Are you aware of the hidden benefits of pausing your work routine as a social entrepreneur?


Today, I'm excited to discuss the underrated value of sabbaticals for social entrepreneurs. It amazes me how little is told about how breaking the routine and taking intentional pauses allow us to renew our energy and creativity.


Slowing down, disconnecting, and putting our routine on hold are proven methods to counter leadership's silent killers: fear and fatigue. By diving into intentional pauses, we can prevent their negative long-term effects on our health and social enterprise.


Tune in and listen to the fifty-seventh episode of Avant-garde Entrepreneur. You'll hear about my recent experience with sabbaticals and how creating an intentional pause led to enjoying renewed energy, enhanced clarity, and a higher vibrational state. You'll also learn key strategies to plan your sabbatical, tips and practical advice on what to do while you are in the middle of it, the things I would do differently in the next one, and much more.


In This Episode, You Will Learn:

  • A bit about Trisha's experiment pressing the pause button (5:50)
  • About the emotional changes that stem from sabbaticals (12:50)
  • How letting go of the outcomes changes us (19:00)
  • The physical effects the sabbatical had on Trisha (24:30)
  • What you should know and do before you press the pause button (30:20)
  • Tips and advice to consider during the sabbatical (35:20)
