It’s coming to a time of year where you might be planning some time away from work, whether that’s a full holiday, a clear weekend, or even just not working in the evenings if you usually do. The trouble is, we’ve all also got a thousand things to do, and often end up telling ourselves that we don’t have time to take a break or that we will only feel guilty if we do. In this episode I take you through a process of deciding what you need, planning what that could look like, and addressing the worries you have about taking the time for yourself. 

If you liked this episode, you should check out my pair of episodes on how to prepare for your academic summer - one focuses on “acceptance and resistance” and the other on “structure and freedom”.
