When Your Whole Team Disappears: Reviewing 7 Years of Summer Sabbaticals
Episode 659
Friday, 30 October, 2026
Giving my team a month off every summer has become one of the most valuable things I do for the business. After around seven years of running our summer sabbatical, I'm sharing why I introduced it, how we structure the four weeks off, and the biggest lessons I've learned along the way. From helping the team recharge and improving retention to giving me space to audit the business and plan for the year ahead, there are some significant benefits… but it's not without its downsides. Listen in as I break down the practical challenges, including the cost, interrupted projects, and managing customer expectations while the team is offline. I also reflect on why I'm increasingly drawn to working in seasons, and how committing fully to a period of focused work or time away can help create a better balance between business growth, family, and adventure.
