Episode Details

Ever dreamt of taking a gap year or a career break? Yes, me too!

Today on Living Big Mindfully that’s exactly what we are exploring. Katrina is a Career Break and Sabbatical Coach who empowers people to create and take epic “gap” adventures…

Katrina is also a digital nomad and author of Taking a Career Break for Dummies - she starts by sharing a bit about her journey, along with some of the twists and turns that led her to where she is today…

• She talks about her corporate journey
• Knowing how it was time for her to make a change
• And how taking a career break radically altered her life

We chat about why taking risks and being uncomfortable is so important

Then Katrina walks us through her four foundational pillars - giving listeners tips and strategies about:

• Finding purpose
• Figuring out the finances
• And working through the fears that come along with taking an extended break.

No surprise, Katrina wraps it all up with some wise sage advice!

I am so glad to be sharing this conversation with you today… Katrina’s energy, courage, and sense of adventure are contagious. We connected on several levels – one that stands out is our desire to explore. I hope this episode inspires you to get out and explore what’s possible for you!
