Send us a textIn today's episode, I'm happy to have another guest.What do you get when you blend 24 years of international adventures, three growing daughters, and a natural gift for connecting with others? Meet our fascinating guest, who's transformed her journey through Dubai, Amsterdam, London, and California into a unique approach to coaching that touches hearts across continents.Her path to coaching is as colorful as her passport stamps. Starting as a parenting trainer, she noticed something fascinating during her group sessions - beneath the typical parenting questions lay deeper patterns and challenges. This spark of insight led her to pivot into one-on-one coaching, where she could help people unpack not just their suitcases, but their full potential.With three daughters (19, 16, and 12) and a lifetime of cross-cultural experiences, she brings authentic wisdom to every coaching session. Her specialty? Supporting fellow expats, particularly women who've embarked on the bold adventure of international life. Because who better to guide you through the maze of cultural adjustments than someone who's navigated it all while keeping a family thriving?Some might raise an eyebrow at coaches who specialize in their own life challenges, but my guest sees it differently. Her eyes light up as she explains how living through these experiences allows her to truly understand her clients' journeys. It's not just empathy - it's the kind of deep recognition that makes clients feel instantly understood.Today, she's passionate about helping women rediscover their confidence, especially those feeling somewhat lost between time zones and life transitions. Through her work, she's proving that every challenge overcome becomes a lantern to light someone else's path. Now that's what we call turning global experience into golden wisdom! ✨You can find her here: https://www.anelor.coach/Support the showThanks for listening today!

Taking Route Podcast | Expat Women Making the World Their Home
At the time of recording this episode, we had not released a podcast episode or posted ANYTHING on Taking Route for a solid nine months. Denise, Melissa, and Alicia certainly didn't intend to go dark for so long, but we just so happened to all go through pretty intense seasons of life all at the same time. So, for this episode, we thought it might be a good idea to catch up with you guys and discuss something fun, something hard, and something hopeful we've each experienced over the last several months. We think you'll all be able to relate and hopefully glean some truth to apply to your own life (or save for later when the hard season comes). _______ There are so many ways to get involved in our community.

Expatriate women often share a common feeling of loneliness. . But guest Navine Eldesouki decided to take this shared feeling and create a community out of it. Navine is the founder of Coffee With an Expat, a female-centered space for meaningful connection and storytelling over a cup of coffee. I asked Navine about how she grew her supportive global network for women. Here are her insights that you'll learn in this episode: The story behind “Coffee With an Expat” The importance of stepping outside of your comfort zone as an expat Finding one's purpose and achievement Lessons from creating a global community and living an expat lifestyle It all started when Navine met her husband in Egypt and she found herself isolated and lacking independence after growing up in Australia. After living a nomadic life for over two decades, establishing homes across five continents, seven countries, and fourteen houses, and volunteering extensively with the Syrian refugee crisis she realized something– she was born to build a community. It gave her purpose!

In this episode, we're celebrating the latest release of Liturgies and Laments for the Sojourner: Volume One, co-authored by Heather Fallis, Tamika Rybinski, and our very own Alicia Boyce. This book is the perfect companion for anyone who finds themselves living the life of a foreigner. It's also a great resource for friends and family to reference when they want to pray more specifically for the sojourners they love. Denise, Melissa, and Alicia each discuss a couple of the prayers from the book that have resonated with them, and pair it with a personal story of why the prayer is so relatable. It's so evident these prayers were written from a place of personal experience—you'll feel like the authors have pulled the words straight from your own heart and mind.

Taking Route Podcast | Expat Women Making the World Their Home
Most of us are probably familiar with the book, “Where There Is No Doctor.” It's a medical manual available in more than 85 languages and provides practical, easily understood information on how to diagnose, treat, and prevent common injuries and illnesses. Of course, nowadays, folks are more likely to consult Google, WebMD, or send a quick WhatsApp message to their doctor friend to gather necessary information. “Why not make an appointment and visit a doctor in town,” one might ask. Well, depending on where you live in the world, the solution may not be so simple. Having a medical emergency or getting really sick while living in a foreign context can feel very intimidating and scary. There's often a language barrier to hurdle, and sometimes quality medical care is a long drive or plane ride away. In this episode, we'll be discussing some of our crazy “how did this happen??” medical stories, along with a few stories that really made us lean into our faith in the Lord. A quick note: we want to acknowledge that some medical stories turn out much differently for people while living abroad. We want to hold space for those who've experienced loss while living in a foreign context and/or have needed to return to their passport country indefinitely because of a medical diagnosis. While we didn't dive into that category of medical stories for this episode, it is a topic we'd like to cover in the future.

