Hands up 🙌 if you’re guilty of being chic in any of these ways.

If you’ve ever daydreamed of jumping off the corpo If you’ve ever daydreamed of jumping off the corporate ladder (or just taking a moment to reset), hi. This is for you 🤍

New series incoming: how quitting my 6-figure job to take a career break resulted in a cross-country road trip around Australia. I never expected my gap year to go like this. In fact, I had no idea what to expect. But life has a funny way of unfolding when you allow yourself to be open to change.

So about 3 months ago, with no PTO restrictions for the first time in our adult lives, Jacob and I decided there was nothing holding us back from seeing as much of this country as we possibly could before my working holiday visa expired. A full circle (or “lap” as it’s called here), camping and subletting our way through every state and territory along the way, before finishing back where we began, in Melbourne. 

Before we hit the road, I’ll share why I unexpectedly spent 1/3 of my career break in one small, hippie beach town (and why it was so worth it).

Nothing about what we’re about to get into here fits neatly on a resume or LinkedIn bio. And that’s exactly the point. First episode dropping next Tuesday! (8/18). 

💻 new here? comment “HOLA” and I’ll send you my guide to taking a travel sabbatical!

If you’ve ever doubted your career, felt like you were no longer climbing the right ladder, or wondered “what if,” you aren’t alone. 

Join me on @racheloffduty and I’ll demystify what life looks like on the other side of taking a career break 🤎
My journey from burnt out and career confused to g My journey from burnt out and career confused to getting my spark back in my 30s.

I can’t believe it’s been 11 months! I have so much to tell you, about the road trip, the places in and things about Australia I fell in love with, the realizations I’ve made, and the advice I wish someone had given me if I was to start my career break journey all over from day 1.

So over the next several weeks I’m going to do my best to share it all, starting here. First episode tomorrow.

And if you’ve been feeling like you’re at a tipping point lately, in your career or in your life, I hope you know — I’m rooting for you.

Follow along @RachelOffDuty for career break transparency, life abroad in Australia, and everything in between. #LapofAustralia #GapYear #CareerBreak #GoingFortheGap

Road tripping this summer? Here’s what I’d do if I Road tripping this summer? Here’s what I’d do if I was starting my 3-month road trip from day 1.

@unboundmerino [ad] 

There’s something special about a road trip. Long stretches of road (and in Oz, they’re reeeally long), beautiful landscapes unfolding slowly, and the rare feeling of endless time. 

But I’ve made some mistakes along the way 🫠 Like packing way too much or planning to do more hours of driving each day than we were ready for. I’m realizing I need less — so much less — than before. And maybe that’s how this road trip is changing me. Because I’m wearing the same clothes basically every day, and instead of feeling frumpy, I feel free. 

Get my road trip uniform!
