Taking a thoughtful pause

At Driftime®, our purpose has always been to empower meaningful impact – not just through our work, but also in how we show up for our IRL and URL community.

Taking a thoughtful pause

As we reflect on our journey through 2024, we’ve made the decision to take a thoughtful pause on our communications. This is not a retreat, and certainly not forever, but more a case of taking a moment to reflect, connect and create in a new and refreshing way.


With new projects on the horizon and exciting prospects upcoming, we’ve decided to focus inward to nurture fresh ideas and collaborate in new ways with our wonderful community. Stepping back from the day-to-day rhythm of creating, writing, and curating media for our readers will allow us to channel more energy into meaningful work that reaches the right people.

Taking a break from the digital noise allows us to recharge, reflect, and reassess our business balance with our editorial output. It’s a chance to listen more closely to our readers, learn from our community both within and beyond the Drifteam, and craft a refreshed digital approach that feels authentic, meaningful and has real impact.

When we return, it will be with renewed purpose and intention, sharing stories and insights that connect and resonate with our community of readers, watchers, and browsers. We can’t wait to reconnect and share what we’ve been working on – and until then, we’ll be ever-focused on making every moment count, both on and offline.

We’re stepping into a brief break, a moment of peace, and a thoughtful pause. We’ll catch you soon, no doubt. Watch this space… 👀
