Do you ever feel more stressed before going on leave than during your actual workweek—simply because you’re worried your team won’t function without you?
If taking a holiday makes you anxious about messages, decisions, or potential crises your team might face without you, this episode helps you understand why that stress isn’t about the season—it’s a sign that your team may be relying on you more than they should, and what you can shift to reclaim real rest and healthier leadership.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How to identify the hidden signs that your team depends on you instead of feeling empowered to lead.
- Why your availability during leave is linked to your leadership habits, not your team’s capability.
- Practical shifts you can make now so your team grows stronger—and you can finally disconnect without fear.
Press play now to learn how to step away with confidence and create a team that thrives—even when you're on holiday.
