Staying Relevant in a Digital Age
Technology is changing the way we work, but that doesn’t mean you need to become a technology expert to succeed.
This session will help you move beyond any fear or uncertainty about digital tools and recognise the valuable skills and experience you already have. Learn how technology can support your return to work, understand the tools employers use today, and discover how your communication, problem-solving, organisation, and people skills compliment an increasingly digital workplace.
Are you thinking about returning to work but unsure where to start? Many women worry that technology has moved on, or that they’re no longer “technical enough.” This practical and supportive session is designed to rebuild your confidence and help you understand today’s workplace.
During this session, you will:
⭐ Explore common concerns about returning to work and learn how to overcome them.
⭐ Discover how to confidently communicate your career journey.
⭐ Hear from an employer about what they look for in a candidate, workplace culture and expectations, and their hiring process
⭐ Gain a practical understanding of what “tech-driven work” means in today’s workplace.
⭐ Learn why you don’t need to be a STEM or technology expert to thrive in modern roles.
⭐ Build confidence using everyday workplace tools, including Microsoft Teams, LinkedIn and AI tools.
⭐ Receive practical tips on job applications, interviews, and presenting your skills and experience effectively.
Whether you’re returning after a career break, caring responsibilities, or simply looking for a fresh start, this session will provide practical insights, employer perspectives, and the confidence to take your next step back into the workplace.

Mid‑Year Career Planning: Regroup, Refocus, Reset
When the job market gets tough: Reset Your Confidence, Career & Direction for the Next 6 Months
Mid-year is often the point where many women pause and realise that life, work and priorities may have shifted more than expected.
For some, the year may have brought redundancy, burnout, caring responsibilities, confidence loss, health challenges or uncertainty about what comes next. For others, it may simply feel like time is moving quickly and they want the second half of the year to feel more intentional, energised and aligned.
This supportive and practical workshop is designed to help women reflect on where they are now, reconnect with their strengths and priorities, and reset their direction for the next six months.
Facilitated by Colette Leeson of Timely Careers alongside guest speaker Jo Rose from Conscious Change, the session combines practical career coaching with wellbeing, resilience and mindset support.
Participants will leave with:
⭐ Greater clarity and renewed motivation
⭐ Practical tools to manage self-doubt and change
⭐ Increased confidence and resilience
⭐ A realistic six-month action plan to start implementing immediately

This workshop is designed for women who may be:
⭐ Returning to work after a career break

Rebuild Your Career – On Your Terms
Returning to work today is about far more than updating a CV.
Many women are returning after a career break, redundancy, caring responsibilities, burnout, health challenges, or simply a growing sense that the career they once had no longer fits the life they want now.
At the same time, the world of work has changed dramatically:
⭐ Many women are no longer looking to “go back”. They are looking to move forward differently
⭐ AI is reshaping recruitment and applications
⭐ LinkedIn and networking matter more than ever
⭐ Employers are increasingly looking for adaptability, resilience and digital confidence
⭐ Flexible and hybrid working expectations continue to evolve
What We’ll Explore
This practical and supportive four-week online programme is designed to help women returners rebuild their careers with confidence, clarity and future-ready skills.
Rather than focusing only on “getting a job,” the programme helps participants:
⭐ Reconnect with their professional identity
⭐ Understand their transferable skills and value
⭐ Navigate modern recruitment processes confidently
⭐ Use AI tools effectively and ethically
⭐ Strengthen confidence and visibility
⭐ Prepare for modern interviews and networking
⭐ Build a sustainable career strategy that fits their life now
This programme runs every Tuesday for 4-weeks, commencing on Tuesday 4th August.
📅 Start Date: Tuesday 4th August
📅 End Date: Tuesday 25th August
📍 Where: Online
⏰ Time: 11:00am – 12:00pm
This is a business for women and we’re not going to ignore the fact that progress for women returners needs to happen faster than it is. It’s our duty to get Timely out there and stop so many women feeling dispirited.
