QUICK MIDWEEK CATCH-UP - Job seeking Accountability Partners

Hi group!
This is an on-line short mid-week catchup (20 min) to quickly share how we are doing with our goals, how we are feeling about it. It's also an opportunity to join for the first time or invite friends to join. In that case the meeting can extend!

If you’re also:

• Changing careers or looking for a job
• Burned out by traditional networking
• Craving structure, encouragement, or connection

…this group might also be for you :)

WHY AM I CREATING THIS GROUP
I’m entrepreneurial, creative, almost 40 years old. I have stepped outside my comfort zone in search of a career change but not everything has worked out. And that's ok! I've had mentors and accountability partners in the past, and now, as someone new to Lausanne and actively looking for work and stability, I feel the need for community more than ever.
This invitation is something new for me. Usually, people speak up once they've found what they were looking for, once they have the story, the method, the results. But this group is about something else. This is the messy middle while we are still vulnerable. I would like to discover if by sharing this process something amazing takes place!

WHAT WE'LL DO TOGETHER

• Match with accountability partners
• Get together on a weekly basis
• Create a safe zone for introverted and sensitive people
• Share practical help (approaching companies, building presence)
• Offer encouragement and inspiration
• Support each other with patience through learning and portfolio-building

PRACTICAL INFO & METHOD
This group is experimental and evolving, but here's the spirit of it:

• Option 1: Identify the companies or places you’d love to work with. Then practice how to reach out, start 1:1 conversations, and follow up with confidence.
• Option 2: Build a passion project or portfolio piece, and find others to help you shape, pitch, or collaborate on it.

ONE REQUEST
This is part of a personal research experiment for me. If you join, I’d love your feedback. Is this what we need right now, at this stage of our lives and careers? Can we learn how to navigate this transition period with joy and opening as many doors as possible? Let’s find out together.

Kind regards,
Daria
