Her First One Hundred K: Revolutionizing Employee Well-being with Quarterly Company BreaksHer First One Hundred K, a financial education company with a five million dollar annual revenue, is making headlines with its unique approach to employee well-being. The company, known for its bestselling book and top podcast, offers its seven full-time employees a fully paid, week-long company break every quarter. This results in twenty-six additional paid days off each year, on top of holidays and unlimited paid time off.These quarterly breaks are not individual vacation days but a collective shutdown of the entire company for one week. The company proactively informs its audience and partners about these breaks, allowing automated systems to manage essential tasks while the human team rests.The founder believes that these breaks are a proactive investment in preventing burnout, as employees return re-energized, more engaged, and more creative. The company emphasizes that creativity requires space, and these quarterly breaks provide the mental white space needed for innovation.Despite some skepticism, Her First One Hundred K is on track to earn over eight million dollars this year with a sixty-four percent profit margin, proving that this model is sustainable. The company encourages others to start small, perhaps with a long weekend after a major project or by enforcing no meeting days, to make rest a core part of their culture.
