• 116 Healthcare in China

  In today’s episode I am talking about my experience with Healthcare in China. From the moment I arrived and needed health assessment for work permit , to standard Women’s care for perimenopause symptoms. Needless to say I had the best experience I ever had with the healthcare.I  mentioned in this episode:1. French Concession - popular place for old Shanghai vibes, little cafes and shops , famous Wukang building and Anfu road; try Tokyo Matcha - delicious ice creams and match drink with guava Apoli bakery 2. Jiahui International Hospital - private healthcare can be covered by insurance such as CIGNA or out of your own pocket ; I strongly recommend to have breast ultrasound to check if everything is ok before any hormonal treatments; Let me know your thoughts ; drop me an email!Support the showwww.monikamateja.comwww.instagram.com/xomonimateja [email protected]://www.buzzsprout.com/1751983/support

• 115 What Shanghai is Teaching Me About Myself

  I came here for work. It was a big decision. I’m a mother, and my family is back in the UK. I knew this assignment would stretch me professionally—but I didn’t realize how much it would stretch me emotionally too. The silence teaches me who I am without others aroundThe city teaches me to let go of control. Distance teaches me what home really means.Work teaches me purpose—but so does stillness.Maybe you’ve made a hard choice too. Maybe you’re in a city where you don’t fully belong—or a job that’s stretching you thin. I just want to say: you’re not alone. There’s meaning in the in-between. There’s growth in discomfort.Support the showwww.monikamateja.comwww.instagram.com/xomonimateja [email protected]://www.buzzsprout.com/1751983/support
