Life 2.0: After the Pandemic – How has the pandemic rewritten your Next Act?
Life 2.0: After the Pandemic
Looking back on your experience of 2020, what did you miss the most in the pandemic — and what did it make you reassess? Have your plans changed? Has the time saved by not having to travel to work given you more leisure or has working from home seen your work/life balance deteriorate.
What about your plans for retirement? The shift to a new phase of life can be a difficult transition at the best of times let alone during a pandemic, but lockdowns have given us a unique opportunity to experience what life after work may feel like.
We’ll start with a short presentation looking at some of the emerging trends before breaking into small groups to share thoughts before returning to the main ‘room’ for feedback and wider discussion.
This event was recorded February 24th as part of Chadwicks Masterclass & Buisness Insight series.

The Purpose Podcast – True North
In this week’s episode, I am joined by Joe Mills, People, Relationship & Culture Transformer but also known for her work as the Managing Director of the Tree Academy!
Joe came on to the podcast to share all the reasons why she does the job she does everything single day! Her passion for helping others build relationships and guide great culture in businesses echoed through the conversation and I was so excited to share a small part of her story.
Like others who have been on the podcast, Joe had faced many challenges throughout her life and had to find ways to address those mountainous moments in her life. In these moments, she reiterated why changing your environment is one of the most valuable things you can do to help yourself succeed in all areas of your life.
The Purpose of this Podcast is to help individuals who have really struggled to find their way through this pandemic. We draw on our personal stories and accounts to help people understand and realise that they are not alone and that we are all in this together.
