Description

Ep 253: In this episode, Allison and Ceara share recent life updates. Ceara is preparing for a four part back to back trip, both work and pleasure. She will be going to the Dominican Republic for a hotel collaboration, then she’s off to Saudi Arabia for a production, then a short solo trip in Qatar, and finally visiting her brother in Thailand. 

Allison reflects on the highs and lows of operating a business remotely. Even though she enjoys the flexibility, she misses getting to do things in person like talk to customers, merchandise, decorate and have something to leave the house for daily. These feelings have led her to consider opening a community-based business here in The Netherlands to keep their visa. 


TAKEAWAYS:

  • Ceara is planning a four part trip from the Dominican Republic to Saudi Arabia. 
  • Ceara booked her first business class ticket with points.
  • Maximizing points can lead to luxurious travel experiences.
  • Allison misses going to her store on a daily basis. 
  • Allison explores ideas around opening a business in The Netherlands.
  • The architecture in Europe allows for aesthetic fashion photography.
  • Allison is cleared with the hospital and midwives to have a home birth.
