Weekly Recap 6.26.2026

Recap of the week!

🎭 Bansko Nomad Fest: So many inspiring ideas, new ways of working, and amazing people met along the way.

🎭 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗿𝗮’𝘀 𝗕𝗼𝘅 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽: In the middle of it all, I ran an online workshop on critical thinking, using the story of Pandora’s Box through drama in education. Always fun!

🎭 𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗔 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: This weekend I’ve got two virtual strategy sessions with ISTA – Global Learning Through the Arts.

🎭 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘄𝗲𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿: Our final Reconnect webinar is coming up before the August programme. If you’ve been feeling disconnected, come along with Kathrin and I next week and reconnect with yourself. Link to register here.

Working while attending Bansko Nomad Fest has been a real balancing act. Even when I’m not working fully, it still takes energy to hold admin, client work, and all the other moving pieces while also being in a place full of new people, new thinking, and so much inspiration. But it’s also exactly the kind of environment that reminds me why I love this way of working.

It’s a lot, and I know I’ll need all of next week just to process everything. But that’s part of the reality of a portfolio life too, busy, varied, rewarding, and occasionally a little overwhelming.
