Was it worth it?🔸 And the one thing most people don’t consider when planning a career break: what you’ll actually do with your time.Chris shares the emotional, financial, and practical layers of stepping off the treadmill — and why, for many, the 40s might be the last best chance to try something different.Tune in to hear a story that’s less about retiring early and more about designing a life that actually feels like yours.---Unlock global business potential with WorldFirst:Your all-in-one business account for global payments.
