You want to relocate abroad, but one question keeps coming up: how will I support myself if I leave my job?

In this episode of The Bougie Expat Podcast, Sable breaks down three practical exit paths for women over 40 who want to leave corporate, relocate, and create income that supports their next chapter.

Sable shares how to use your existing skills in a new way, build a business before you move, or create a hybrid exit plan while still working full-time. She explains why your exit strategy should begin before you land in your new country, why money needs to be part of your relocation plan from the start, and how your corporate experience can become the foundation for consulting, remote work, fractional leadership, coaching, or entrepreneurship.
