“If you need a break take one. Yes, even you--you blogger,  biz owner, content creator, hustla, grinder, girl boss. Trust me that empire you’re building will still be there when you get back. Your rest + peace of mind is key to making all that you’re working on sustainable."As you probably have noticed The Sunday Jumpstart Podcast + NoRealJewelry was recently on a month-long hiatus. That's right I didn't create any new content during the entire month of July. Why? Well because your girl was completely BURNED OUT!  Which is hard to admit because I am all about that #DreamChasing life. I have Oprah sized goals so I don't mind rolling up my sleeves to get dirty doing the dream work. But I overdid it and hustled so hard I wore myself out. So I had to press pause and get quiet so that I could take care of myself, reconnect with my why and strategize the next steps I want to take in my life and business.Related: Why I Took A Break + How It Helped Me Become A Better BloggerNow before I went completely off the internet grid I noticed that a few of bosses that I admire were also stepping back to take a breather from the non-stop grind.
