So I took the whole month of June off, just as I did in December.

It wasn’t easy to take this month off. I had to make arrangements, sell it to my team and clients, get a bunch of work and content done ahead of time, and really stand my ground when people asked for my time. But I was clear that I wanted this time off. During this month, we had family get-togethers, a family trip, an anniversary getaway, and plenty of relaxing and physical activity.
