As the leaves turn gold and the chill sets in across Victoria, May quietly invites us to pause and reflect—not just on the season, but on our careers too.
There’s something about autumn that makes you want to slow down, wrap your hands around a warm coffee, and take stock. The new year’s buzz has faded, and winter hasn’t quite arrived. It’s the perfect in-between moment to ask: Am I where I want to be, career-wise?
By May, we’ve all settled into the year’s rhythm. But this sweet spot is ideal for a little career housekeeping:
- Are you still excited about your work?
- Do your goals still fit where you’re headed?
- Is it time to upskill, shift roles, or just hit refresh?
Victoria’s quieter, cozier vibes this time of year can help you tune in and listen to what you really want next.
What’s more, Victoria offers some unique inspiration this time of year. From small networking events in Melbourne to creative workshops in Ballarat or community meetups in regional hubs, May’s calendar is full of ways to grow without the pressure of big crowds or peak-season energy. It’s a great time to have more meaningful conversations and make lasting professional connections.
So as the season changes, maybe it’s time for a small shift of your own. Like the trees shedding their leaves, letting go of what’s no longer working can create room for something better. Whether it’s realigning your goals, reconnecting with your purpose, or simply catching your breath, May is your reminder that change doesn’t have to be dramatic to be powerful.
