  Will a Career Break Actually Ruin You?

  Aug 6, 202621 min

  SPOTIFY DESCRIPTION: Walking away from a career feels like career suicide, but the wage is usually the least of it. What you’re really giving up is the identity and status that come with the job. Irenka and I get into what actually happens to your work when you go, whether you can take it with you, and why a break is more survivable than it looks. Plus the ten year gap that knocked Irenka’s confidence, and why we skipped the tennis lessons and gave the kids the Galapagos instead. Cockpit Sessions is me and Irenka working through our book, Mothership Adrift, one section at a time. ▷ BOOK & FREE SAMPLE: https://www.mothershipadrift.com/mothershipadriftbook▷ WEBSITE: https://www.mothershipadrift.com

  But Money…? How Ordinary Families Afford to Travel the World

  Jul 23, 202618 min

  Money stops more families going than anything else, so this episode is the honest budget. What a boat really costs, the bargain boat trap, how five of us lived on about £2,000 a month, the £200 wedding, and why Irenka would do the whole thing again in a smaller boat. Cockpit Sessions serialises our book one section at a time, as a conversation between the two of us.

  Reluctant Partner? Why Convincing Never Works

  Jul 9, 202617 min

  You can't convince a reluctant partner to sail round the world, and trying is how these plans fall apart before they start. Irenka and I on the difference between fear and simply not wanting to go, why convincing is the wrong goal, and how we found out years in that we'd wanted the same trip for different reasons. Cockpit Sessions serialises our book one chapter at a time, a two-hander on escaping the rat race by sea.

  What Actually Happens to Your Friendships When You Sail Away | Cockpit Sessions Ep.08

  Jul 2, 202617 min

  Everyone warns that the hardest part of sailing away is losing your people. Friends, family, the whole sense of belonging. Eight years and a full circumnavigation later, it went the other way. The friends that mattered got closer, and we found a second family at sea on top. Before you even leave, some people start pulling away, which feels a lot like grief. Irenka's mum kept our spirits up with a steady supply of newspaper clippings about boats sinking. Then you get out there and find a community that forms so fast you can knock on a stranger's hull and be best mates by sundown. Irenka will talk to anyone. I get peopled out the moment a crowd forms. We never did settle which of us is right. Cockpit Sessions is the podcast where we work through the book behind our eight-year family circumnavigation, one conversation at a time. 📖 Book (working title) and free sample: https://www.mothershipadrift.com/mothershipadriftbook 🎬 More from us: https://www.mothershipadrift.com
