Success Story: Stacie Nevadomski Berdan - a shining example of how successful you can be if you take the plunge and accept a work assignment abroad.
Featured Book: Get Ahead By Going Abroad - which Stacie co-authored with Perry Yeatman. We deliberately opted for the double-feature for Stacie in the same month, because honestly, their book is great - full of real-life examples, quotes and feedback from many women abroad - and it made sense to keep the two features together, rather than separate them into two different months, so that the interview responses complemented each other.
1st Special Feature: Women in Transition - contributed by Dhyan Summers MA, Licensed Psychotherapist - an American Expat Woman in India. If you are trying to cope with various changes in your life, you may find Dhyan's discussion about N.K. Schlossberg's "4 'S' System" for coping with transition to be just what you need.
2nd Special Feature: Special Needs Children... What To Know Before You Go - contributed by Rebecca Grappo, M.Ed, C.E.P. - an American Expat Woman in Oman. Rebecca is an International Educational Consultant who has worked with hundreds of globally-mobile families in both private practice and as the former Education and Youth officer for the U.S. Department of State. Her feature is a great read if you have special needs children and are about to move to a new expat location. If you know of someone else in this situation, please on-forward this article to them, as anyone faced with this challenge could benefit from Rebecca's advice.
