​

Jo works at the same bar since graduating college and as her friends seem to be moving forward in life, Jo feels stuck. Things get complicated when her ex-boyfriend, Patrick, moves back to town after the two haven’t spoken in months. The two must confront their lingering feelings as they try and navigate what they want, personally and professionally. This is a romantic comedy at its core, exploring common themes within the genre such as discovering who your person in life is, being honest with your feelings, and overcoming whatever obstacles come between you and the one you love. 

Love is messy and confusing. Pace Yourself does not shy away from the frustration that comes with having complex emotions such as being in love and trying to know what the right thing to do is when it comes to your feelings. It draws its inspiration from great romantic comedies of the modern era such as Palm Springs and I Want You Back as well the classics of the 80s, 90s, and 2000s like When Harry Met Sally, 10 Things I Hate About You, Crazy Stupid Love, and more.
