Staying Solo

Summer Vibes: Work Less, Play More


Listen Later

The sun is shining, summer is right around the corner and for many of us, we're ready to get outside and play.

The problem?

Hustle culture tells us that we need to work work work. Otherwise, our business will crumble. And even if we DO take some time off, we should still be available to our clients. But those are just a few of the many lies we've been fed, and I can tell you from experience that taking time off IS possible—without your business falling apart in your absence.

You just need your very own Summer Action Plan to make it happen.

In this episode, I'm sharing my best tips and tricks for working less and playing more so you can make the most of this season.

Topics discussed in this episode include:

  • How our relationship to time off is usually wrapped up with hustle culture and toxic productivity.

  • Terrible advice we see surrounding taking time off.

  • How to create your own summer action plan, including six questions you must ask when crafting your plan.

  • Why boundaries are key to making your Summer Action Plan a reality.

  • Five reminders on setting (and keeping!) your boundaries with clients.
