Welcome back!
This week is another short solo - show
It did not seem right to ignore the trial for the killing of George Floyd or to ignore how heavy it weighs on me as black woman. So this week I decided to give a little perspective on what it means to belong when you are the first generation born outside your other home country.
This led me to also talk about:
- The room you never want to go into at Immigration.
- No Dogs & No Blacks and
- why I'm going to talk more about race
.

I'm back! Episode 17 is a hoot!
I got the chance to speak with Eleanor Mayrhofer an American who decided to visit Germany for a year and hasn't returned.
We are taking you back to the nineties when tech was meeting art and Photoshop was becoming popular.
Eleanor got the travel bug early traveling to India with her aunt, after college she decided to go to Germany for one year and hasn't returned.
We cover stepping out of the comfort of the expat bubble, building a business and the hard decision to close it down.
Sometimes the answer to what you should do is right in front of you you just have to tweak it a little bit.

Nina Boons is a Health Coach, Mum of two, globetrotting German and business owner.
In this episode of The Enterprising Expat we take it back to when people planned their trips with The Lonely Planet.
We take a leap to Australia then to The Emirates, pause in London and make a few other detours along the way.
Nina talks frankly about some of the choices we can ease into when we are the "trailing spouse" and how an undiagnosed condition was the launching point for a business she didn't plan.
Thank you for listening to the Enterprising Expat

Katie Uniacke is a Brit living in Grenada in Spain. When we recorded this episode Spain was in lockdown.
It seems fitting to get stories about how expats are handling social-distancing and life under lockdown.
In this episode we talk about:
- Living your beliefs
- Living the digital nomad lifestyle
- Accepting horrible rates as a freelancer
- Dodging the quarter-life crisis and
- What to do when you realise you can't afford a glass of wine at the pub when you visit home.

How does moving to a new country affect your body confidence? In fact, how does everyday life affect the way you look at yourself? We are bombarded with images of how we should look and we almost forget to question these assumptions.
Cliona Bryne is a Body confidence coach who is helping women love and appreciate their bodies for magnificent vessels that they are. In this episode, we talk about:
- The major surgery she had at age 20.
- How a stint as an international student gave her the travel/expat bug.
- Why every woman needs an emergency stash.
- And finally how taking a leap of faith led to everything falling into place.
Thank you for listening I appreciate it, please share this podcast with a friend.

I was so excited to be out in touch with Jessica Hammer, Founder of Taste of Toulouse.
This Enterprising Expats introduces English speakers to French food in Toulouse with her walking food tours. After a Successful Marketing Career, it was time for a change, but that can be so frightening when you don't what the change should be and what direction to go in.
Part of the Journey from Chicago to Toulouse involved a holiday, an interesting visa and dash of determination.

Welcome to Episode 5!! Today is 5 tips to help you settle in your new country.
This is my first solo show and in it, I tell you a little about my expat journey. What I did wrong, the twisting journey to starting my own business and what I did when I had no clients.
Finding yourself in a new country with no support system can be overwhelming for anyone. What simple steps can you take to form a community? How do you form friendships and a new professional network?
The answer is slowly but in this short episode, I tell you what works for me.
This episode takes us from Lesotho - Sierra Leone - Lebanon and finally the US.
I ask a few questions in the episode and I would love to feature your answers in the show
- Do you and your spouse do everything together? Do you think spouses should have their own friend outside of friends you have as a couple?
- One thing you've tried in your new country that you'd never consider "back home"?
- Do you have a messy startup story? How many twists and turns did you go through before you hit on what have now?

Gabriela is a psychologist and expat coach, she also has a ready laugh and amazing stories!
This episode begins in Chile with a predecessor to couch-surfing, she became a lovepat and moved to Austria. Giving herself 3 months to learn the language and to find a job, her well-structured plans went a little sideways.
As orderly as Austria is, a longing for her native tongue and the sun led her to move to Spain.
We cover a lot in this episode our thoughts on online dating apps, making friends and when you get bad advice and you aren't able to work in your chosen field.

Janine Christie is hilarious!! The brains and humour behind the blog: My Expatations.
We cover a lot of ground with a lot of laughter. I even had to mute my mic!
Janine is a lovepat, she fell in love with a Welshman and went to live in Spain. On this journey, there was a stint in London and an incident with a hammer.
Janine arrived in Spain just before the economy went belly-up and was unable to find fulfilling work. Then there's the whole issue of your spouse supporting you financially, and how awkward and disempowering that can feel when you have always been financially independent. Is it fair?
Janine found her feet and her voice again by reassessing her skills and ever so gently poking fun at the dance that is creating friendships in expat communities. Out of this, her blog was finally launched after a year under wraps, and now she is providing salty copywriting services.

Allison Lounes is an American living in France. She started learning French in Middle school and carried her love of the language to College.
She wasn't put-off by anyone asking her what on earth she was going to do with a French degree, she just had an inkling she was going to speak French professionally.....somehow.
Fast forward a few years and the most amazing subject for a Masters degree, that I've ever heard of. Allison is settled in France with her family and running her company Paris Unraveled guiding her clients to find the appropriate visa for their situation.
Allison isn't afraid or shy to talk about:
- The loneliness that can face a lot of spouses
- Her battle with depression and
- Her biggest mistake with a client
What do you need to know before moving to France? What should you be thinking about? This episode will give you food for thought.
