When was the last time you had a proper holiday? One where you actually switched off?
As a small business owner, taking time off can feel impossible. But you deserve a break, and your business will survive (and thrive) with a little prep.

Here’s how to make it work:
Plan Ahead
Block out your time off in your calendar. Let clients know early. Wrap up open tasks and delegate what you can.
Set Up an Out-of-Office
Let people know when you’ll be back, and who to contact in the meantime. I can monitor your inbox so nothing urgent gets missed.
Automate What You Can
Schedule social posts, invoices, and emails in advance. One less thing to think about.
Actually Switch Off
Go on. Read the book. Take the nap. Have the mojito. You’ve earned it.
If you’ve never had a holiday from your business, let this be the year. And if you need someone to hold the fort, I’m here.
