  • Home is Where Your People Are with Shane Batista

    In this episode, Clare is joined by Shane Batista who is originally from Cuba. The discrimination she experienced led to her having to leave her home country. Since then, Shane has lived in the USA, Spain and now the UK.

    Her journey is a complex one, with many dramatic ups and downs. Shane leaves nothing out and is very honest about her journey and her observations of her new countries are interesting and entertaining.

    There is no path in life, forge your own path.


    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • As a lesbian growing up in Cuba Shane faced a lot of discrimination.
    • A chance meeting with an American in the chemist where Shane worked led to her being one of the few people to legally leave Cuba and live in the USA.
    • Life in America was tough at times, but Shane´s experiences there turned her into a strong person.
    • The weather in the UK really is as cold as people tell you.
    • Getting a job in Spain was hard for Shane despite her being an experienced chef and speaking 3 languages.
    • Shane liked Spain but experienced quite a bit of racism while living there.
    • Shane feels comfortable in the UK. But it does not feel like home. For Shane being with the right people is what makes a place feel like home to her.

    ‘That country (the USA) built me, made me a strong person.’

    ‘My days in Spain were bittersweet.’

    ‘People are home.’

  • Making the Move from Trinidad to the UK with Levi Emir

    In this episode, Clare is joined by Levi Emir a marketing professional who hails from Trinidad, where he worked for an American company. He has lived in the UK for 5 years and his wife had permanently relocated there a couple of years earlier.

    Levi shares his insights into the differences between Trinidadian, American and British cultures. Including work-life balance, racism, job security and making new friends. They also discuss the impact the recent UK demonstrations and riots are having on Levi and his family. Levi´s job means he keeps track of search behaviour, so he also shares his insights into how online behaviour reflects and informs the way society develops and acts.


    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Europe has a better work-life balance.
    • People in the UK are generally very friendly and genuinely seem to care. Overall, Levi has had a good experience there.
    • All countries have some xenophobia, and it is expressed differently in each culture.
    • The race and immigration riots in the UK briefly changed the way Levi and his family lived. Levi and his wife feel that keeping an eye on the level of racism is wise.
    • The similarity between the law systems of Trinidad and the UK has helped Levi.
    • Levi´s wife hears more expressions of racism than he does. She is mixed race but looks white, so people say things to her they wouldn´t say around Levi who is of African descent.


    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘I tried to stay away from going on a train or going anywhere long distance for the period of time that I saw riots taking place.’

    ‘Food always features as an aspect of moving countries.’

    ‘In our case, going back to Trinidad, there´s a general expectation that us coming from a first world country, we need to be the ones to pay.’


    ABOUT THE GUEST

    Levi is from Trinidad and Tobago and now lives in the United Kingdom. He is a creative digital marketing and advertising professional with 15+ years experience with the management of global paid search (PPC) marketing campaigns and stakeholder relationships.

  • Rewire Your Limiting Thoughts and Beliefs with Dr. Khadija Siddiqui

    Today, Clare is joined by Dr. Khadija Siddiqui, a wife, mom, cardiologist, and entrepreneur of Pakistani descent. She spent her early years in the UAE before moving to America.

    Khadija and Clare discuss how to overcome overwhelm so you can grow and evolve as a person while still fully caring for your family.


    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Women are universally encouraged to play small. When you reject this, you achieve more.
    • Growing as a person requires life changes, some of which can be difficult.
    • Who you are depends, in part, on the role you are fulfilling at a given moment.
    • Embrace all of who you are, rather than shutting down aspects to conform.
    • Levelling up in your personal life automatically means you achieve more at work.


    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘Embrace the imperfections and stop worrying about it.’

    ‘You almost have to wear two different hats based on where you are showing up.’

    ‘Anytime we want to change something, our mind wants to resist us.’


    ABOUT THE GUEST

    Dr. Khadija Siddiqui is a dynamic force in the world of high-performance coaching, seamlessly blending her expertise as a cardiologist, entrepreneur, and devoted mother. Born and raised in a patriarchal culture, she courageously navigated the challenges of moving countries and balancing her multifaceted identity. 

    As the creator of the Holistic Success Blueprint, she empowers high-achieving professionals to rewire their limiting thoughts and beliefs, breaking through sabotage patterns to achieve success in all elements of their lives. Her unique framework ensures participants take concepts to action and integration. 

    Passionate about her own continuous personal development, she is also working on her NLP certification and learning about advanced meditation and manifestation techniques. Dr. Siddiqui believes in the dynamic flow of life, where each day calls for a unique balance of her various roles.

  • The Trials and Triumphs of Moving to the USA with Tunji Akinsehinwa

    In this episode, Clare is in conversation with her husband, Tunji Akinsehiwa, Boston University Associate Professor and international cinemaphotographer. Tunji shares what it was like to be the person who moved for work. He talks about juggling the needs of your family with settling into a new job while adapting to a culture that is very foreign to you.

    He and Clare discuss some of the challenges they faced when moving to the USA. In particular, the ones that caught them a bit unawares. For example, surprising cultural differences, realising you do not have all of the rights you were expecting to have, dealing with bureaucracy and additional expenses.


    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • On top of the stress of starting a new job there is a lot of anxiety surrounding settling family members into a new country.
    • Getting the timing of the paperwork, travel arrangements and finding a home is difficult and things rarely go as planned.
    • Moving to a developed, English-speaking country is still not easy. Things do not always work in the way you expect and there are significant cultural differences.
    • Often, the rights of the partner of the person with the work visa can be more limited than you expect. Sometimes they are not allowed to work too.
    • Most days, something happens that reminds you that you are from outside. 
    • If you want to live abroad, make it your intention to do so, instead of thinking of it as a dream. Once you set it as an intention, it is far more likely to happen.


    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘We literally started again, it´s almost like being born again. ´

    ‘If you don't know the right questions to ask, you don't ask them.’

    ‘The rose-tinted glasses have come off that´s for sure.’

    ‘At least 20% of the job is to inspire your students. To make them believe they can achieve great things.’
