Episode 4 of The Global Woman Series! This summer, every week you’ll get to listen to an honest conversation with a woman navigating life between worlds. The women I interview are inspiring, authentic and an example in leading themselves - all in their own way - and I can’t wait to share the convos! Make sure to subscribe to not miss an episode.

And next up is the inspiring brand provocateur & Mexico City fan girl Erica Reitman! I’ve been following Erica for years and her vibrant energy & creativity has inspired me SO much - in my business, but also in my life abroad and back home again. I knew a conversation with her on the podcast would contain so many nuggets of wisdom & inspiration - and I was right.

In this episode, Erica shares all about her expat life in Mexico - which isn’t just one chapter… After spending a few years in Mexico and then trying for a year to settle back in the US again, Erica realized her home country wasn’t the right place for her now. So she & her husband decided to move back to their beloved Mexico City (happening right as we speak) - raising a lot of questions from others who are trying to understand why they’re ‘coming back’ on their decision.

Erica shares openly how she felt in the US, what helped her make this big decision, and how she continues to build her self-trust. Moreover, we also talk about how you can set up your home space so that it truly inspires you (even if it’s furnished!) and about Erica’s hack of ‘merching’ her life.

I absolutely loved this conversation and the vibrant energy that Erica brought with her. I hope you enjoy this episode.
