    • Entrepreneurship

🌍 In this week's episode of "The Immigrant Entrepreneurs" podcast, host Ali Manouchehri sits down with the remarkably ambitious Katarina Polonska. With a master's degree from the prestigious University of Oxford and senior roles at innovative companies like MindGym and BetterUp under her belt, Katarina's story is nothing short of inspirational. However, her journey hasn't been without its challenges, particularly in the realm of dating and relationships.

🇬🇧 Katarina opens up about her diverse living and working experiences across six different countries, shedding light on her time in the Northern part of England during the 90s. As an Eastern European immigrant, she faced unwelcome attitudes, providing a stark view into the difficulties immigrants often encounter in new environments. Her reflections offer a deep dive into the societal changes over the decades and the evolving perceptions of immigrants.

🌆 The conversation then shifts to Katarina's adventurous move to Dubai, followed by her life in Canada, before eventually making her way back to the UK. Each country brought its own set of challenges and learning experiences, contributing to Katarina's rich tapestry of life stories. Her narrative is a testament to the resilience and adaptability required to thrive in new and often unfamiliar territories.

🇺🇦 A particularly poignant part of the episode is when Katarina shares the emotional turmoil of having her father in Ukraine when the Russian-Ukrainian war began. Her personal account adds a human face to the often distant news headlines, highlighting the deep personal impacts of geopolitical conflicts on individuals and their families.

🍾 Lastly, Katarina discusses her entrepreneurial journey, from building a Champagne and Wine company in Spain to her transformative work as a relationship coach for CEOs and executives. Her ability to pivot and find success in varied fields exemplifies the spirit of innovation and perseverance that defines the best of immigrant entrepreneurship.

This week's episode of "The Immigrant Entrepreneurs" is a profound exploration of the immigrant experience, showcasing the blend of professional achievement and personal resilience that defines Katarina Polonska's life.
