You overthink it. Just take the goddamn break because quite frankly you need it! If I was you I’d never take less than at least two weeks holidays at once. Personally I’ve taken in total more than 3 months holiday in my last financial year and I’ve achieved more than when I was only having 5 weeks a year vacation many years ago. Don’t worry about competition. Presuming you’re doing a highly skilled job from home nobody will be able to replace you in a cost effective way if you take a few weeks off for vacation. Just the process of finding someone, the time cost of other people having to deal with finding a substitute and the onboarding, etc. all cost more than just wait for you to come back. Also they already know you and if they are happy with your output then there’s absolutely no way that you have to fear anything.
