In today's episode, we’re so excited to chat about something we all deserve and definitely need: taking time off as a business owner! Join us as we share how we're planning our own well-earned holiday breaks and show you exactly how to prepare your calligraphy business for some blissful downtime. Because, let’s be real, stepping away from your creative hustle shouldn’t have you stressing over missed emails or client confusion!

We cover everything from setting up vacation responders and closing out those lingering projects to making sure your clients feel extra appreciated before you sign off. And we’re not stopping at the holiday break—let’s get proactive about your post-holiday game plan! We talk about refining your services, updating pricing, and polishing all your client-facing materials so that when you come back refreshed, you’re ready to rock 2025 like the boss you are.

If you’ve been wondering how to take time off without sacrificing your customer relationships or business momentum, this episode is your roadmap. Grab a cozy drink, settle in, and let’s get you ready for a stress-free holiday season. You’ve earned it!
