So my newest venture is an online video series called expaTView where we interview expats, experts and global mobility specialists to find out the most effective tips, strategies and advice for successful expat living.
In our second show we talk to the famous Apple Gidley, writer and serial expat and Joanne Hughes, International Connections of Houston president.
After all I have to follow my own advice don’t i? Dive into something new and learn as you go? That is exactly what Renee Lederman and I are doing. Neither of us are interviewers or have experience on TV (though I can be a bit of an exhibitionist) but we want to share other people’s ideas and talents – and reach out to expat women everywhere.
We also want to encourage expat women everywhere to pay it forward and support our global sisters at Kiva where we can provide microcredit loans to women in developing and third world countries to enable them to become self-sufficient.
Please help us spread the word by sharing the interviews with your colleagues, adding our link to your websites and blogrolls and joining the discussions on our Facebook page… we also welcome your suggestions for interviews. What would you love to know about expat life and overcoming its many challenges?
Lastly, we would love to find some sponsors to help us continue with the programs… we are funding this ourselves at present but need sponsors to continue!
Enjoy and looking forward to hearing from you!
I’m in awe of the fact that you’ve taken on this huge project, Marie. I’ve been eagerly watching (I especially liked the episode on women’s groups) and look forward to new episodes.
Kudos also for promoting a worthy cause in Kiva. I’m on my sixth loan with them, and it constantly amazes me how much can be done with such a small amount of money. I don’t need to change the world — I’m awfully happy helping one woman make her life a little better.
Thanks Maria – it’s always a pleasure to have you on my side! Tis a work in progress and we have lots of plans!
