Cécile has had a successful career in consulting, acquiring a senior position in a big company that has taken a leadership role in the energy transition in the UK. Although she was passionate about her job she decided to go on a yearlong sabbatical from work, traveling around the world and writing - creating space for her curiosity & creativity.

Michelle has a background in sales but after a couple of years in the business she decided to go on a sabbatical that doesn't seem to have an end. When she isn't busy fending off people who constantly try to hire her, she runs a podcast with her sister - "Status Post Adulting Podcast" and she has written multiple essays, while slowly "getting famous for not working" in the meantime.
