Pivot-Quest Book Launch Party
A career pivot isn't just a career event; it's a life event. 🌍
Whether it starts with a promotion, a layoff, motherhood, burnout, or simply the feeling that something no longer fits, almost every meaningful change begins with the same question: What comes next?
Join authors Luis R. Baptista and Juliana Naranjo Pereira for the New York launch of Pivot-Quest at Bibliothèque, SoHo's beautiful independent bookstore, café, and wine bar. 🍷 Over a flight of thoughtfully paired wines, we'll explore why career pivots are becoming one of the defining life skills of our time.
Why This Conversation Matters
The world of work is changing faster than any generation before us has experienced. Artificial intelligence is reshaping industries, and many of us will have several careers—not just one. Yet, almost no one teaches us how to navigate the moments in between.
After interviewing over 100 career pivoters across 25 countries, the authors discovered that career pivots are rarely just about work. They're about identity, belonging, courage, and purpose. It's about giving ourselves permission to begin again.
About the Evening
This won't be a traditional author talk. Expect an intimate conversation exploring questions such as:
- Why are so many people quietly rethinking their careers?
- What uniquely human skills will matter most in the age of AI?
- Why do the biggest career decisions often become life's biggest turning points?
- How do you know when it's time to turn the page?
There will also be time for audience conversation, questions, a book signing, and the opportunity to connect with fellow professionals navigating change themselves.
About the Book
Pivot-Quest is more than a book about changing careers. It's about learning how to navigate uncertainty with greater clarity, curiosity, and confidence. Combining lived experience, global research, and practical guidance, it offers readers a hopeful roadmap for adapting to change without losing themselves in the process. Because perhaps the future of work isn't about becoming someone else; it's about remembering who you've been becoming all along.
Ticket Includes:

You won't leave with all the answers, but you may leave asking better questions. And sometimes, that's where every meaningful pivot begins. 🤔
