A truly unforgettable day!

We were all in awe of the 13 finalists who gave powerful and thought-provoking speeches in front of a packed audience at Barcelona's CaixaForum.

MumAbroad is very proud to be part of 4Voices and its flagship public speaking competition which gives a platform to teenagers who want to be heard - tomorrow's changemakers.

Huge congratulations to Audrey Nagel, this year's winner. Audrey is a current student at The British School of Barcelona (and formerly attended The Olive Tree School). She captivated the audience from start to finish with her speech 'Risk: the only path to success', challenging the traditional messages that society defines success as.

Congratulations too to runner-up Jerome Ow Hidalgo from St Peter's School and Lucas Juez Zúñiga of Cambridge School who was awarded third place.

We couldn’t have done it without a whole host of people: partners Qustodio, Metropolitan Magazine and GET Global English Track, Educate to Communicate and FiG Communications, our judges and coaches. Special thanks also to Nick Bolger of ICON INTERNATIONAL and Tom Maidment.

Moving to another country can be exciting, fun, re

Moving to another country can be exciting, fun, refreshing and liberating but also can be daunting and overwhelming. There’s one thing that every mum agrees on - things get easier when you find your tribe.

But how do you do that? Here are some ‘tribe hunting’ spots from us 👇.

👉 IN A PRENATAL COURSE - having a baby away from the comforts of our homeland, extended family and in another language can be daunting. The key to getting through this is to find women who are at the same stage of life as you and a pre-natal course is a good place to start.

👉 MUM AND BABY GROUPS - the same as the above point… find women who know what you are going through and can support you. It will help you navigate life as a parent abroad enormously.

👉 AT THE SCHOOL GATE - meeting and connecting with parents at the school gate means they will most likely be local to you, which is helpful for the ‘coffee stop’ friendships.

👉 BUSINESS NETWORKING - it’s not all about family life so use networking events to find women who have some focus outside of family life.

👉 FACEBOOK GROUPS - every town and city has Facebook groups with a huge amount of helpful information. Put word out in a group on your stage in life and what you are looking for in friendship. Your expat soulmate could be right there waiting. And if not, there will be recommendations ready to help.

👉 MEETUPS - there are various events and meetups happening all the time with the aim of connecting people for connecting or connecting with interests in mind e.g. photography classes, ceramics workshops, and language classes.

👉 PLAYGROUNDS - it’s where all parents hang out all the time, even though we would rather be having a beer in a nice bar. We’ve made many a friendship from playground hangouts.

👉 BE ACTIVE - there are fitness classes everywhere you go. Join one… you’ll get fitter and potentially make a new mate.

The key to making any of the above happen it putting yourself out there. It’s hard buuuuuut, we are all in the same boat, looking for connection, friendship and a tribe.

Have we missed anything? Let us know where and how you have found your tribe?

"My journey into motherhood wasn’t what I expect

"My journey into motherhood wasn’t what I expected. I felt lonely and anxious and experienced so many draining emotions that made me feel guilty and ashamed for not living a blissful life with my newborn."

Does that sound familiar?

The areas she works with include:

🤱 postpartum anxiety & stress

🤱 postpartum PTSD from a traumatic birth

🤱 perinatal loss

🤱 fertility challenges

🤱 fear of childbirth

🤱 breastfeeding difficulties

🤱 birth of a premature baby or baby in the NICU

🤱 challenges of being a stay-home parent or returning to work

🤱 intrusive thoughts and negative self-talk

Alicia understands firsthand the challenges of becoming a mother away from home and family. For the past 13 years, she’s lived in London, Amsterdam, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Her experience raising children in another country while managing her career brings a unique perspective on addressing women’s mental health before and after childbirth.

On Tuesday last week we went to Marbella for a conference… hosted by women, for women! Perfectly timed for International Women’s Day.

It was to attend the #MakeItHappen conference hosted by Costa Women. This is an amazing community for women, living in, or thinking about relocating to Spain.

We learnt 6 things. First being that women are amazing. Although, let’s face it, we knew that. Here’s the 5 others…

1️⃣ When a group of women come together connection, collaboration and creativity stand out above anything else.

2️⃣ That we need to cut the inner critic and remind ourselves of everything we have achieved.

3️⃣ To see the bigger picture of where we want to go and each day take a step to get there.

4️⃣ That we must keep showing up - you never know when you are going to reap the rewards.

5️⃣ “Be yourself because everyone else is taken”

Thanks so much to Costa Women and all those who made it happen. Until next year!

Tell us why you think women are amazing. Comment below 👇

It's school decision time here in Spain! 👩‍🏫🎒🚸

By now we're sure you have a good feel of what you want for your child.

But as you're about to make, what feels like, the biggest decision of your life, we thought you may like a little last minute help.

SAVE this post now and use it for when you're having that last chat with your partner, mate, family, or even just yourself... in making sure you've got your school decision right.

The application dates vary throughout Spain. But here in Barcelona it starts from today. You’ll need to check individual autonomous community websites for dates of other regions.

And if you are still in doubt and feel you need some further support in making that decision then there is help at hand. Sinead @sinead.madridschools and Anya @mybcnschool are two professionals in this field and can help this whole process feel much less daunting.
