The feeling of being from everywhere and nowhere with Ksenia Votinova-Arnaud

In this episode, I talk with Ksenia Votinova-Arnaud, a tech entrepreneur, business coach, and what she describes as a citizen of the world. Ksenia shares her journey of living and building her life across multiple countries, reflecting on the complex feelings of belonging, identity, and home that come with migration and constant movement. We explore the feeling of being from everywhere and nowhere at the same time, and how certain experiences become what Ksenia calls “mental photographs”, core moments of joy that shape who we are and how we see the world. Our conversation also touches on the values that guide her life decisions, the importance of community when starting again in new places, and the tools that help us adapt to different environments while staying connected to ourselves. This episode is also a reflection on a powerful realization: that home is not always a place, but a feeling we learn to cultivate within ourselves. 🎧 Listen, share, and let me know what part resonated with you. 📩 Do you have a story or topic you’d like us to explore?
