Ever heard of the Burnt Toast Theory?
It’s the idea that when something small goes “wrong” - like burning your toast - it might actually be life protecting you from something bigger.
Missed a meeting?
Took a wrong turn?
Got stuck in traffic?

Maybe… that pause, that delay, that “ugh” moment saved you from something you couldn’t see coming.
As a life coach, I’ve seen this mindset shift change how people relate to their day, their stress, their past.
👉 What if your detour isn’t a failure, but protection?
👉 What if your delay is actually divine timing?
You don’t have to love the burnt toast. But maybe, just maybe, you can trust it.
