Unsettled
Since 2016, Unsettled has taken over 5.000 participants on a journey that’s allowed them an intentional pause to think more deeply about the question “What’s next for me?”
The process behind Unsettled has brought us to 35+ countries. Won us awards from the United Nations and recognition from publications like The New York Times. We ask the big questions, but we don’t prescribe one-size-fits-all answers or solutions.
About the Programme
What is The Unsettled Collective?
More than 5,000 purpose-driven professionals have been part of Unsettled's global travel community and retreats for remote and independent workers since 2016. Now they're launching the Unsettled Collective, year-long, virtual program and community for those serious about building the future they want. The Founding Members will take part in the program as well as shape the future of this exciting and purpose-driven network from the ground up.
Whether you’re transitioning out of a traditional career or redefining what success means to you, this community provides the time, space, and structure you need to ignite your creative spirit, find your rhythm, and adventure into the unknown.

Testimonials
Reasons to join The Unsettled Collective
Shitika Anand
I met 29 incredible people from all walks of life, and found a little part of me in all of them. These people were intelligent, witty, bloody smart, beautiful, adventurous, hilarious, and full of joy. Aside from the group lunches, family dinners and adventures, this month allowed me to share my story with the group and let me be part of others’ stories…

Unsettled has been a life changing experience for me. It’s an eye opener and an amazing opportunity that allows you to be true to yourself, meet great people, get inspired, and leave with positive energy that I’ve never felt before!

Through Unsettled’s experience, I realized how easy it was for me to close myself off to other possibilities in order to have a destination–any destination–in mind, even if it wasn’t the best one. I have started becoming more comfortable with options and possibilities to give them the space they deserve, and ultimately make a more informed decision about the paths before me.

Unsettled changed my view on decision making and instead look at life as a series of experiments- which is such a freeing concept. It liberates me from the pressure of having to make the best decisions and allow me to focus on the discovery process.
Joshua Sherman
For me, this entire year has been dedicated to stepping out of my comfort zone, pushing my limits and development as a human being. Unsettled was the cherry on top to my 'Year of New' and I would have never dreamed that I would meet such an amazing group of people. They truly made the experience for me greater than I could ever imagine.

This whole experience has reminded me again that no amount of comfort and security is worth a life of mediocrity that kills your dreams.
Yatan Blumenthal
I jumped at the chance to get a clearer view on my own decision making through Unsettled. I came out with a solid foundation and heightened self-awareness, a wealth of tools to stay on, and correct course and a community to support me in my next steps. To me, living Unsettled means to periodically examine your life with the aim to live a better, more meaningful and richer life.
