The Overthinker's Guide to Joy with Jackie de Crinis | Do You Give Yourself Permission to Unplug?

Ep #56: Do You Give Yourself Permission to Unplug?

September 28, 2022

In celebrating the one-year anniversary of this podcast, I’m taking a month-long hiatus from the podcast, my blog, and my work in general. This is the first time in years that I’m taking a vacation since starting my life coaching business, and I really debated back and forth about truly unplugging. 

For all you listeners, who like me, are overthinkers, perfectionists, and workaholics, giving ourselves permission to unplug is uncomfortable, to say the least. Working and being productive is our comfort zone, so I considered bringing my laptop along, maybe seeing clients in my downtime, and continuing to do weekly podcasts and blogs. But then I thought, is this what I would tell you to do?

Join me this week to discover whether you need to give yourself permission to unplug too. Whether it’s for a day, a week, or even a month, what do you need? And what’s stopping you? Because just maybe, it’s not your kids or your boss who’s stopping you. Maybe you’re getting in your own way, and you just need to give yourself permission to take a break.
