Ep. 36 The Healthiest Pet Diet with Micol Romano
You may or may not know this, but I am totally obsessed with my dog Luna. She’s my 3.5-year-old rescue and when I picked her up from the shelter, I immediately knew that the dry food or canned food diet that I was recommended she eat, was not going to make the cut for me. After all, I eat mostly plant-based food and I know that nutrition is one of the most important aspects of our health. Doing the math I knew, that Luna, as a living organism, being a dog and having 99% wolf DNA would not thrive eating factory-produced processed food. It was basic, natural math for me. I just couldn’t feed her that.  So the diet we decided to feed her is home-cooked meals. We buy her organic meat and cook it with veggies, and add vitamins and minerals to help her thrive. Although she seems to love her diet, in the back of my mind I always knew, that I would eventually switch her to a raw food diet, having done my research and knowing that it’s the healthiest option for her. But the learning curve is steep and something about the raw food diet always intimidated me. I had a lot of questions about it.  This is why I was so thrilled to meet my guest on today’s show, Micol Romano. Micol is an entrepreneur who specializes in helping dog and cat owners transition their animals to a natural, raw diet and integrate holistic practices in their pet's health. She’s a trained osteopath and homeopath and went to a veterinary school specializing in animal nutrition. She eventually decided to suspend her studies for different opportunities in life. Her greatest moments are those spent with her animals in the wild outdoors. Micol also has a very rich immigrant background, having spent her childhood in Italy speaking a mix of Italian and German, moving to the US and later to Germany.  On today’s show, Micol discussed the difficulties with the transition period when speaking different languages, looking at nature for best practices, the problem with dry and wet food diet for dogs, how to start your pet on a raw food diet, how to balance a raw food diet, the best thing for cancer prevention in dogs, how to vary the raw food diet and how to batch prepare your dogs food.  Don't forget to rate us, review, subscribe, and follow us so that you always know when a new episode is out!  For today's show notes head to this link:  https://lenalivinsky.com/micolromano/ If you want to join a free community of global movers and shakers, click on the link below:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/accentedworldpodcast/ Send me a message on DM to let me know what you think about the show, or to inquire about being a guest!  https://www.instagram.com/accentedworldpodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/lena.livinsky/

Ep. 35 How to Build a Community of Like-Minded People with Julia Minkowski
When I first moved to the United States, I was desperate to find my community, to find a group of friends who would accept me for who I was and who I could spend time with. That’s something that a lot of immigrants struggle with, moving to a brand new country and leaving behind their family and friends. My guest on today’s show knows all about building communities of like-minded people. Julia Minkowski is a Fraud and Risk Management expert, innovator, startup advisor, community organizer, mentor, and speaker. That is a lot of hats that she wears, but trust me she’s amazing at wearing every single one of them. Julia is the co-founder of the Russian Speaking Women in Tech Silicon Valley community that accounts for nearly 3,200 talented local women in technology. If you think about it her group is very specific, it’s for women, who speak Russian and work in tech. But thanks to her incredible community-building skills, she grew it to a whopping 3200 members. Now that’s impressive. Not only is she an incredibly inspiring woman when it comes to her business achievements, she also moved alone to Israel at the age of 17 and rode 500 miles by bike in Thailand, Laos, and Canada. I mean, how brave is that? On today’s show, Julia spoke about building communities and shared advice on how to build a community of like-minded individuals, how to live according to your cycle, the importance of sleep, and the lean startup methodology. Make sure to tune in to hear her incredible story!  Hey, I wanted to remind you to subscribe to our show, leave us a review, preferably a 5 star and let me know how are you liking this show.

Ep. 34 The Benefits of Learning New Languages with Olga Prepodobnaya
CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE PRONUNCIATION MASTERCLASS with LENA I am super excited for today’s guest because I was finally able to chat with an English as a second Language teacher. Olga Prepodobnaya, a Russian ex-pat who teaches in Italy, was the perfect person to discuss learning English with. Thanks to her extensive experience, wonderful personality and willingness to discuss the pros and the cons of learning new languages, our chat was filled with wisdom nuggets for anyone interested in this topic. Her idea of teaching is based on the principle of “eclecticism”: all the students are different in objectives, learning styles, age, and energy levels, and it is the teacher’s aim to define their needs and expose their language potential making use of various techniques and approaches. I couldn’t agree with her more.  I wanted to add that Olga is not only an English and Russian speaker, she also taught herself Polish, Italian, and Japanese. I mean, she’s totally brilliant.  On today’s show we discuss how to learn languages by yourself, the pros and cons of living in new countries, the importance of imitation and language immersion, how Olga modified her accent by listening to Whitney Houston and Aerosmith when she was 5 years old, and advice for adults learning English.  Before we tune into my chat with Olga, please make sure you’ve subscribed to the show anywhere you’re listening so each week a new episode comes out, you can get a neat little notification on your phone and click to listen. Also, if you are enjoying the show, please leave us a 5-star rating, these kinds of reviews go a long way for our show, and can help us grow. Thanks again for tuning in!

