Whether you're considering a sabbatical, curious about new hobbies, or simply seeking a moment of pause, we invite you to join us in exploring the possibilities that lie outside of work. Let’s come together to share our journeys, inspire each other, and discover what a career break could mean for you.

☕ The How - World Cafe
World Cafe is a discussion format driven by intentionally crafted questions, designed for 12 or more people to Think Together. 🌎☕️
In the process, participants are divided into small groups to discuss a question, and then join a new group to discuss the next one.
There will be three rounds, each 15 to 20 minutes.
After that, everyone comes together to share what they learned. We'll be able to take home the main ideas, themes, and insights that emerged from the discussions.
