As an American female lawyer in faraway lands, Jamie Bowman has had her share of adventures… and close calls.  In this episode she shares some of those adventures – just enough to leave you wanting more.  Oh! You can do that by buying her book “Bike Riding in Kabul”!

Jamie’s life hasn’t all been work, though – she tells us about her expedition to El Camino De Santiago in Spain… a spiritual journey, no matter who you are or what your beliefs and about walking the Coast to Coast in England.

And if you ever wondered how to have a relationship with another international worker… Jamie describes it as “ping-ponging”.

Back to the book… while Jamie recounts her stories, each story will leave you with a lesson learned…

Oh, and yes, we blow the female horn!

Agnes Knowles Podcaster

I’ve probably done most of the things you expect a woman my age to have done: married and divorced; three children; variety of jobs over the years including a couple of home-based businesses and, finally, a pretty good career; gave up that career (and home and life) to move and take care of a dementing mother; adult daughter moved back home with a baby; financial struggles; sucker-punched by the post-2007 economy. You tell a similar story.

My podcast is for Boomer Women. A variety of subjects, a variety of viewpoints... and open to suggestions if I'm not covering a topic you want to hear about.
