Stephanie Perry + Roshida Dowe On Taking Sabbaticals, Working Less, and Traveling the World

Send us a text

Head Honey Felicia Pride chats with ExodUS Summit co-founders Roshida Dowe and Stephanie Perry to get the scoop on what’s GOOD about being an ex-pat extraordinaire. What happens when we de-center work and center our peace? They share how they successfully built a community for Black women to learn how to make their dreams of living abroad a reality and how they pull back the curtain to demystify the process of leaving the U.S., and all of it’s BS, behind.
