Ep. 60 – Emily dos Santos

Let’s talk about moving abroad, dropping timeline pressures and societal norms, and manifesting the life you want.

Well, it’s been a minute. But the good news is that you finally get to listen to this episode, featuring my lovely friend, brand strategist Emily dos Santos (formerly Kiloh). Like me, Emily recently followed her heart and ambitions to move abroad. I went east to England and she went south to Brazil. In this episode, we have a good chat about our experiences of an international move, how it turns out we manifested said moves, and living our best ex-pat lives. (Recorded Autumn 2022)
