How to transition your mindset as a professional immigrant | ft. Nkechi Nwafor-Robinson
Many immigrants move to a new country with a mindset of 'starting over'.

With the right mindset, you can overcome anything, even the scariness of a new country. Join us on Sept 13th at 1pm ET to learn just how.
