“My recent time away on sabbatical impacted my life and my family in such a positive way. During this time, I completed a major renovation project on my home, allowing us to prepare it for rental, which was a significant financial move for my husband and me. Additionally, I took classes and researched rental property management, drafted contracts, and developed marketing materials, setting us up for success with this new venture. I also completed a personal finance course with my husband to ensure we are aligned with our financial goals, volunteered for a dog rescue group I am passionate about, and did therapy visits with my therapy dog. We also prepared for a move, and I was able to support my husband through a crucial time as he prepared for an exam. All of these accomplishments have brought a great sense of peace and stability to our lives. It is incredible what we can achieve when we have the time to focus on what is truly important to us and our families. Everyone should have the chance to take the time they need to focus on themselves and their loved ones when they need it.”
