Why take a career break?
A career break can seem daunting, but we are confident it will be one of the best decisions you can ever make.
It can open up a world of opportunity for freedom and travel, help you re-discover your career motivation, and give you a chance to reset and enhance your well-being.
Our top reasons to take a career break:
Travel: Our number one: a break can give you an opportunity to explore new countries, learn about different cultures, and open your mind to a new way of life.
New Ideas & Innovative Thinking: It can provide time and headspace to think creatively and consider new business ideas & opportunities.
Work-life balance: Grant a renewed sense of balance, clarity & perspective with more time for family & other commitments.
Wellbeing & rejuvenation: It can allow you time to rest, recharge and fully restore your overall wellbeing
New skills & interests: It allows you to expand your existing skillset or learn something new, such as a new language.
Mental health: A well-timed break can dramatically reduce stress levels and pressures and greatly improve overall mental health for many.
Career prospects: A break gives you an opportunity to step back, assess your trajectory, plan your goals, make a potential career change, or re-enter the workplace with improved confidence, skills, and clarity.
Physical health: Free up time and energy to prioritise your health through better exercise, mindfulness & nutrition.
