Reflections from My Sabbatical (Ep116)
Have you ever thought about hitting pause on your business—but immediately wondered how that could even work?
In this powerful first episode of the Consulting Matters podcast (formerly Enough Already), host Betsy Jordyn shares her personal story of stepping away from her business for a sabbatical after experiencing deep, soul-level, exhaustion. She unpacks what led her to take the break, how she funded and planned it, and most importantly, what she discovered in the silence.
This episode is more than a personal update—it’s a roadmap for high achievers, especially consultants and coaches, who’ve been running on empty but aren’t sure how to stop. If you're questioning your next move, craving clarity, or ready to rebuild from a more grounded place, this conversation is for you.
