Episode description

Today, I'm talking to Elizabeth Chesters. Born in Wigan, UK, Elizabeth now resides in Munich, Germany. We first met in 2015 when we both presented at a conference encouraging first-time public speakers. Since then, she has worked in-house for several organisations, both in the UK and Germany. I wanted to hear firsthand what it's like to move to another country for work when you don't know the language, the environment you're going to be in, and the personal and professional cultures. What I learned from talking to Elizabeth was that you don't necessarily need to move to an entirely different country to experience culture, clashes and discrimination because of where you are from.
