And I tell people, okay, I'm gone. And even though I'm going to bed to go read, I'm taking that time to decompress, to relax, to get into the place where I can go into sleep properly. So when you're looking at this, what does that rhythm look like for you? And it's gonna change ages and stages depending on what's happening in your life. If you've got little kids, or if you're looking after elder adults, or if you have pets, there's lots of different things that can impact the way that your day/life works. But make sure that you're looking after yourself. And from there, you will be able to, you know what they say, fill your own cup first and then you can share. Make sure you're looking after yourself, set your boundaries, make sure that you're working with your energy, make sure you're putting tasks in spaces that make sense to you, and give yourself some room on projects. Sometimes that can be the hardest part. And always, always, always prioritize yourself and your recovery time and make sure that it is just as important to do that as it is to do the things that you have to do for your clients.
