  <title>239: The Power of &amp;quot;The Pause&amp;quot; with Molly Schreiber</title>
  <description>Some people build businesses. Some people follow a calling. And sometimes… those two things become the very same path. This week on The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth, I sit down with fellow Iowan and “Molly Squared” guest Molly Schreiber, founder of Challenge to Change and the nonprofit Mindful Minutes. What started as a young teacher’s love of education became something much deeper after unimaginable loss. After losing her first husband in a car accident at age 30 while raising three children under three, Molly found herself returning to one unexpected anchor: yoga. That quiet hour at the YMCA became the lifeline that helped her regulate her grief, reconnect to herself, and ultimately reimagine what education could look like for kids, teachers, and even workplaces. Today, her programs serve hundreds of schools across Iowa — teaching breath work, resilience, emotional regulation, and mindfulness practices that ripple far beyond the classroom. This conversation is about:   turning wounds into wisdom   creating space for “The Pause”   helping kids build tools we never learned ourselves   and trusting your inner compass when life changes course   If you’ve ever wondered how personal pain can become purposeful work… this one’s for you. What You’ll Hear in This Episode   Molly’s journey from classroom teacher to mindfulness founder   The loss that reshaped her life and leadership   How yoga helped her navigate grief as a young widow and mom   Why kids today need emotional regulation tools more than ever   The “5 Parts of Practice” framework used in schools   The surprising number of thoughts (and emotions!) we process daily   Bringing mindfulness into workplaces and healthcare settings   What it means to live aligned with your “noble goal”   Why “The Pause” might be the most important practice of all   Resources &amp;amp;amp; Links   Challenge to Change: https://challengetochangeinc.com   Mindful Minutes: https://mindfulmins.org   Email Molly: molly@challengetochangeinc.com   Follow Molly Knuth + The Found Podcast   </description>
