What if retirement didn’t have to wait until you were 65?
In this episode of the Second Act Success Podcast, Shannon Russell dives into the growing trend of mini retirements and why more women are choosing to take intentional career breaks to reset, recharge, and rethink their next chapter.
A recent study shows that more professionals are planning career breaks of 3 to 12 months, especially during midlife, to combat burnout, explore new business ideas, and realign their lives with what truly matters.
If you’ve ever felt exhausted, stuck in your 9–5, or unsure what your next move should be, this episode will open your eyes to a powerful alternative.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What a mini retirement really is and why it’s becoming more popular
- How to take a career break without falling behind financially
- The connection between burnout, career transition, and second act careers
- How a mini retirement can help you start a business or pivot your career
- Practical steps to plan your own sabbatical or reset period
Whether you’re dreaming of starting a business, navigating a midlife career transition, or simply craving space to breathe, this episode will help you explore what’s possible.
