Nothing…. nothing happened with my clients.
There was no waiting for them to say it was okay.
No worries that they would be upset.
No stress about being behind on work.
Now part of this is because I’ve established really great relationships with my clients. They know what type of worker I am. They know how I show up for them and how dedicated I am. And I also work very efficiently so they know that I didn’t just leave with a mess where things won’t be done on time.
I do things to make decisions like taking the rest of the week off last minute is an easy one.
The point is I have the say. I have complete freedom. I get to take care of myself and what I need right now and not have the added stress of being in trouble with my work or having to show up anyway.
And for me, this is what it’s all about.
Not the money
Not the followers
Not the viral moments
It’s the control over my life.
And this is your reminder that you have to take care of yourself first and there is no shame in doing it. Listen to what your body is telling you and take care of it.
