Sabbaticals are rare, deep-dive opportunities to pause, reflect, and grow – professionally and personally.
I started Sabbatical Studio to help academics make the most of their sabbaticals and carry that same clarity, creativity, and momentum into everyday academic life. Renewal doesn’t stop when the sabbatical ends.

Hi! I’m Liz
Let’s rethink sabbaticals
I’m a professor who believes we need better ways to prepare for, experience, and extend the impact of academic leaves. My first sabbatical was equal parts growth and curveballs, and it convinced me that sabbaticals shouldn’t just be once-in-a-decade events – with intentionality, sabbaticals are extraordinary opportunities for reflection, growth, and renewal. That’s why I started Sabbatical Studio: to share strategies, support, and inspiration for building long, creative academic careers in ways that actually fit your life.
