Tech work can be deeply rewarding but deadlines, uncertainty, context switching, incidents, responsibility, difficult communication, and the pressure to constantly keep up can leave you stuck in work mode long after you close your laptop. You might notice racing thoughts, tension, shallow breathing, irritability, brain fog, difficulty concentrating, or simply the feeling that you can't switch off but still keep pushing through.
These walks are a chance to step away from the keyboard, get moving, and reconnect with yourself and other people who understand what tech work is like.
There’s no productivity advice, no corporate wellness clichés, and no expectation that you have to “fix” yourself. We walk, talk, decompress and regulate our nervous system. Sometimes you need a change of scenery. Sometimes you need to talk to someone who gets it. Sometimes you just need to stop working for an hour.
Come walk with us.
Berlin is getting dark again. Let's catch those rays of sun during the lunch break ☀️!
Agenda:
We walk at every weather, so make sure to dress properly!
Looking forward to meeting you at our lunchtime walk.

Now, as a WCO-certified coach , I help others understand stress, regulate their emotions, and build more sustainable ways of living and working.AWAY FROM KEYBOARD grew from that experience and from a belief that we’re better off figuring this stuff out together.
Let's connect!
