21 - Shireen - when community is doing it for community there is such a different feeling to it"

Welcome to episode 21 of the humans inside the pods. For this very last epissode of 2020, I m really excited to introduce Shireen Langan! She is a radio host, a podcast pro and the cofounder of The World Media Lab.  She is also my very first guest who is not a current or former K9er!  Last year she spent 4 months at  Haven Coliving in L.A , a purpose driven wellness coliving community, home for 96 people. I was so grateful that she agreed to share her story on the podcast and that we ended up having such a relaxed and open conversation despite not knowing each other at all. Shireen shares her experience as an expat arriving in a new country, doing her best to meet people and create a sense of home for herself.  She tells us about her two different homes while staying in the States, first in a family as a rbnb guest, and then as a member of the Haven community. We talk privacy, built environment, community management, the ups and downs of living with many others, the little challenges and great learnings and of course, we wonder, what makes a home?  If you want to know more about Shireen and what she is doing now you can check out her work at The World Media Lab , her personal website, and follow her on Instagram.  if you are curious about Haven Coliving, check out their website and instagram as well.
