Description

This summer, I made a bold move - I put my business on sabbatical. Not because I couldn’t keep going, but because I realized the most strategic thing I could do was pause.

In this episode, I’m sharing exactly how I knew it was time to rest instead of push - and how you can tell the difference in your own life and leadership. If you’ve been stuck in go-go-go mode and you’re wondering if you’re just tired or actually done, this one’s for you.

I TALK ABOUT:

• Why I chose to rest during my busiest season yet (and how it’s actually helping my business)
• The sneaky signs that it’s time for a break - like resenting the work you used to love or feeling disconnected no matter how productive you are
• What strategic rest really looks like (spoiler: it’s not doing nothing - it’s doing the right things with clarity and intention)

TIMESTAMPS:

• [00:00] Why I chose to take a summer sabbatical - and how it aligned with my 2024 word of the year, EASY

• [08:15] How we’re maintaining momentum with minimal effort
• [09:40] How this reset is helping me be present for my kids (Camp Mommy, anyone?)
• [11:00] Why you don’t need to “earn” your rest - and how a mentor helped me see it differently using powerlifting
• [12:20] How rest helps you break through your next plateau
• [13:00] My challenge to you: What’s your biggest clue that it’s time to rest instead of push through?
