INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
Whether you call it a micro-retirement or a sabbatical or funemployment, the idea of taking a period of not working (or scaling back work) in the middle of your career isn’t something new. We’re all likely to be working longer, and living longer, so waiting until 65 to formally retire and enjoy your life doesn’t feel like a guarantee the way it did for our parents’ or grandparents’ generation. Renée has taken one and highly recommends a break for anyone who can fit it into their budget and lifestyle.
This week, we discuss:
- planning your micro-retirement or career break
- if forced unemployment (like a layoff or firing) counts?
- using the break to relieve burnout, pursue passion projects, or pivot careers
- building a balanced life/career where you don’t need breaks
- and so much more!
