📣 Today we launch Global Nomadic Rewire. 📣 I launched Global Nomadic in 2009 when I was 30. I volunteered in my 20s, visiting remote destinations, working alongside incredible people doing inspiring work. I WAS my target demographic - a young person looking to forge my way in the humanitarian sector. I founded Global Nomadic to provide a marketplace, matching people to far-flung, meaningful projects. As my life evolved, becoming a husband and father, I exchanged jungles and rainforests for London, and the business evolved too. Our clients no longer need help getting a foot in the door, but are searching for a Meaningful Second Act. Maybe you are looking to take time out to rethink the direction of your career in a more purpose-led way? Or you’re close to burn out and need time to rest and recover? Or maybe you are in search of an adventure, beyond corporate life? We have curated a bespoke suite of global projects in conservation, sustainability and community development, just for you. So what do you think, do you feel the need to get away and create purpose in your life and career? Please do share your thoughts in the comments. rewire.globalnomadic.com #purpose #sabbatical #travel #wellness #restandrecovery

Very well said! All of us need a well-timed break to recharge and refresh. #sabbatical #purposeled
Joint Managing Partner | Lewis Silkin | Commercial lawyer | Creative innovative and brand focussed businesses
Leaders also need a break…. Ever since my sabbatical a couple of years ago, I have been a huge advocate of taking a holiday where you switch off, because I observed what a proper long break does to your energy, your stash of ideas, your wellbeing and your connection to your family. Not to mention your humility and understanding that life and work really does carry on without you. In the past year I have discovered that being Joint Managing Partner means being a lot of things to a lot of people a lot of the time. There is no beginning middle or end to the to do list. I absolutely love my job and I am hugely proud and humbled on a daily basis that I have been chosen to be one of the custodians of this great firm. But the last couple of weeks, I have been a bit wobbly. I have worked very hard, for a very long time, and there simply isn’t anything left in the tank. I can see all the fabulous things that we are doing as a firm and my part in it. I don’t need anyone to worry about me, I am going to be fine…but I also know that taking a break when I start feeling like this is absolutely essential to avoid burning out. So many people, especially leaders, think they can’t switch off on holiday, and truthfully , you have to work out how to make it work for you. My wonderful EA @charliehomewood will triage everything while I am away, rather than me monitoring emails all the time , and she will text or phone me if I am really needed . My brilliant JMP Richard Miskella will call me in an emergency. So for me, unplugging means that Teams is being muted , alerts are switched off, and I will check my emails once a day, but rely on WhatsApp for people who need me urgently. I even have an old fashioned digital music player so I can listen to music on the beach without being on my phone . So here’s to occasionally unplugging - not just for our own mental health, but in order to rediscover our ideas and reconnect to our family and the world outside our jobs . Happy summer everyone. Jo x Ps - here’s hoping Hurricane Beryl has finished doing its thing as we are off to Saint Lucia and Barbados … 🤞🏻

Do you ever feel like your brain could do with a reset? Switching something off and then back on again often solves most problems, including your brain! rewire.globalnomadic.com #sabbatical #purposeled #travel

Wonderful to meet our Peruvian partners who are visiting London. They run amazing Conservation projects in the Primary Rainforest of the Amazon and do amazing work with the local communities. Have you ever considered coupling a Machu Pichu tour with an inspiring conservation project? https://lnkd.in/eyjFFQDC #sabbatical #conservation #purposeled #peru #amazon

It was so great to meet Veronica Di Maggio and see her amazing photos from her humanitarian experience with us and our partners in Guatemala. Veronica met with indigenous women from Xela in Guatemala to focus on issues of #femicide and #femaleempowerment, writing an essay in the local newspaper and creating this wonderful photography exposition. So awesome!! https://lnkd.in/gZbBR9XE #sabbatical #humanrights #guatemala

Are you able to take time out to help a world in crisis? We can help, get in touch now #sabbatical #marineconservation #climatecrisis #actnow
Do you think enough is being done to protect our ocean and corals?🪸 Unlike migratory species, corals stay put, making them uniquely vulnerable to marine heatwaves. More heat or one big storm could wipe them out. And when we lose corals, many coastal communities lose an important source of food and livelihoods. To protect nature and people, we have to cut #FossilFuels. Coral Reef Rescue Initiative

When was the last time you took time out to do something completely unrelated to your career (and I don't mean just sitting on a beach with a book!)... ...but to do an activity and let your mind focus on something completely different, such as teaching English to Buddhist Monks in the Himalayas? If you are feeling burnt out, or at the end of your tether, a sabbatical might be just what you need to switch off and rest and recover. When was the last time you took time out just for yourself? https://lnkd.in/eRt6HEfs #sabbatical #restandrecovery #purpose #purposeledlife #teach #buddhism

How many activities or interests do you actively partake in outside of work? Do you feel you have the right balance of personal and professional? Perhaps you need to work on one side more than the other to establish balance. What do you think? rewire.globalnomadic.com #sabbatical #worklifebalance #purposeledlife #mentalhealth

"You will never feel truly satisfied by work until you are satisfied by life." — Heather Schuck Personal and Professional satisfaction seems to be the golden elixir of modern life. Is it achievable? Many struggle to satisfy the demands of work and family / life and often one side suffers at the behest of the other. How do you manage this balance, do you feel you have found the magic formula, or are is it a myth? What do you think? rewire.globalnomadic.com #travel #purpose #careerbreak #sabbatical #secondact
