being connected can make rest feel impossible. Gerda shares her personal journey toward wellness and stillness, including how listening to her body led her to a new path and eventually inspired her to create wellness retreats designed to help people step away from the noise and reconnect with themselves.


Together, Kimberly and Gerda explore how unplugging, spending time in nature, and creating intentional space for rest can support greater clarity, creativity, self-awareness, and well-being.


In this episode, we discuss:




  • Why disconnecting from technology and spending time in nature can help reset your nervous system and create greater mental clarity
  • How rest and stillness can help entrepreneurs prevent burnout and reconnect with the insights they often miss when they're constantly busy
  • The importance of listening to your body and intuition, especially when life is signaling that it's time to slow down
  • Simple ways to create more space for self-care, presence, and reflection even when you don't have time for a full retreat


Whether you're an entrepreneur, leader, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the pace of modern life, this conversation is an invitation to step away from the noise, fill your own cup, and rediscover the power of simply being present.
