She encouraged prospective relocators to also come with enough money to keep themselves afloat while building a client base or securing employment, rather than arriving and expecting immediate income.

For those who already had a loyal clientele back home, she suggested that a gradual approach to establishing a business after arrival was entirely possible.

She also addressed the specific concerns facing single parents, urging them to sort out the fundamentals before travelling.

Planning ahead for accommodation, day-to-day living costs, and childcare arrangements for any child coming along was her core message for that group.
