Keep networking, keep applying. Summer is actually when a lot of work starts ramping up for the fall.

It would be a bad idea for me, but I don't have the cushion you apparently have. The reason I don't have that cushion, though, is because I had 2 months of no work at the beginning of the year. In 10 years of doing this, I have never taken time off on my own. I find I don't recharge well while unemployed. It's the part of freelancing that sucks. But yeah, if you feel comfortable not getting another paycheck until at least September, then by all means do it if you think it'll help. All depends on your confidence level.

Recharge for a bit. See friends, take day trips, start a gym routine, take long walks, cook yourself nourishing meals, read a book that’s been on your list for while, binge watch anything on Apple+ or Max.
Most of all be kind to yourself and know that the work will come so enjoy these days while they last.

Network more and put out feelers, line up new gigs.
