In This Episode:
In a world of hustle and grind, “resting” is not something that’s traditionally built into our work culture. But taking a break isn’t just some “nice to have” – it’s critical to staying productive and producing your best work.
When YOU’RE the boss – sometimes taking a vacation can seem impossible. Add on pressure from client expectations, and the R&R always seems to get pushed to the back burner.
So how do you take a break when it feels like the work never ends? In this episode, Rachel and Laura chat about how rest impacts the quality of your work, and how to get some much-needed time off when you’re working for yourself.
