Listen Later

On episode 31 of The Move Abroad Coach Podcast, Elizabeth Lavis joins us to talk about her experience of being a traveling writer and how she made that work when she decided that it was time to leave her hometown of Buffalo, NY. At 35 years old, Elizabeth decided that life was simply too short to not do what we wanted to do — so she moved abroad! 

With a plan of just 6 months abroad to live abroad, Elizabeth’s plans quickly shifted as she discovered just how much she loved it. With leaving her sales job behind, her family and friends supporting this endeavor, and no plan ahead, she took the leap of doing what makes her happy! So how did she do it exactly? How did she land freelance gigs? What about figuring out those next steps? Tune in to today’s episode to learn exactly what she did.

Here's what we talk about in today's episode:

  • It is NEVER too late to go after what you want in life.
  • Rejection? Don’t let it scare you! Keep moving forward.
  • So how does one pitch themselves exactly?
  • Does Elizabeth regret making this jump in life? Find out for yourself.
