Reentry Is Real: How to Ease Back into Life, Business, and Purpose After Time Away with Diane Rolston

You know that feeling when you come back from vacation or just a time away and everything feels a little bit weirdly off when you get back? Our host, Diane Rolston, just came back from four weeks in New Zealand to jet lag, laundry, inbox mayhem, and emotional whiplash. 

In this episode, she talks about how re-entry is real and it deserves a little bit more compassion than hustle.

Here are some of the key takeaways:

  • Why "re-entry" after vacation can feel disorienting and how to approach it with compassion rather than hustle
  • Why returning to normal life after time away causes emotional whiplash and post-travel blues that deserve acknowledgment
  • Practical strategies for grounding yourself 
  • The importance of reflection and how to do it
  • How time away provides valuable perspective on your regular life (similar to "scent blindness") that can reveal insights for positive changes
  • Why reconnecting with your mission and purpose is essential but often forgotten 
  • How to create your own re-entry plan for future trips
  • Why re-entry isn't about going backwards but becoming wiser about how life was before, how it is now, and what elements from your time away you want to incorporate
