Welcome To
The Empowered Expat Woman
Your Ally In Building Global Women’s Confidence & Creating Empowered Narratives.
Our Journey
Founded in 2018, The Empowered Expat Woman has been dedicated to spotlighting and validating the often overlooked female experience of relocating abroad. We offer tailored Coaching programs, workshops, The Empowered Expat Woman Podcast / Show, as well as our blog and content to support these women.
Despite our focus on Expat Women, we’ve recognized that experiences like loneliness, lack of support, significant barriers to employment, dependency, and otherness are universal and shared by female migrants and refugees. Fostering self-trust and confidence transcends privilege and is key to empowering women from all walks of life.
Our aim is to be an active ally and advocate for all women living abroad.
Our Mission
In the spirit of global sisterhood, The Empowered Expat Woman is committed to empowering women living abroad.
Our mission is to cultivate a supportive space for them, guiding them to fully trust in themselves, confidently go after their inspiring goals and claim their place in the world.
We embrace our roles as ambassadors of diversity, each contributing a unique perspective.
We believe in the power of women to (re)write their narrative, and support them in crafting empowered life stories that enrich individual journeys and contribute positively to the collective empowerment of women worldwide.
Let’s Join Forces
Whether you’re a podcast host, event organiser, an NGO, political leader, or an influential figure shaping the discourse of expat life, immigration and women’s empowerment, your collaboration is vital. Let’s work together to amplify our impact, break down barriers, and empower women globally.
