Summary
Welcome to the very first episode of our new Taking A Career Break Summer Series! Throughout this special series, Katrina sits down with former coaching clients who have taken courageous career breaks and sabbaticals to hear what really happened after they stepped away from work. Our first guest is Brittany Coleman , whose story is one of the most remarkable transformations we've ever shared. When Brittany began her sabbatical, she was exhausted after years of nonstop work in the nonprofit sector. Burnout had taken over, and she struggled with the idea of stepping away from a leadership role she believed couldn't function without her. But what began as a planned sabbatical quickly became something much bigger. Just weeks into her break, Brittany faced an unexpected divorce. Instead of returning to work as a distraction, she used her career break to reconnect with herself, discover new passions, build healthier boundaries, and completely redefine what success looked like. Today, Brittany runs her own consulting business, teaches pottery, works part-time in education, and has built a career around work she genuinely enjoys.
