Summary

I'm the type of person who over-thinks over-thinking. I lay in bed at night unable to sleep because I'm making lists of things to do (grocery lists, email lists, to-do lists, people-to-hug lists), and finding ways to continue following my dreams.

>>But sometimes thinking gets in the way living and this causes my brain to succumb to stress and lethargy.<<

In light of this, JD and I carve time in our calendars to just be. We share a Google calendar and block out days for resting and catching up…and we also add time for vacations.

Whether it’s a week on a tropical island or a staycation in our small apartment, these breaks were exactly what my brain needed.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Signs to take a break
How often to take a break
How to prepare to take a break

Enjoy your time off, friend… You deserve it.
