Start Planning Your First Mini-Retirement
Manage episode 518878933 series 2088167
How would a one-month mini-retirement benefit your mental health? I know I’m not alone in feeling burnt out these days. And while the idea of four weeks away from work—to rest, to recalibrate, to pursue a passion—might feel out of reach, Jillian Johnsrud knows firsthand how to make it happen.
Jillian’s book, “Retire Often,” is the culmination of everything she’s learned from her own dozen short sabbaticals and from coaching hundreds of fellow mini-retirees. If you’ve been feeling dragged down by work stress, now is definitely the time to get inspired by Jillian’s philosophy and how it’s changed her life, transforming her into a middle-aged mom of five with the energy to seize every day with creativity and positivity.
Start planning your first mini-retirement equipped with Jillian’s advice, including
- Practical considerations that make it possible;
- Why mini-retirements affect women differently than men;
- How to convince your boss to sign off;
- Why the American workplace shuns the idea of extended time off.
