In this episode of the Expat Empire Podcast, we will be hearing from Dinasha Cellura. After building an impressive career in Silicon Valley, Dinasha and her husband realized that they weren't quite ready to settle down yet. Before long, her husband received an offer of a job transfer to Tokyo, Japan, so Dinasha followed along, unsure if she would be able to continue her career. Despite the concerns of the other trailing spouses that she knew, Dinasha persevered in her job search and found a position in Japan.      She continued working at the Japanese company even after her husband's job led the family to move to Singapore. After a few years and a few job changes in Singapore, they all headed back to the United States where she had to reintegrate into Silicon Valley.     Dinasha has lived and worked in multiple countries, juggling her career alongside raising her kids, and has faced some cultural challenges and heartbreaking tragedy along the way. Listen in on the conversation to hear how she did it and how you can contribute to her new foundation!     LEARN in this episode:   ✔ How to continue your career abroad even as a trailing spouse raising children   ✔ Tips for negotiating salaries and contracts abroad, especially as a trailing spouse   ✔ Some of the professional and personal cultural differences between countries in Asia     FIND Dinasha at:   ► Live Like Leo Foundation: https://livelikeleo.org     -----     SCHEDULE your free consulting call: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireContact   DOWNLOAD our free Top 10 Tips for Moving Abroad eBook: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireTop10   REVIEW us: https://ratethispodcast.com/expatempire   DONATE to support the show: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireDonation   FOLLOW us on Social Media:   ► Instagram: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireIG   ► Facebook: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireFB   ► LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireLI
