Episode 152: Plan Your "December 2026" (And Other Vacation Time) Now

Lex Lancaster Season 1 Episode 152

Episode Summary

In this episode, I’m talking through what planning for next year actually looks like in real life. I share why I intentionally blocked off three weeks at the end of the year, how I’m thinking about capacity, boundaries, and discovery calls, and why planning time off ahead of time is one of the most important things you can do as a business owner. This is a short, reflective episode about nourishing your business and your life, setting yourself up for rest before you’re burned out, and making intentional decisions now so the future you is supported.


What I Chatted About:

  • Why I’m taking an unofficial staycation and what having unscheduled time has revealed
  • How I’m rethinking discovery calls, capacity, and more
  • Planning time off before the year starts instead of scrambling last minute
  • Why you do not need to work holidays to be a good or successful business owner
  • Connecting time off across months instead of forcing it into one neat box
  • Letting yourself imagine what you want next year to feel like, not just look like
