She studied architecture and interior design in London, pivoted to real estate during the 2008 crash, moved to Arizona for graduate school and met the man she would marry. She became a stay-at-home mom and spent nine years caught between guilt about not working and guilt about not being with her kids enough.</p><p><br></p><p>When the marriage ended, Alexia had no professional track record in the United States, two children under eight and a divorce she didn’t see coming. She had to figure out bills, careers and identity all at once. In this conversation, she talks about what starting over actually looks like when you’ve done it three times in three countries, why she chose not to be the victim of her own story and what her kids were watching the whole time.</p><p><br></p><p>Executive Producer: Sara Glassman</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Follow At the Brink: </strong>Instagram @at.the.brink.media&nbsp;|&nbsp;YouTube @AtTheBrinkPodcast</p><p><strong>Follow Alexia: </strong>Instagram @realestate.by.alexia&nbsp;|&nbsp;Website: alexiabertsatos.com</p><p>www.atthebrinkmedia.com&nbsp;|&nbsp;hello@atthebrinkmedia.com</p>","author_name":"Erica Brinker"}
