Ever opened an email notification while on vacation and felt that familiar pang of guilt? In this episode, I'm sharing the exact system I used to take a real vacation (as I'm enjoying Baltimore with my family right now!), and how you can do the same without your community falling apart.
We'll explore why stepping away is not just possible but necessary, plus practical systems to keep things running smoothly in your absence. If the thought of not checking your community for days makes you break into a cold sweat, this episode is for you!
