In this episode of Time to Press Pause, Ellen Williams sits down with Sophie Devonshire, CEO of The Marketing Society and bestselling author of Superfast: Lead at Speed, to talk about why strategic pauses are the fastest way to better decisions, clearer direction, and more sustainable momentum.
Sophie shares her “squiggly career” from P&G and Coca-Cola to founding and selling an e-commerce company, moving overseas, and writing Superfast.
You’ll hear how she builds micro-pauses into projects (pre-mortem, midpoint check, fast feedback), uses the “soak period” when navigating a transition, and why community and coffee chats are non-negotiable when you land somewhere new.
You’ll learn:
- How to slow down to speed up (and avoid headless-chicken mode)
- A simple cadence for year / mid-year / monthly reflection that actually sticks
- The “100 coffees” playbook to build a real network (friends, not just contacts)
- How to frame a break as a “strategic pause” so ambitious teams buy in
