In Between — Navigating the Rise of Life & Career Transitions

We live in an age where transitions are no longer rare detours but part of the main road. With global instability, technological shifts, and evolving values around work and lifestyle, people now experience 5–7 career changes in their lifetime and spend nearly half their lives in some form of transition. Yet while the frequency of change has accelerated, the tools to navigate it have not kept pace.

This presentation explores the “in between” — that tender space between endings and beginnings — and equips therapists, coaches, wellness practitioners and anyone interested with insights and practical tools to guide both themselves and their clients. Participants will come away with an understanding of why transitions are rising globally and be able to recognize both common phases and emotional patterns related to transitions. Together, we will reframe life’s messy middles as fertile ground for resilience, embracing the paradox as well as new possibilities.

This event is relevant for all therapists and coaches who are interested in extending their knowledge of different theories and modalities, as well as anyone who is generally interested in psychology and self-development. This is an inclusive event open to all genders, and will include discussion as well as (optional) experiential moments. Please bring a notebook/journal!

Practicalities
The event will take place at Selina Secret Garden, downstairs in the Experience Room. We will begin promptly at 6.30pm so please ensure that you are seated before then so as not to disrupt the energy of the event. You can buy refreshments upstairs at the Rooftop Bar before the event and we invite everyone to continue the discussion there afterwards as well.

There is no charge for attendance but we recommend a voluntary donation of at least €5 (cash only) for those who are willing and able to contribute to help cover the use of the venue, support for the presenters, as well as administrative costs.

If you have any questions about this event, please feel free to reach out to Kat LeRoy.

About the Presenter: Jessica Labesehr
Founder of 2° Turn®️, I support others through life’s inevitable and chosen turns — because I’ve navigated many myself. My path has taken me from ashrams in India to tech in New Zealand and now Portugal. With a background spanning social science, yoga, UX design, and coaching, I serve as a perspective-shifter — inviting clients and audiences to reframe change not as chaos, but as fertile ground for paradox and possibility. One of my own recent turns includes a natural cosmetics venture, a reminder that we, too, are nature.
