The Sabbatical Method: How to Leverage Rest and Grow Your Business
How can rest save your life and your business?
Ian Taylor, who summited Everest in 2008, reports that the most common setback for Everest climbers is not giving themselves enough down time during their expeditions. Climbers need ample time to rest and prepare for the increasingly difficult sections of their climbs.
Compared to the most rigorous Everest trainees, entrepreneurs spend double the amount of time working-with almost no recovery time between big pushes. If entrepreneurs and founders want to perform at high levels for the long haul, rest isn't optional.
Simply put, rest a fundamental element you must weave intentionally into your approach. In this book, I'll help you strategically leverage rest while simultaneously improving your business operations. I call this the Sabbatical Method.
Join the dozens of founders, entrepreneurs, CEOs, and other leaders across America who are using my five-phase framework to acclimate to the mounting pressures of entrepreneurship as they scale their next big peaks.

Must Read Book for Solopreneurs
I read this book in a couple of days because it was so enlightening, practical, and value aligned. Alyson manages to make evaluating operations and creating business systems interesting and achievable. I love how each chapter provides a mission and critical actions to achieve that mission. So grateful for this goodness.
