When you think about moving abroad, you never think about the obsticles you face while applying for any position that would have you. I looked all over the place on how I can get a job in Denmark, but all the post and stories on life about finding a job in Denmark were all horrible. It mentions how hard it is to get a job when you don't speak the language or if you are an international. But I didn't let all those stories let me down.

Ep 27: Why I Changed Careers When I Moved To Denmark With Katie Garth
Today I really want to talk about Career Change. The more I talk to International moms I am noticing more and more people changing careers or having completely different jobs when living in Denmark.
Why do we as an international feel like we need to change careers when we live in Denmark? I definitely did a big career change when I moved to Denmark. I was working in the Beverage industry in Sales and Marketing, and when I moved to Denmark I shifted my industry and career to Technology and Telecom.
Ep 26: Going Back To School And Changing Careers In Denmark As An Expat Mother
I have talked to so many internationals/expats/immigrants living in Denmark and for some reason, many of them have the same pattern - Going back to school and Changing their Careers when they move to Denmark. I want to find out why so many expats and internationals decide to change careers when they move to Denmark.
Imagine going to school and working for years in your home country, but when you move to Denmark, nothing is equivalent to education here in Denmark. OR you simply can’t get a job because the Danish language is highly required for the positions.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO???

Ep 23: Homesickness Is Real
In this episode, I decided to do a solo episode about homesickness. I know we’ve all been there and have felt this awful feeling of Homesickness. Especially now with all these lockdowns and countries closing their borders. People can’t visit their home country…
Also, I am really feeling homesick to the point where I wonder if moving back to Los Angeles is the best option. But I know this feeling will go away when I am doing something with friends and family here in Denmark OR having a short visit to the US. But since we are so limited right now, I decided to have some suggestions for people feeling homesick in their current situation.
Homesickness - What is and why do we feel this way?
