OUR MISSION

We want to break the stigma around unemployment and career breaks by radically rebranding this time

- from a period of loss and shame
into a powerful, intentional
journey of rediscovery,
growth, and new possibilities.

Our Story

LOSING YOUR JOB SOMETIMES FEELS LIKE LOSING YOURSELF. 

In a society where our jobs and titles define so much of who we are, losing your work can feel like losing yourself. Suddenly everything seems taken away, and that quiet voice in your head starts whispering: “You failed. You’re not good enough. You should have… What will people think?” We feel overwhelmed, shame creeps in, self-doubt hits hard, and imposter syndrome lurks around every corner.

THAT NARRATIVE DOES NOT SERVE US ANYMORE. WE ARE FLIPPING THE SCRIPT.

At the Out-of-Office Club we woke up one day and asked ourselves: Why? Why should a phase where you’re finally free to think, experiment, breathe, and rediscover yourself be tied to shame? We decided: No. We’re flipping the script.

We are not unemployed. We are just CURRENTLY OOO.

We call it “out-of-office” – because we don't identify with being “unemployed” - no, we are courageous, we are determined, we are mindful.
We believe, this can be one of the most powerful chapters of your life – a real chance to reconnect with yourself and figure out what you truly want. And it doesn’t happen overnight. It’s a journey.

Our Pillars

We understand that you can’t just jump straight into job applications as if nothing happened. Depending on what you’ve been through, what you’re carrying right now, or what you hope for next, your needs look very different – and that’s exactly why we created our three pillars. We organize all our events and support around them, so every part of your journey gets exactly the care it needs.

WHAT DO WE MEAN BY JOURNEY?

Release stress, anxiety
and inner blockages to

FINd CLARITY & CONFIDENCE

Rediscover what truly
excites you to rebuild

PLAN & MOVE FORWARD

Transform inner clarity
into concrete steps with
a clear plan, gentle
accountability and
