Sabbaticals

In 2022, after 10 years of professional work, I took a break to recover from burnout, explore personal projects, and figure out my next step.

Along the way, I became interested in using sabbaticals as a strategic career tool for mid-career professionals to recover from the stress of modern work and realign their work with their values. I talked to dozens of my friends, family members, and professional contacts to learn about getting the most out of this pivotal time.

This section of my site is a collection of everything that I've learned about taking effective sabbaticals. Start here or see all the articles I have written about sabbaticals.
