Do you ever feel guilty when you take a break from work?

In this week's episode of The Powerhouse Revolution Podcast, I share why it’s ok to take your foot off the gas and prioritise your well-being and happiness just as much as productivity.

You are a woman in a leadership position. You have work demands, family responsibilities, and societal pressures, so it can sometimes feel like you are constantly on the go, moving from one task to the next. 

It's easy to get caught up in the never-ending cycle of work and productivity. But it's crucial to take a step back and allow yourself some spaciousness to recharge your mental and physical health.

If you've recently transitioned from a super busy period to a slower pace, it's completely normal to feel uneasy. 

Tune in to this week's episode for tips and tricks to prioritise your mental and physical health.
