It’s easy to see a sabbatical as just time off—but for solopreneurs, it can be much more than a pause. This lesson explores the concrete, transformative outcomes you can expect when you commit to a month-long sabbatical. From nervous system regulation to creative breakthroughs, these changes ripple through both your life and your business, making a sabbatical a strategic and restorative investment in yourself.

We’ll also dive into why these results aren’t just theoretical—they’re based on real experiences I’ve seen repeatedly with clients and in my own sabbatical practice. By understanding what’s possible, you can approach your sabbatical with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Whether you’re feeling hesitant, curious, or ready to plan, this episode will help you envision what life and business could look like on the other side of an intentional pause.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How a sabbatical helps you regulate your nervous system and operate from calm, present awareness. [02:38]
  • How stepping away allows you to recharge your energy, restore creativity, and return to work with renewed vitality. [04:05]
  • How taking a sabbatical contributes to a cultural shift around work, rest, and leadership. [05:18]
  • How the spaciousness of sabbatical time clarifies what alignment looks like for your current life and business. [06:38]
  • How an intentional pause creates the conditions for your next big idea to emerge, whether it’s a project, offer, or new direction. [07:58]
  • Why these outcomes are not hypothetical—these are repeatable results when you commit to practicing intentional time away. [09:49]

Sabbatical School is a seven-month program designed to help solopreneurs prepare their business and nervous system for a real month-long sabbatical. You’ll receive live coaching on practical steps like finances and systems, alongside deeper work on releasing guilt, re-imagining your relationship with time, and learning to rest fully.