It's quite challenging to be an ex-pat, more so being a woman ex-pat. For women, the ability to work remotely is more than just a reduced commute time and increased productivity. Remote work can provide the flexibility needed to stay on top of family commitments without compromising their working hours. Breaking the barriers in this male-dominated world, women find themselves challenged at work and in their personal lives. Camilla Quintana, an ex-pat empowerment coach, understands the hardships of being the fairer sex in the digital world. This episode of The New Nomad talks about empowering women, especially those who are ex-pats and global women. Camilla and our hosts, Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski, discussed the life of being always on the go. They talked about why, in this fast-paced world, women need support and where they could get the support they need. With a lot of positivity oozing from their conversation, women (and men alike) would find this episode empowering and educating. So enjoy the show and always bear in mind that support is always available if you know where to look.[5:37] The challenges of the trailing spouse[8:18] Grieving those we left behind in our ex-pat journey[12:53] The price that relationships pay[16:28] Anchors help you get motivated[18:17] No need to fear what's on the other side[27:10] The best coaches build you upGUEST BIO:Camilla Quintana helps ex-pat & global women step into next-level confidence and embrace their distinctiveness, so they can make an impact - wherever they are in the world.

With today's fast paced lifestyle, particularly if we are globally mobile, it can be so difficult to make the time to commit to our dreams and our goals. This challenge is even greater for parents in general, so imagine how complex it would be if you were a solo parenting mom. If a solo-parenting mom can do it, so can you! "I decided to be my own career manager and do it just like I would have if I was working for a company"In this week's episode you will hear the inspiring story of Rhoda Bangerter and her insightful tips on how to make the time, even if you do not have the time. Rhoda Bangerter is the founder of A Multicultural Life, a certified coach for solo parenting moms in long distance marriages and the author of the book “Holding the Fort Abroad”. She was raised in France, with a Welsh dad, a Syrian Armenian mum and is married to a Swiss man. Her husband has traveled abroad for work throughout almost their whole marriage. During this time, Rhoda has been solo-parenting and experimenting with various ways to hold the fort while creating a joint life in a long-distance relationship. Along the way, she realized there were a huge number of moms around the world who experienced the same challenges but with no resources to guide them through this journey. This led her to run extensive research, share her learnings through her book, ‘Holding The Fort Abroad', and develop her coaching services to support solo parenting moms in long distance relationships. Rhoda speaks about the challenges of solo parenting and how to thrive in multicultural marriages. She has been featured in various platforms such as Families in Global Transition, Coffee with Expat Women, and Ute's International Lounge.

Do you remember the day when you moved to a new place? How about moved to a new country? I bet it wasn't easy to settle down, figure out the new culture, make new friends, or find a job. That happens to a lot of immigrants moving abroad, especially women. It can be a very lonely journey, leaving behind the place you used to call home. Most immigrants have to restart their lives when they do. It's very hard, especially if they don't speak the language. My guest today, Nyna Caputi, also had a difficult time finding her community when she first moved to the US from India. It was so hard for her in fact, that she started her business the Expat woman, hoping to create a community. She ended up creating a social enterprise that helps to inspire, connect, and empower immigrant and native-born women across the globe through online and offline events, networking opportunities, and valuable resources and content. With over 12,000 members, they have hosted over 250 workshops, conferences, hackathons, webinars, career fairs, and networking events. On top of that, Nyna is a filmmaker, blogger, advocate, and speaker on gender violence, startups, leadership, cross-cultural skills, diversity, and expat life. She is also the winner of the ‘Global Influencer 2019' award from Women Empowerment Awards North America. In today's episode, Nyna shares about her struggles finding a community when she moved to the United States, what inspired her to find the Expat Woman, how she scaled her business to make 6 figures, her advice for new entrepreneurs, and her 3 “P” mantra. Tune in now to hear her empowering story. Please rate and review our podcast so that it can be reached by more people like you.

Let’s transition to your work experience at Google (over 13+ years), and making the jump to HeadSpin + tell the story of how HeadSpin got its name. 1. Let’s talk about the importance of delivering flawless digital experiences across all channels. I think this is a massive gap in the marketplace today for a large number of companies. What I gleaned from HeadSpin's CEO is that the platform's goal is to unify business, development, DevOps, and product teams to deliver high-quality, innovative digital experiences across web, mobile, and 5G. Talk about some use cases and examples the audience can take away right now. 2. In our podcast intro call, you mentioned a phrase, "if your app/web/game that can be connected, it can be tested." With more data than ever before, captured by companies, how does HeadSpin help those companies benchmark against its competition? 3. Quick follow up on digital experiences. What are some traits of companies that are leading digital experiences very well? 4. How HAPI is your app? The mobile industry’s first-ever application performance index for benchmarking the relative latency of leading apps in a given category. For our inaugural report, the capability was showcased in prototype for digital experience leaders for contactless shopping, restaurant delivery, and food delivery apps in the US. Talk about the HAPI index and the benchmarking process. 5. Let's chat about Headspin's peer comparisons - Grocery Apps in the US. Headspin examined how Target, Costco, and Instacart apps compared to their peers. Why is it important to provide a seamless user experience throughout the user journey? 60 Seconds TechTables 1.

