I felt stuck in America, like I wasn't thriving, that I was just surviving, and whether it was fate or the universe of capital G, God, I packed my bags and moved abroad. I lived in China for 3 years, yes, during Covid, and experienced the 3 month long Shanghai lockdown. And have recently, as of July 7th, moved to Colombia.  I have found living abroad to be such a rewarding experience, it has made me a better me, and thus I created and host an expat podcast, Are we home yet?, where I interview expats from around the world  about moving, living , and making a home abroad, whether are abroad for a long time or for a short time, whether they are students, digital nomads, business owners, teachers, retirees.  And we have real heartfelt conversations about the things that go into living in a new place, a different country, from finding a job, dating, finding their right home, raising children abroad, creating a business abroad, feeling lonely and depressed abroad, and everything else.  My goal is that people listening will find information that will help them make the move and make a home abroad.  Your time abroad doesn't have to be forever, but living in another country will forever change you.   Connect with Are you home yet? podcast below:  @ Connect with Instagram :  https://www.instagram.com/consultantexpat/  Connect via Twitter:        https://twitter.com/ConsultantExpat    Connect via Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/consultantexpat/ Connect via Medium:      https://medium.com/@consultantexpat Connect via Pinterest :  https://www.pinterest.com/consultantexpat/ Connect via Youtube:    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiQvzo9mIkhCqXTg0wfa27A

Corbie Mitleid has always been “the different one.” A writer and visionary in a completely medical family (father a doctor, mother a nurse, brother a doctor), she has always made her own path rather than take one cut for her by others. Leaving an Ivy League university after two years, Corbie struck out to find where joy and purpose lived, regardless of what she was told she “ought” to do. The path wasn’t easy. Two marriages, which didn’t last, and a constant search for the Partner Who Understood. A succession of jobs. A series of spiritual paths. Moving from Cambridge to Philadelphia to Poughkeepsie to New York City to Atlanta. Out of the blue, breast cancer—not once, but three times. Life became a roller coaster with no brakes, asking Corbie to survive divorce, abuse, poverty and life-threatening illness. But through all of this, she learned the value of the Examined Life: meeting challenges and always asking the next question, facing each new situation with strength, courage and humor. Today, Corbie brings a full toolbox to her job as a beacon of manifestation and vision for her clients. She knows what it is to create a career out of experiences. While she’s now a full-time intuitive counselor and inspirational speaker, her career has encompassed positions as a published author, a professional actress, a television producer, a radio personality, an executive recruiter and the “power behind the throne” for a number of high-profile CEOs. Corbie’s career now spans the globe, with clients worldwide. Her talents as an intuitive are featured in bestselling books. Still, her clients treasure her attitude of I’m not special, you can do what I do. “We have opportunities we can go after, and challenges to get past,” she says firmly. “My job is to give you the tools and courage to deal with both situations. Everything else is free will, and up to you!” Corbie lives in upstate New York with her husband Carle, a professional historian, two large and exuberant Maine Coon cats and a ginger pocket rocket of a rescue boy from the Bronx.

Erik is truly a man of integrity, work ethic and an overcomer. Growing up with a complicated childhood and broken home, to raising himself from the age of 14. Unfortunately finding trouble along the way desperately trying to fill the gaping voids in his life. As a young man Erik found himself empty and tired of settling for less. After the feverish pursuit of the Holy Spirit, Erik decided to surrender and trust the one that would never let him down. Once Erik gave his life to Christ, his life completely turned around. He met a beautiful woman and a new chapter was written. Now, Erik and his wife of 16+ years and their two children live in Northern Idaho and live a humble and blessed life. Together they are breaking the cycles handed down to them of addictions, depression, abuse, and lies. They are leaving a new legacy for their next generation built on a biblical foundation. Along with being the sole provider for his family, Erik is an entrepreneur and avid MMA fan. Which he has created the best MMA podcast of the northwest. He believes in giving back and honoring those that have served our country. With his companies Top Rated MMA and The Erik Allen Show he is able to do just that. By lifting others up and giving back to the community and veterans through great organizations like Hire Heroes USA. Another one of the ways Erik is able to give back is by sharing his story and encouraging others, no matter what path they are on to find hope and purpose. Erik’s natural approach ability and heart for people make him a great speaker for different events and podcasts. He knows that sometimes having the opportunity to meet someone and hear their story and how they’ve overcome is the courage someone might need to find new strength in their own battle. Erik might have been dealt a rough hand, but with the help of his Heavenly Father and a humble heart, Erik is taking each day as it comes and making it count.
