Clarity After Work: Do you actually need a coach? (Luxembourg) https://lindaburchi.com Curious about coaching but not sure what it really is—or if it’s right for you? 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. It’s a relaxed, structured conversation where you’ll get practical insights, simple tools, and real examples—so you can decide if coaching makes sense for you. What we’ll cover: – What coaching really is (and isn’t) – When coaching helps (and when it doesn’t) – Real-life situations and examples – Simple tools to gain clarity Details: – Small group (max 10 people) – Café setting (coffee or drink) – Luxembourg City – Duration: \~90 minutes Perfect for expats and professionals in Luxembourg who want more clarity, better decisions, and a sense of direction. If you’re curious, questioning, or exploring your next step—this is for you.

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. At our next LuxBuzz Integration Breakfast, we invite you to explore this topic together: Integration Through Community and Culture: Multicultural Identity & Belonging We are delighted to welcome our guest speaker **[Neda Naqvi](https://www.linkedin.com/in/neda-naqvi-092a861/)** \- a true citizen of the world\, shaped by Luxembourg\, international experiences and a rich multicultural background\. Her journey brings a unique perspective on how culture\, community and personal identity intertwine in the integration process\. Together we will reflect on: • What creates a sense of belonging • How community and shared experiences connect people • The role of culture, traditions and everyday life in integration As always, this is a small, interactive conversation where every voice matters. 📅 15 May 2026 from 9:00 to 10:30 📍 The Youth Hostel Esch, 17 Bld John F.

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.