Listen to today's episode to be inspired to spark joy in your home and make the most of the space where you are now spending nearly all of your time.

The Bangkok Podcast | Conversations on Life in Thailand's Buzzing Capital
Part 2 of a panel discussion with four guests! Why four? Well, everyone knows that cliche about Bangkok being a heaven for expat men, but we didn’t know much about what it’s like for expat women. It stands to reason that one woman can’t speak for all women, so we upped the game a bit. We discuss a myriad of stories that show how complex, nuanced, and (depending on the person) important the issue is to a life well lived in the capital. Among many other things, the ladies discuss dating horror stories, advice for new joiners, adjusting standards and expectations, and expat women-only social media groups to vet potential mates, advice for newbies. Also discussed - after a move to Thailand does a male 5 become a 7, and does a female 7 become a 5? Why are Thai men shy about approaching expat women, and why are so many expat men bitter against expat women? What is a “gik”- and does Greg have one? (spoiler - hells to the no). As always, the podcast will continue to be 100% funded by listeners just like you who get some special swag from us. And we’ll keep our Facebook, Twitter, and LINE accounts active so you can send us comments, questions, or whatever you want to share.
The Bangkok Podcast | Conversations on Life in Thailand's Buzzing Capital
It’s a very unique episode of the Bangkok Podcast! Greg and Ed do a first for the the show, with a panel discussion with four guests! Why four? Well, everyone knows that cliche about Bangkok being a heaven for expat men, but we didn’t know much about expat women. It stands to reason that one woman can’t speak for all women, so we upped the game a bit. After some introductions, we get into the meat of the show, with a myriad of stories that show how complex, nuanced, and (depending on the person) important the issue is to a life well lived in the capital. Among many other things, the ladies discuss the differences between the attention they get back home and what they get in Bangkok, what it’s like to date Thai men (and women), the quality of farang men in Thailand, and a host of other issues. There are also some hilarious(ly awful) Tinder stories, anecdotes about being approached on the street, issues that single moms have to deal with, discussion about western women who leave Thailand bitter and angry, and how Asian American women are treated in Thailand. Suffice it to say more than one can of worms are opened up in part one of a two-part mega interview. As always, the podcast will continue to be 100% funded by listeners just like you who get some special swag from us. And we’ll keep our Facebook, Twitter, and LINE accounts active so you can send us comments, questions, or whatever you want to share.
Today’s Mindful Expat Guest is Claudia Landini! Claudia is an intercultural trainer and mobile careers coach. Originally from Italy, Claudia has been living abroad for the past 27 years, since 1989! She has lived in four African countries (Sudan, Angola, Congo Brazzaville and Guinea Bissau), two Latin American countries (Honduras and Peru), in Jerusalem, and she now lives in Jakarta, Indonesia. She also speaks quite an impressive number of languages – Italian, English, French, Spanish, and German – and as if that weren’t already enough, she also knows a little bit of Portuguese, Bahasa Indonesia, and Arabic. Claudia is the founder of the non-profit organization ExpatClic, which is an online platform and community supporting expat women in a number of different ways through their transitions abroad – both personally and professionally. She is also an intercultural trainer and cross-cultural transitions coach with a focus on helping expat women develop and maintain their careers as they move abroad. What you’ll hear in this episode: • Some of the challenges that expat partners may face in their careers when they move abroad and how this can impact their sense of professional (and personal) identity. • The importance of finding meaningful, satisfying activities that allow us to continue to learn and grow -- whether or not we have an official job that pays the bills. • How our professional paths can evolve and shift when we move abroad in ways that we might not have envisioned but that can be incredibly enriching and satisfying. • How moving abroad and navigating some of these challenges can actually teach us important things about ourselves and foster not only profession but also personal development. Resources mentioned in this episode: • Claudia mentioned "MOOCs" or Massive Open Online Courses, which are often available for free. To learn more about MOOCs, click here (this Wikipedia entry has a great list of MOOC platforms that you can explore further). Some other great resources for finding MOOCs include: www.mooc.org, www.coursera.org, and www.edx.org. • Claudia mentioned the book, Exile, by Turkish author Ciler Ilhan (the source of her inspirational quote!). • Claudia also mentioned the book, Lost in Translation by Eva Hoffman, which she recommends for anyone moving or living abroad and navigating cultural challenges. • We also discussed the platform that Claudia developed, ExpatClic, which supports expat women in a number of different areas of their lives when they move abroad. Some sub-projects associated with ExpatClic also include: Expat à Table, Expat Books, Expat Women at Work, and What Expats Can Do. These are wonderful resources, and I highly recommend you check them out!
