We couldn't think of a better way to wrap up Season 2 than with a vacation episode! Today, we're kicking back and looking forward to the summer ahead, and want you to do the same.
Make sure to check out our summer reading list at the end of this episode!
Episode Highlights:
- Reason #1 To Take A Vacation - You need it!
- Running and managing a private practice can be exhausting and overwhelming... You deserve a break!
- It's important to relax, recharge, and refresh
- Reason #2 To Take A Vacation - Find inspiration!
- Ideas tend to come to you when you least expect them
- Bring along a pad of paper, or use the notebook app in your phone, and jot down ideas that pop into your head for your business
- It's important not to act on these ideas while you're on vacation so you can enjoy yourself!
- Reason #3 To Take A Vacation - Do you know how your business operates while you're away?
- Removing yourself from the day-to-day operation of the business can give you a glimpse into what is working correctly and what could use some tweaking
- Are you able to actually step away? Do you still need to log in to check emails or answer questions for your team? Are there processes that could be automated?
- Not everything will run perfectly when you allow yourself to take your first vacation, but this is an opportunity to better your business!
- BONUS Reason #4 To Take A Vacation - Lead by example!
- If you are responding to emails, overseeing operations, and aren't able to step away from your phone or computer, your team sees that!
- They will think that is expectation that will be placed on them when they decide to take a vacation, so it's important to show them that they are allowed to take a step back, just like you are!
