My mini-sabbatical: Why I'm taking time ...

Steph Taylor
About this episode
This is a different episode to the usual one—because it's my last episode for a while! That's right, I'm packing my life into storage, getting behind the wheel of a van and I'm taking a mini-sabbatical. So in today's episode, I'm sharing *why* I'm taking some time off and how I'm reshaping my business as I move forward.

- Why taking some time away is the best thing for me right now—even though I buried my head in the sand for months.
- How making some really big decisions about my life has meant some really big changes are on the horizon.
- The reasons behind pausing this podcast (and it is just a pause, not an ending!).
- The one way that you can continue to work with me while I'm on my mini-sabbatical.
