Join this small, informal after-work meetup in a café in Luxembourg City to explore what coaching actually means, when it’s useful, and when it’s not. This is not a full coaching session.

What makes a place feel like home? In a country as international as Luxembourg, integration is not only about work or language - it’s about connection, identity and belonging.

For this book club, I’d like to suggest a story about a woman who is simply trying to live in a way that will make society leave her alone. As usual, it doesn’t quite work out. Convenience Store Woman has been described by The Guardian as “a deadpan Japanese tale of an oddball shop assistant that possesses a strange beauty”. What struck me, though, was not its strangeness but its calm. Unexpectedly, the book helped me find reassurance in routine itself—in small, unnoticed actions, and in the permission to exist sometimes as a function, sometimes as a fictional character. I hope you are intrigued by now. If not, I would still encourage you to pick up Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata— it is quite short! —and to join our discussion, where we will reflect together on questions of normality, meaning in work, and the fragile line between individuality and conformity.

Think again, and join us for a screening of Pixar’s Oscar-winning film, Soul. Jamie Foxx voices Joe Gardner, a part-time music teacher and aspiring jazz pianist, whose life is dedicated to making it as a professional musician. On the day of his big break, he is nearly killed in a freak accident. On a conveyor belt to the “Great Beyond”, Joe escapes to the “Great Before”, a bardo in reverse, where the unborn are prepared for life on Earth. There he meets “22”, voiced by Tina Fey, and together they find out what’s makes life worth living. It’s rare that any film, animated or live action, can be so entertaining while simultaneously giving you so much to think about. Stick around after the screening for a discussion of how the film speaks to you.
