  How First-Generation Immigrants Can Build Careers Abroad With Confidence 16.09.2026 25min

  Special "Business Revenue Leak Checklist" offer free at http://www.mrse.co/leak.What does it take for first-generation immigrants to build thriving careers in a new country? Ragda Tabet shares how she helps expat professionals overcome fear, find visibility, and stop blending in. Learn why owning your unique identity is the key to standing out abroad.Guest Bio:Ragda Tabet is the founder of Shift to Strategic and a Career Strategist who helps immigrant and first-generation women in corporate get visible, get valued, and stop feeling “lucky to be here.”Her story starts in Dubai, where she was born and raised as a first-generation immigrant. Over nine years at AXA, one of the world’s largest insurers, she climbed from customer service agent to corporate communications manager — learning firsthand that hard work alone doesn’t get you seen. It was a near-layoff experience, where her own manager told her “Raghda, they don’t know you,” that taught her the most important career lesson she carries today: performance without visibility is invisibility.In her thirties, Ragda moved to Sweden as a trailing partner with no network, no local language, and no plan other than to start over. She learned Swedish from scratch, became a mother of two, went back to school, and re-entered the workforce in a country where trust and relationships come before credentials. When she finally landed a role that checked every box — flexible, stable, well-paid — she left it after four months because she recognized a pattern: the system wasn’t going to make space for someone like her.That decision led her to build Shift to Strategic, where she now works 1:1 with immigrant and first-generation women who are talented, hardworking, and invisible at work — not because they aren’t enough, but because their fears are keeping them from the version of themselves they’re meant to be.Ragda has been featured on Swedish National Radio, where she almost turned down the opportunity because of her accent — then went on air anyway, because she decided her voice mattered more than sounding perfect. That moment captures everything she stands for: you don’t need to be flawless to be seen. You need to be heard.Connect with Ragda TabeteLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ragda-tabet/Resources or websites mentioned in this episode:MiraseeCredits:Host: Meredith EisenbergEditor: Marvin Del RosarioExecutive Producer: Danny InyTo catch the great episodes coming up on Making It, please follow us on Mirasee FM's YouTube channel or your favorite podcast player.

  From Burnout to Business: Building Success Through Inner Alignment 11.09.2026 35min

  Special "Business Revenue Leak Checklist" offer free at http://www.mrse.co/leak.What happens when burnout becomes your breakthrough? Misha Sramova shares her journey from corporate crisis to building a heart-led business focused on inner alignment. She and Michi Lantz explore visibility, scaling with values, and why real time freedom means working in rhythm with yourself.Guest Bio: Misha Sramova has one of those backgrounds that makes you look twice. She spent five years as a Consulting Manager and Mentor at Deloitte, one of the Big Four, leading tech and organizational transformations for global companies across the world. The work was high-stakes, international, and impressive on paper. Behind the scenes? Burnout, anxiety, and insomnia were quietly running the show.When traditional approaches couldn't reach the deeper layers, Misha turned to energy healing, sound, and somatic work and discovered a completely different relationship with success. One that didn't require hustle to sustain.Today, she's a Success Catalyst, award-winning international speaker, and retreat host working with conscious, ambitious women who have achieved the external markers of success but still feel energetically depleted, misaligned, or unable to grow in a way that actually feels good. Her work blends subconscious reprogramming, nervous system regulation, and energy work with the kind of grounded strategic thinking she honed in consulting because real transformation needs both.Over the past eight years, Misha has guided women across the globe through online programs, group containers, immersive retreats, and intimate 1:1 experiences helping them stop chasing success and start embodying it. She has spoken at stages including Mindvalley, Deloitte, Femme Palette, and the Natural High Healing Festival, and leads the Divine Era - a global community for women stepping into soul-led power and effortless wealth.Her belief is simple: when a woman is energetically aligned, everything changes her business, her relationships, her sense of self. Success stops being something to earn and starts being something she is.Connect with Misha SramovaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelasramova/ Website: https://mishaenergycoach.comResources or websites mentioned in this episode:MiraseeCredits:Host: Michi LantzEditor: Marvin Del RosarioExecutive Producer: Danny InyTo catch the great episodes coming up on Making It, please follow us on Mirasee FM's YouTube channel or your favorite podcast player.
