Is it ok to press pause on your business for a month?

This summer you might have heard business owners talking about taking big chunks of time off, or taking August off, or even the entire summer.

When you work for yourself it can take over your life. You can’t turn off your work phone at 5pm on a Friday and walk away from your computer.

You worry whether your clients might be upset if you don’t respond on a weekend, and you live, sleep and breathe your business.

Being in the thick of it 24/7, 365 days a year can be exhausting though, and if you’re burnt out, it’s not helping you or your clients.

In this podcast episode I’m exploring the whole ‘pressing pause’ topic, why we can find it hard, and what can happen if we do.
