👉Listen To The Episode Here👈

Are you being intentional with taking time off in your business?



I share my philosophy of "Life First. Business Second." and why it is important to plan for life first before planning things in your business.

Taking time off from business isn't a luxury. It is a necessity and something you absolutely MUST do if you want to be more successful while working less.


In this episode,
I share my philosophy of "Life First. Business Second." and why it is important to plan for life first before planning things in your business..

I recently asked a client when she was planning on taking. vacation this here and her response was all too familiar: "I'm not sure...haven't really thought about it yet."

It's easy to feel guilty about taking time away from our business. Sometimes, we can't because our business cannot survive without us...even for a couple of weeks.

If you don't take vacations from your business because you feel guilty or your business won't last a day without you then this episode is for you!

Just because you LOVE your business doesn't make it okay to be consumed by it.

Here's a glance at the points I shared in the episode and some thoughts for you to consider and answer for yourself:

When was the last time you took a vacation? And do you plan for time off in your business?

  • Our schedules quickly get filled with all the things and before we know it, another month has passed.

  • Our vacation time is typically an afterthought.

  • If you want to work less and live more, you have to create space for less.

If you decide to do so, will your business be okay without you?

  • Will clients still be served?

  • Will emails still be sent?

  • New leads generated?

Will your business still be there when you get back?


Will you be okay without your business?

  • Taking some time away from it all will help your business grow.

  • Rest will help you feel re-energised and recommitted to achieve what you want in your business.


THIS IS YOUR INVITATION to schedule your vacation time FIRST.

Remember. Life FIRST. Business second.
