Part Two of a two-part interview: Kasia has felt like a “foreigner” in all the countries she has lived (US, Japan, Poland, and Italy) - but that has become her superpower in terms of empathy toward others and having a global mindset.

Currently, she is working hard to connect Japanese/English-speaking job seekers and globally-minded companies in the US through her business, www.ikigaiconnections.com.

In this second part of a two-part interview, Kasia talks about the role of empathy in bridging cultures, how you can help bridge cultural gaps in a business situation even if your language skills aren’t perfect, and the importance of keeping a learner’s mindset.
