The International School of Life- We will help you to flourish abroad!

“We believe that in the 21st century business is about people and relationships. To be successful we need a good network, especially when living abroad. We therefore have decided to create the International School of Life Member Club. This will run every Thursday giving you access to exclusive sessions and opportunities, as well as the ability to collaborate and network with its members. The Club will be a place where people will share a common purpose to help each other to grow”.
Angelina Piechowska & Bonny Martin Co-founders of The International School of Life

The ISL Member Club is an online international meeting platform dedicated to those (men and women) living abroad and who want to make money doing something they love. It is about networking from the comfort of your own home.
The ISL Member Club is not a platform for coaching or lectures where experts tell you how to manage your life. It is about encouraging its members to talk about themselves and what they do whilst also listening to others.

    #20 Interview with Karina Lagarrigue - Clinical psychologist helping expatriated, cross-cultural and frequent travelling couples and families to THRIVE. Early-stage PhD in Sensory Processing Sensitivity and expat motherhood (recorded February 2022)
    Karina has moved around the world since she was only 15 days old. Hypersensitive and hyperempathetic from birth, passionate about communication and interculturality, Karina dedicates her time to studying and accompanying expatriation processes, transitions to international motherhood and fatherhood, and to understanding the interpersonal adaptation processes that occur between couples in all these contexts.

    Karina answered a few questions for us and gave us some great suggestions:

    What is unique for you in the experience of being an expat?
    If you could turn back the time, would you take the same decisions?
    Do you think that certain people have a personality or predisposition to be more able to leave their native country and move abroad than others? To easily find themselves again somewhere else?
    Which advice would you give to busy expat working mums, who may have lost the support of their family network once they moved abroad to help them build a new life?
    What are the different phases of settling abroad? Are there any?
    How can we support our kids during our ‘expat’ journey?

    Bogdan shared with us some interesting facts about his life & work!
    1.Bogdan you are currently based in Amsterdam, but originally come from the Czech Republic. As you probably know our audience is made of people from all over the world, and we are all curious to know how you built your life abroad? What was fascinating, and what was challenging?

    2.You focus on applying neuro-psychology to different learning models, emphasising on the human sensorimotor, cognitive, and affective response to stimuli. Can you tell us more about this because it sounds very different to the ‘old fashion’ education model where you are sitting in front of manuals and memorising everything.

    3.Can we jump into the future, and can you give us some suggestions as to what kind of skills we have to look for to learn more, to be more adaptable?

    4.How can we apply neuroscience in our daily life if we are not experts, but we want to improve our learning process, how can we start?

    5.What is your mission Bogdan? I know that you designed an online experience, and you gave the money to the British Red Cross?

    6.What is a good description of “Transformation Leader”?

    7.How can we learn online and not be overwhelmed? How to be engaged online without the Zoom or Teams Fatigue?
