We share everyday stories of women starting. Each episode is one woman, one story, answering one question: ‘What was a moment you backed yourself ?’ Why are we different? These are real women, real stories & real moments about the challenges we face in everyday life. None of the ‘that girl’ nonsense. Whatever moment you are facing, whether it’s going to the gym for the first time, choosing to have kids, launching your business, leaving your partner, there is a story for you. Think of it like going to coffee with a good friend and them sharing a story from their life to help you navigate yours. The goal? For you to smile and think, “I can do this.”https://the-day-i.captivate.fmtrueepisodicnopodcastEp.4 "The day I moved to London": Quitting, freezing my eggs, navigating visas, the emotions & finding an unexpected life I loveEp.4 "The day I moved to London": Quitting, freezing my eggs, navigating visas, the emotions & finding an unexpected life I loveEver had that gut feeling to pack up your life and move somewhere new? Talked yourself out of following it? This episode is your sign to listen to that feeling. 🌍✈️

Sheena shares her story of leaving the life she’d built in LA—her job, her house, the future she thought she wanted—to move to London, a city she’d never visited. All based on a gut feeling she had one night at drinks with a friend 🌃🍹

Her story delves into everything that comes making that kind do decision: the highs, the lows, the overwhelm, self-doubt and the logistics—from freezing your eggs to bringing your dog over, to getting a visa. 🚀🐶📋

The lesson of this episode: Trusting your gut doesn’t have to make sense to be right. These decisions aren’t easy but they're definetly worth it.

It’s never as scary as you think it is.

If she can do it, you can do it. 💖🙌
