Strategies I've Learned to Make the Holiday Season Truly Feel Enjoyable
Sundays with Anna | Newsletter #10
Hi there, Anna here…
In my last newsletter, I shared a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes of my business journey.
As promised, I’m back for Part 2—-my go-to strategy for making holiday time truly relaxing while keeping the business running smoothly.
Here are 5 tips I’ve learned over the years. (#5 is a game-changer!)
-
Set Boundaries Early
-
Notify your team and clients about your holiday schedule well in advance.
-
Create a ‘Quick Check-in’ Routine
-
Spend 15-30 minutes daily handling urgent matters—-then disconnect guilt-free!
-
Embrace Technology for Peace of Mind
-
Use tools like Shopify notifications and Klaviyo automation to stay lightly informed.
-
Plan for Downtime
-
Set email autoresponders to manage expectations and ensure uninterrupted time off.
And finally, I think this is the most important…
-
Remember Why You’re Taking a Break
-
Remind yourself that stepping away is vital for both your well-being and the long-term success of your business. Don’t forget to enjoy it!
The girls and I are having a blast in stunning El Nido, Palawan, Philippines (of course at the beach!).
As the holiday is fast approaching, I hope these tips will help you truly enjoy your getaway while keeping your business in good shape.
