[003] Torn between leaving the Clinical Job you loved so much and applying for a new one?

In her new book The Reset, Financial Times columnist and best-selling author Elizabeth Uviebinené draws our attention to 15-minute city living. 

 “What even is that?”, you ask.  

Luckily, she wrote a summary article on these purposefully designed neighbourhoods for better working and living.  Since the pandemic, people have become more connected to their local communities & making much fewer unnecessary journeys (& commutes!). Of course, things are tricky if you are tethered to a clinical setting.

However, the pandemic has shown us that flexible solutions for our working lives may be more plausible than we once thought.

As you dream about your dream life, check out our curated opportunities below. 

And don't forget to share this newsletter 📥with a friend who may be interested in also living a more fulfilling and self-directed life.
