Her background is in digital marketing and business development, which she ultimately evolved into a business of her own as a certified coach. By way of building her reputation as an expert in her field, coaching international women, she piloted a fascinating study, interviewing 30, expat-women principle-breadwinners, resulting in Kate designating 4 types of “Thriving Female Expats.” In this interview, she talks about the '4 types' and an additional study she conducted, exploring the topics, employability when moving abroad, and re-entering the workforce after a career break of 5-plus years.
