Quotes: “An essential part of being human is to give ourselves the grace to break our own rules from time to time. As I get more overloaded towards the end of each term, I would withdraw from my healthy habits and get to an exhausted place where the holidays just cannot arrive soon enough.” - Jessica Fearnley
“It’s important to consider ensuring the business can run smoothly without you. Ensure there’s capacity in your team behind the scenes, and your work calendar reflects the time you plan to spend away.” - Jessica Fearnley
