Raise a hand if you struggle to switch off from work! This is a challenge Rachel Rodgers is all too familiar with; she finds it hard to disconnect from work, even during vacations or family. Similarly, Brittany Martin felt intense anxiety about leaving her kids to go on a vacation with her husband. 

If you too have a busy job and struggle to maintain a healthy work:life balance, this episode is for you! We’ll be talking about how to unplug and actually enjoy your time off, how to keep the guilt of being on vacation at bay, the art of releasing responsibility, and so much more.

Not only is it vital to have breaks from work, but these restful periods can in fact be the source of some of your greatest ideas. So get ready to reset, give your body what it needs, and we hope you’ll all be booking your next vacation in no time!
