The Story

We have a fair number of migrant women in our community. (I am one myself: I migrated from Singapore.) Let's talk about what it's like to: * Belong somewhere + nowhere * Start over in a new environment * Make friends in a new country * Lose our support network * Lose momentum in our career * Feel conflicted when we 'go home' * Change career after 40 / having kids * Wonder if we made the wrong decision * Lose the pay / prestige we used to enjoy * Help our kids fit into a different education system * Adapt to a new language, culture, accent This is a supportive and non-judgmental space to share experiences, exchange useful resources, listen with empathy, and talk about the things only migrants will understand and relate to.
