If you’re feeling stretched thin in your business, running from one task to the next without making real progress—this episode is for you.

I get it. You’re running a business, building a personal brand, and creating content non-stop. Your days are packed with meetings, Zoom calls, and never-ending to-do lists. And before you know it, you’re exhausted, running on empty.

That was me. Until I made a decision that changed everything.

At the beginning of 2025, I started implementing quarterly breaks—three days of full vacation, followed by two days of deep business planning. And let me tell you, it has been a game-changer.

In this episode, I break down:

✅ How I strategically block my time to maximize productivity

✅ Why stepping away from your business is the key to seeing the bigger picture

✅ The surprising benefits of journaling (even if you don’t consider yourself a "journaler")

✅ How my Cabo trip led to my biggest business breakthroughs

This system has helped me stay clear-headed, creative, and actually move the needle forward in my business. If you’re looking for a way to prevent burnout while still scaling, this might just be the approach you need.
