About this listen

In this episode of The Care Break, Rosemary is joined by Jean Evans to explore the role connection plays in sustaining confidence, adaptability and engagement with work over time. Drawing on Jean’s lived experience and professional insight, the conversation examines how caring and career interruption can reduce confidence, and how connection helps rebuild it.

This episode shows that connection underpins confidence, visibility and opportunity at work particularly during periods of caring and life disruption.

Connection supports:

  • confidence and self-belief
  • negotiation and boundary-setting
  • staying visible and engaged with work
  • resilience during caring and career interruption

The conversation also considers what this means for workplaces, and how supporting connection can help people remain engaged with work through periods of change.
