Why Our Whole Team Is Taking a Break—And Why You Should Too

Time to Pause, Together

Let’s face it—we all get caught in the loop. Deadlines. Emails. Notifications. Another post, another edit, another article. It never ends—unless you choose to pause. And that’s exactly what we’re doing.

That’s right: the entire team behind Smarter Better Daily is going on vacation—at the same time. Why? Because rest isn’t a luxury. It’s part of the process.

Why Taking a Team Vacation Matters

We believe that doing meaningful work means being fully present. And presence comes from rest. Not just sleep—but true detachment from work. The kind that lets you:

  • Reset your brain

  • Rediscover what inspires you

  • Reconnect with yourself and the world around you

By stepping back together, we’re not just recharging individuals—we’re strengthening our team energy.

No Guilt, Just Real Life

We’re the kind of people who love what we do. But that love shouldn’t lead to burnout. If you’ve ever found yourself replying to emails on the beach, this one’s for you. True rest means letting go—not lurking in Slack or secretly scheduling posts.

So we’re unplugging. All of us. Fully.
Yes, the site stays online.
Yes, all your favorite articles are still here.
No, we won’t respond until we’re back. And that’s okay.

What We’re Doing Instead

Every team member has their own plan:

  • Lisa is hiking through the Dolomites with her camera.

  • David is trying to go one full week without opening his laptop.

  • Sophie is off the grid with a stack of unread books and no Wi-Fi.

  • Tim is doing a tech detox (yes, really).

  • Emma is chasing castles and cafes with her kids.

  • Max is taste-testing his way through Portugal.

We’re walking our own talk—whether it’s about slowing down, exploring, or just being.

What This Means for You

We’ll be back soon—rested, recharged, and loaded with fresh ideas. Until then, explore our archive.

We hope you’ll take this as a sign to unplug for a while too. Even a day. Even an hour. Step back so you can come back stronger.

Thanks for being part of this journey.

See you after the break. Refreshed and ready.
—The Smarter Better Daily Team
