In this social media age, people tend to showcase only the\u0026nbsp;sweater sides of life, and not necessarily reality.

And when you are self\nemployed - time off is very, very tricky. Granted you are your own boss and\ncan manage your own time - but you are never really off, or closed for\nbusiness. So in effect - you actually have much less \"down time\" then you would get working for someone. From launching a\nbunch of f\u0026amp;b projects (some official, some not), to the book, having two babies, catering private events, assisting my sister in our glaucoma charity, other fantastic projects, keeping up with events in ever so busy Dubai, it was simply too much all at once. And with what's\u0026nbsp;happening in our region, I just felt more tense and stressed than usual to top it off. So this\nsummer I took off completely.
