🌟 Big career changes don’t start with confidence, they start with courage. Women have pivoted from law to chocolate-making, left banking to build social enterprises, and quit “stable” jobs to chase their dreams. Not because they felt ready, but because they backed themselves before the world did. If you’re waiting to feel certain - don’t. Take the step. Send the email. Apply for the thing. And if you need a community doing the same, the Career Change Accelerator is here. Applications are open now. 🏆 #IWD #CareerChange

Each of these women took the first step before they felt ready. And that’s the trick—action builds confidence, not the other way around. 🫵 So, what’s your move? If you’re looking for structure, support, and a ✨nudge toward action✨, the Career Change Accelerator is here. Applications are open now. https://lnkd.in/euEE2Yen Happy International Women's Day 🤍 #InternationalWomensDay #AccelerateAction

At Escape the City, we’re always inspired by people who take bold steps toward more meaningful work. 💪 One path that’s helped many make that leap is On Purpose London, a year-long leadership programme designed to help professionals transition into purpose-driven careers. Since 2010, On Purpose has equipped individuals with the skills, experience, and community needed to align their careers with their values. For Alex de Maré, discovering On Purpose was—ironically—an accident. With six years of experience in sales and account management, she was searching for work that better reflected her ethics and desire to create positive change. ✨ Flick through to read her experience with the programme - full article linked here: https://lnkd.in/eyJ5bVHH

If you’re waiting to feel ready before making a change, here’s the truth: ready isn’t a feeling, it’s a decision. Happy Monday ✨ https://lnkd.in/g4fGySPV

🌙 Ramadan is a time of spiritual reflection, discipline, and community. For many professionals, it also means balancing work with fasting, prayer, and late-night meals. As businesses committed to inclusive workplaces, it’s essential to consider policies that support employees during this time. Here are a few ways workplaces can be more Ramadan-friendly: ⭐ Flexible Working Hours – Allow early start/finish times or remote work options. ⭐ Meeting Awareness – Avoid scheduling key discussions late in the day. ⭐ Quiet Spaces for Prayer & Rest – Provide a comfortable environment for reflection. ⭐ Understanding & Empathy – Acknowledge the physical and mental challenges of fasting and show support. 🤍 Creating people-first policies isn’t just about ticking boxes - it’s about fostering an environment where everyone can bring their full selves to work. Instead of assuming, ask in advance how you can best support team members and create an action plan from there. How does your company support employees during Ramadan? We’d love to hear your experiences.
