This week on Married with a Business, as the Town Little League wraps up and big changes loom, we're talking about something we finally did: completely disconnecting for a whole week at Disney!

We've preached the importance of "white space" – those short, intentional breaks – but a full week of truly stepping away from the business was a game-changer. For business owners, it often feels impossible to unplug. We get it. We've been there, still checking emails on "vacation." But as we navigate balancing our business with the fleeting moments of our boys' childhoods, the need to build in real disconnection becomes clearer than ever.

In this episode, we're diving deep into why intentional disconnection is not just a luxury, but a vital strategy for your personal well-being and the long-term success of your company. We'll share our firsthand experience of what it was like to truly unplug, how it sparked fresh perspectives and boosted our creativity (hello, "shower syndrome" moments!), and why it's essential for preventing burnout, improving decision-making, and even enhancing productivity.

You'll hear how stepping away strengthens your team by fostering delegation and revealing system gaps, ultimately making your business more robust. Plus, we'll explore how intentional breaks help you reconnect with your personal life and rediscover your "why."

Drawing on research and our own journey of preparing for true time off (the "If I get hit by a bus book" is real!), we'll discuss practical ways to schedule, communicate, and empower your team so you can step away. Because when you return recharged, your business—and your family—will thank you for it.

Tune in to discover how embracing intentional disconnection can be the magic spell for a healthier, more productive business and a richer personal life.

Because your definition of success is personal, and it's time to own it!
