RS373 - Design rest into your business with seasonal business rhythm

If the holiday season highlights what feels heavy or unsustainable in your work, this episode will help you use seasonal business rhythm to design rest into your business — not as a reward, but as a foundation.

Key takeaways

• Seasonal business rhythm helps you stop fighting your energy and start designing around it — so your business can support you year-round.

• Rest becomes a powerful diagnostic: when you slow down, you can finally see what's demanding, resistant, or no longer sustainable.

• "Being busy" isn't the same as moving forward — and filling every gap with doing keeps you disconnected from clarity.

• Hustling to "earn" rest often backfires, making it harder to switch off and recover (and sometimes crashing your body when you finally stop).

• A compassionate January plan beats an intense January plan — consistent, incremental action wins in the long haul.
