Description:
This week I am speaking with my wife Lotus. It has been a while since I recorded an expat episode and I thought that you would enjoy her perspective.
We have been living in Ajijic Mexico for 3 years. We just sold our condo in Austin Texas and by the time this episode is published I hope we have a contract accepted on a house in Ajijic.
I want you to hear her perspective because before moving to Mexico, she had never lived or worked outside of Texas. I on the other hand grew up in New Jersey, went to college in Chicago, and worked for 40 years in Austin, Texas. During that time, I worked in close to 40 different countries. All of the teaching I did around the world left me very culturally adept. My wife did not have that experience.
You will hear that my wife is extremely happy here and if would have told me that 5 years ago, I probably would not have been skeptical at best.
Now rather than a word from our sponsor, I have an announcement and an ask for you.
Starting in November of 2021, I will be scaling back some of the content creation for the Career Pivot blog and this podcast.
I want and NEED your input. I have created a survey that covers both the blog and this podcast. Please take a moment to stop now and go to CareerPivot.com/survey2021 or click here.
I want to know which types of episodes you have liked, what you would like more of and I very much need your input on the show notes, like do you even read them.
I will be keeping the survey open through the end of September of 2021.
This episode is sponsored by Career Pivot. Check out the Career Pivot Community. Make sure and pick up my latest book, Repurpose Your Career: A Practical Guide for the 2nd Half of Life Third Edition.
