Career BreakCareer transition
Nov. 2023 - Dec. 2024Athens, AttikiAll too often we are worried to talk about career breaks but the fact of the matter is sometimes we need that. I took some time off post my first gig here in Greece to get myself back in order. After working non-stop since age 17 and making a Trans-Atlantic move in March of 2023, I didn't really sit at all. I made the decision to focus on building my new life here in Greece, get to the gym, get to the sea, and focus on what really matters to me and the famous Biskotaki. We all may not be fortunate to take this time off but what I have realized is I needed this time to get back to George. Advice for those who have never stopped working...a break is needed. I can tell you first hand. Feel free to ask what I did during my free time as I transitioned to my new life here in Athens. This was one of the best decisions I made.
