2025 Life Update: Embracing Intentional Breaks for Fulfillment
Description
Reflecting on recent experiences, I share how taking an intentional break has rejuvenated my commitment to living life by my design. From unexpected snow days to exciting new projects like CAA Matters, this episode emphasizes the importance of balance and self-care in both personal and professional realms.
In this episode I talk about:
• Personal update on podcast winter break and family time
• The impact of taking intentional time off
• Navigating disruptions and embracing flexibility
• Introduction of the CAA Matters wellness curriculum
• Exploring my transition from podcasting to teaching
• Anticipation for my upcoming AAAA 2025 conference presentation
