Kate's take, in a sentence or two

Kate clarifies she didn't take all of June off in Santa Fe—she worked roughly 40 hours over the month, mostly Tuesday–Thursday, keeping Fridays through Mondays freer for hikes and time with friends and family. She schedules both work and protected non-work time using her usual batching schedule, but stays flexible rather than dogmatic, following her energy and "not shaming herself either way" whether she works more or less than usual. She doesn't hold herself to a strict hours cap (like 25/week)—she prefers "containers, not caps," with structures like slow mornings, no work after 6pm, and no-call days, flexing within that based on her body, life, and cycle.
