12 Countries in 12 Months with Sarah Aviram

from Building the Best You · host Jeanne Collins

What if the life you’re “supposed” to build isn’t the life you actually want? In this episode of Building the Best You, Jeanne Collins sits down with author, speaker, and former HR leader Sarah Aviram to explore what she learned while working remotely across 12 countries in 12 months. Sarah shares how a bold professional experiment became a transformative personal journey, inspiring her new book, The Scenic Route: Following My Inner Compass Across 12 Countries in 12 Months. From redefining success and strengthening self-trust to navigating fear, identity, and constant change, Sarah offers a powerful reminder that there is no single path to a meaningful life. She and Jeanne also discuss listening to your intuition, questioning the “shoulds” that shape your choices, taking chances on yourself, and finding the courage to design a life that reflects who you are today.Sarah's book recommendation: Outliers by Malcolm GladwellMore about Sarah:Sarah Aviram is an international keynote speaker and leadership coach who helps people navigate uncertainty and take ownership of their choices, motivation, and impact.
