**Description** Our first meetup was such a success that we’re doing another one! This meetup is for anyone who lived abroad long-term and or travel extensively and returned home feeling changed. We’ll share experiences, talk about the transition home, and connect with others who get it. People considering long-term travel are welcome to join as well. **What to expect** • Friendly introductions • Open, guided conversation • A judgment-free, thoughtful space **What to bring** Nothing needed. Optional: water, a notebook, or a memory you’d like to share.

*Please reach out to the organizer after sign-up if you have trouble getting a copy of the book!* This book club is for women in STEM to explore workplace related themes that are centered on women, STEM, philosophy and leadership. Through these book explorations we share experiences, exchange new ideas, and empower each other through friendly conversations and community. *** *Awakenings* by Oliver Sacks *Awakenings* is the remarkable account of a group of patients who contracted sleeping-sickness during the great epidemic just after World War I. Frozen in a decades-long sleep, these men and women were given up as hopeless until 1969, when Dr. Sacks gave them the then-new drug L-DOPA, which had an astonishing, explosive, “awakening” effect. Dr. Sacks recounts the moving case histories of these individuals, the stories of their lives, and the extraordinary transformations they underwent with treatment. This book, which W. H. Auden called “a masterpiece,” is a passionate exploration of the most general questions of health, disease, suffering, care, and the human condition. ([source](https://www.oliversacks.com/oliver-sacks-books/awakenings/)) *** Whether you love or hate the book, read one chapter, or happened across this description and found yourself interested, come join us for coffee and conversation!
