Founders + Funders: Changing the Face of Entrepreneurship and Venture Capitalhttps://www.linkedin.com/pulse/founders-funders-empowering-women-both-sides-table-melissa-z-moore/

Hello Elpha! A year ago, I left the startup I co-founded and went on an 8-month sabbatical to figure out my purpose and reevaluate the mission of my career. I felt like Santiago from Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist, on a quest to find a hidden treasure and to realize my destiny. In this post, I share about what I've learned during that time, and what I hope to achieve next with Seneca VC. I'm especially excited about Founders + Funders, coming up on May 31st, and Seneca Advance. You can read about it here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/founders-funders-empowering-women-both-sides-table-melissa-z-moore/I'd love to hear from those of you who have taken work sabbaticals themselves (and what you learned), have made big career switches, or any feedback that you might have on what I shared.Thanks in advance for the support <3
Hi 👋 @melissazmoore! We share a similar journey! Took a 6-month sabbatical and now in VC. Would love to meet up and collaborate!
