This is such an important topic, and honestly something I've struggled with in my career as a freelancer! In the past year, I've started to lean into these seasons of rest, and take REAL time off, but it's a boundary I still struggle to set when there are technically always things I "could" be doing. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this!
Of course, and likewise -- thanks for sharing! When work is flexible it also means our rest time can get eaten up by being "always on." It's such a tough thing to balance!

Safe travels, Amy! Sending you well wishes for the writing retreat :)
Thanks, Sabrina!
I often have a hard time disconnecting during breaks or expecting too much of them so I appreciate this advice.