Ep. 31 How to Create an Authentic Clothing Brand with Tashika Nickle
Starting a clothing brand is not an easy task to handle. There is so much detail, planning, production, and honestly hard work that goes into creating a successful brand. My guest on today’s show, Ms. Tashika Nickle, the founder, and CEO of Zodi-Hacks Apparel, created her brand in New York City in March of 2020, right at the beginning of the quarantine. It is a 100% black-owned and woman-owned company. Tashika is an avid astrology lover and that's what propelled her idea forward. She became inspired to start her own brand after being frustrated over not being able to find anything stylish enough to represent her zodiac sign, the Taurus (which by the way she’s such Taurus, and I couldn’t love her more for it) Nothing she found spoke to her natural knack for all things chic and stylish. Disappointed and fueled with the creative juices that she didn't even know she possessed at the time, she forged ahead, and that’s how Zodi-Hacks Apparel was born. Tashika had sharp business instincts since she was a teenager and she graduated in 2012 with a bachelor’s degree in business management from Adelphi University. Her brand specializes in comfortable streetwear with a sleek zodiac flair. It is a safe haven for zodiac enthusiasts. The brand celebrates your desire to Embrace the real you! On today’s show, Tashika discusses how her business degree prepared her to run a successful business, the evolution of her clothing brand, the importance of finding your niche in business, how to keep costumers buying from your business, advice for someone wanting to start a clothing business and how zodiac signs influence our lives. I can’t wait for you to meet Tashika, by the way we used to waitress together at T.G.I. Friday’s what feels like a lifetime ago, don’t worry we totally spill the beans on that experience on the show. So here is my dear friend and CEO boss, Ms. Tashika Nickle.

Ep. 27 Turning Disability into Opportunity with Michelle Kuei
"I tell people, I am not here to fix you and I can’t fix you because I don’t believe that you are broken. What I can do is to help you see what you’re not seeing, while feeling broken. That's what we need to focus on, the present moment. Not the past, not the future, right here, right now. "- Michelle Kuei It’s not every day that a guests’ story is so inspiring it brings you to tears. Well, that’s exactly what happened when I spoke to Michelle Kuei, my guest on today’s show.  Michelle is a certified confidence & leadership coach who helps negative self-talkers believe in their talents to reach their full potential in personal and professional life. She was only 11-years-old, living in rural Taiwan when a car running a red light completely altered her life’s trajectory. Her road to recovery was extremely long and painful and she needed to learn how to live with a disability. Although very difficult, her new reality didn’t stop her from pursuing unbelievable and seemingly impossible goals such as hiking Machu Picchu. Michelle’s speaking career began in 2018, soon after she founded her own coaching company. She is the author of the new memoir, Perfectly Normal, an immigrant’s story of making it in America. Michelle lives in Los Angeles with a short-haired brown tabby cat named Buster. If you’re looking for her, the odds are good you’ll find her at the gym.  In today’s episode, Michelle shares how to gain clarity when you feel stuck, the law of being, how to use bravery to discover a way of living true to yourself, living a life with a disability, overcoming your fears, and why only you know what’s best for you.

Ep. 23 Helping Expat Women Thrive in Life, Career and Business
Do you remember the day when you moved to a new place? How about moved to a new country? I bet it wasn’t easy to settle down, figure out the new culture, make new friends, or find a job. That happens to a lot of immigrants moving abroad, especially women. It can be a very lonely journey, leaving behind the place you used to call home. Most immigrants have to restart their lives when they do. It’s very hard, especially if they don’t speak the language. My guest today, Nyna Caputi, also had a difficult time finding her community when she first moved to the US from India. It was so hard for her in fact, that she started her business the Expat woman, hoping to create a community. She ended up creating a social enterprise that helps to inspire, connect, and empower immigrant and native-born women across the globe through online and offline events, networking opportunities, and valuable resources and content. With over 12,000 members, they have hosted over 250 workshops, conferences, hackathons, webinars, career fairs, and networking events. On top of that, Nyna is a filmmaker, blogger, advocate, and speaker on gender violence, startups, leadership, cross-cultural skills, diversity, and expat life. She is also the winner of the ‘Global Influencer 2019’ award from Women Empowerment Awards North America. In today’s episode, Nyna shares about her struggles finding a community when she moved to the United States, what inspired her to find the Expat Woman, how she scaled her business to make 6 figures, her advice for new entrepreneurs, and her 3 “P” mantra.

Amy’s energy is captivating and her mission to share inspiring profiles of phenomenal women is incredibly powerful. Amy created the project 52 Phenomenal Women, to highlight the phenomenal women in our communities.

Ep.19 Leaving a Successful Career to Embrace Who You Are with Fadia Abdouni
My guest on the show today is Fadia Abdouni. She’s a first-generation Brazilian, and a daughter to Lebanese immigrants. After finishing dental school training in Brazil, she moved to the US to specialize in oral and maxillofacial surgery. She decided on her career pretty early in life but never imagined it wouldn’t be a career she retired with.  After 12 years of work as an oral surgeon, Fadia felt like the work she was doing wasn’t aligned with her soul. She then made a very scary but liberating decision to become a professional coach, an energy worker, and a meditation teacher. She has always known she was extremely gifted in energy work, but she never dared to pursue this rather unusual career when she was younger.  Luckily she listened to her true calling and could not be happier about the changes she has made. Her story is incredibly inspiring, especially to those who know that the career they have chosen no longer aligns with them, but are afraid to take the scary first step to bring the necessary change. Well don’t worry, Fadia will be your inspiration. Tune in now to hear her incredible story.  ACCENTED WORLD FB COMMUNITY:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/accentedworldpodcast/ ACCENTED WORLD INSTAGRAM:  https://www.instagram.com/accentedworldpodcast/ ACCENTED WORLD SHOW NOTES:  https://lenalivinsky.com/fadiaabdouni/
