I never thought I'd be
saying this, but I am taking a sabbatical! And in this episode, I'm
sharing all the behind-the-scene details of that decision and the
logistics to make it happen. I'm getting into everything from why I
need an extended break to what the goals of time away are for me,
and a sneak peek of what is to come when I return (hint, things are
going to be A LOT different). This sabbatical will definitely be a
leraning experience for me, and I'm happy to share the journey with
you all in case it is something you may consider now or in the
future!
In this
episode, we cover…
- The lack of resources out there for taking a sabbatical as an
entrepreneur
- Mindset shifts needed when you decide to take a break
- 5 steps to consider logistics in extended time away from the
business
- A preview of what will be changing for the business upon my
return
- The role of life and mental health in my decision to take a
sabbatical now
Quotes
"I've really had to
kind of figure this out on my own, and if I'm being 100 percent
honest, I'm taking an experimental approach here, which, yes, if
you're wondering, is fucking terrifying"
"If you make it
happen, it is a very rare, intentional, and undivided time to have
for yourself. To have no other responsibilities, to reflect, to
focus on whatever it is that you are needing to focus on."
"You're a human being
before you're a CEO... Remember this isn't a game. This isn't an
Instagram feed. This is also your literal life. You are the only
one that has to wake up every day. And so you better make sure
you're fucking happy. You better make sure you fucking like
yourself and what you're doing. And that you're living life."
