Taking a career break can be both exciting and daunting. Some breaks are carefully planned, while others are unexpected.

Join us for an online ‘Connect & Chat’ to hear first-hand what it’s really like to take time out from work. This session will include a talk, discussion, and the opportunity to connect with other women working in sustainability about career breaks — and the challenges and opportunities they bring.

Our speaker, Natalie Sinha, recently took a career break and has no regrets. She’ll share her honest reflections on:

• How she decided to take time out
• What life was like during her sabbatical
• How it felt returning to work afterwards

Natalie will also offer practical tips and insights to help you decide whether a career break or sabbatical might be right for you.

Her philosophy is simple: “If you ever have the chance to take a break, and it’s something you’ve thought about — just do it. Working life is very long, and life is too short.”

Join us for a supportive, informal session to learn, connect, and share ideas.

• Friday 16th January
• 11am – 12noon
• Online

There’s no set agenda: just a few questions to reflect on and similar women to connect with where you can share your feelings and ideas with over a virtual coffee. We hope you leave feeling lighter, energised and more connected.
