"The more each day passes now, the more I realise just how much I need to align my life with my VMP (Vision, Mission, Purpose). This time is a very exciting one for me. I am no longer as 'stuck' as I was when we first began our sessions, and I can visibly see my life moving more towards how I would like it to be everyday. I feel new opportunities and ideas flowing to me everyday, and I can distinctly feel I have so much more courage to live my life MY way, than I did a few months ago. I would like to thank you for that. The support and resources you have given to me have been the major reason for many of the shifts I have made. I can't wait to be able to give that gift back to others!"
Layla S., Qatar
" I wanted to tell you first, that I love your book! I have read it cover to cover, and as a traveler myself, I feel such a connection with the personal stories in "A Global Citizen's Perspective….it is so helpful and refreshing to see a career guide for adventurous folks like ourselves! I didn't think I would ever find a career counseling book that would be so tailored to my goals and desires."
Desha P., USA
"After 4 months of coaching, I have already noticed great changes and progress in how I live my life! As a fellow expat, I feel you truly understand the problems and challenges
that I face…."
Anne M., Germany

- Volunteer Locally
FAWCO, www.fawco.org
The Federation of American Women's Clubs Overseas One of the best ways to get involved and use your skills is to join an American Women's Club and volunteer for any number of fun positions, like president, treasurer, sales and marketing assistant, gala coordinator or webmaster. Most American Women's Clubs overseas are members of FAWCO, an international network of 74 independent clubs with a combined membership of over 17,000 women in 33 countries worldwide. It serves as a support network for American women living and working abroad and is particularly active in the fields of U.S. citizens' concerns, education, environmental protection, and women's and children's rights. In addition, each individual American Women's Club in cities around the world, such as the American Women's Club of Dusseldorf, www.awcduesseldorf.org, where I am a member, offers a plethora of fun activities from baby groups and language lessons to running groups and networking evenings, as well as continuing education scholarships for adults and students. Many volunteer positions are available. To find the local American Women's Club in your city, see www.fawco.org.
