We dive into a common listener question: Can I afford a career break or sabbatical? Career breaks for family, travel, burnout, or realignment are becoming increasingly common, and we wholeheartedly support the idea. However, the financial and mental preparation required for taking time off extends far beyond just checking your savings account balance. We provide essential, step-by-step guidance on all the considerations to thoughtfully answer this question, including your emergency fund, medical insurance, rehireability, planning for the worst-case scenario, navigating debt, and more. Learn how to create a financial plan that ensures you enter your break from a position of financial strength and confidence.
