Immigrating as a dependent and figuring yourself out with Laura Peruchi

 

When Laura Peruchi suggested her then boyfriend get a job in New York she was excited about the possibility of living abroad. What she didn’t count on was that immigrating as a dependent wouldn’t allow her to work for several years. Originally a journalist from Brazil, Laura became a content creator to “keep busy” during the years she couldn’t work.

When she finally obtained her Green Card, Laura was confronted with an even more overwhelming thought: what do you want to do now? After years of just keeping busy, answering that question proved to be a challenge. One that Laura answered by creating the Transplants podcast, where she interviews women who have immigrated to different parts of the world.
