You’ve got the skills. You’ve got the idea.
But when it comes to PRICING your offers? Total panic. 😰

If you think you need to learn coding, AI, or become a VA to move abroad… think again.

You already have skills people will pay for—you just need to reposition, not reinvent.

After 2 months, 8 cities, and 3 bottles of wine… the Sicily episode is finally here—take two. And this time, the mic was actually turned on. 😅

In this unfiltered, brutally honest recap, we’re spilling all the tea (and some wine) on our scouting trip through Sicily: from getting robbed in Syracuse to being underwhelmed by seafood pasta in Palermo. We’re sharing the good, the bad, and the oh-so-trashy (literally).

So you want to move abroad with your fluffy friend... where do you even get started? 

Vaccinations, quarantines, flights, cargo... It's enough to make anyone have a meltdown. 

For many of us, our pets are family, and we're not going to leave them behind. We want to make sure the journey is safe, straightforward, and doesn't cause our pets anxiety. 

Well... thankfully, I've brought in a...

In this episode, I do a deep dive into the concept of golden handcuffs—how jobs that offer security and status can still feel like a trap. From six-figure salaries with chronic stress to the dream of moving abroad that’s always “on hold,” I explore the invi...

In this juicy episode, we cracked open a bottle of wine from Crete and spilled all the tea on what it was really like scouting Greece as a potential new home.
