So much of what we reach for in life is about experiencing fullness - a busy schedule, a well-stocked pantry, a hefty bank account. And while this fullness can feel good, sometimes it’s equally important to give yourself moments of emptiness, especially in your calendar.

When you’re passionate about the work you do, it can be really challenging to say “No!” to opportunities. And so, you fill your calendar with meetings and events until your work-life is busy and full of to-dos. The problem is that, without taking a break, you’re not allowing yourself time and space to do that big picture visioning that brings your work to life.
