Melanie Barr: [00:01:59] Thank you so much for joining me today Juanita. You are an author, attorney and actress. Please share with us more about who you are. [00:02:07][7.6]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:02:08] I'm a wife, a mom of two. My husband and I have been married for 17 years. I'm originally from the U.S., from Chattanooga, Tennessee. I started my ex-pat journey and living abroad about two years ago. I'm also a filmmaker. I call myself a recovering attorney, turned intern filmmaker. And yeah, I have just been fortunate enough to have some really cool experiences in pursuing things that are not only fulfilling, but hopefully inspiring and enriching for other people as well. [00:03:00][52.0]

Melanie Barr: [00:03:01] It was so inspiring to read about you and now to get to know you. You are also an author and you wrote a book series. Can you share with us about your series and the inspiration behind it? [00:03:12][10.3]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:03:13] Sure, I actually I wrote three inspirational books for women. Two of them are faith-based. Well, really, all of them are faith-based. I'm a person of faith. I don't really see a spiritual person, but a person of faith my back, my background is Christianity. My parents raised me in the church. My mother has been a minister of music since she was nine. My father is a pastor. I say I was raised under the organ. I grew up in church my whole life. The first book that I wrote was called Winning with Christ. The second book was called Beauty for Ashes, which was actually a collection of testimonies from women all over the world about how God had brought them through difficult situations. And the last one was called Fabulous, Faithful and Free, which is really non-denominational, sort of secular. I don't really reference scripture, but the basic core of who you are, it's sort of it comes through. And then I have a seven-part children's series called The Wonderfully Made Panels, and it is a multi-cultural, faith-based children's series because when raising my kids, I was trying to find books that were multicultural, or at least it had characters that kind of looked like them because I think it's so important for kids to see things that look like them. And I like if I was VeggieTales, which I loved. But kids aren't vegetables so right that I thought about it, Well, how can I make a series that all children can see themselves in the characters. It can help open the door for certain topics for parents, we talk about everything from anti-bullying to fear and a scripture base. But there are Latina kids or Asian kids, African American kids, so there are a plethora of different characters. I mean, the first two after my children. So there's kind Kinsley that teaches kids about kindness towards others. There's a Courageous Kenan and Confidante Kenan, and so that's based on second Timothy 210. The God has given us this kind of scared about whatever Nick is based on a true story. And then the other one called Wonderfully May one to which is really my story growing up about being bullied and having braces and glasses and being in the marching band and just being a little bit different from everyone else. And it's about anti-bullying, but also just self-acceptance. So that's all the pen to paper that I've put this far. I am working on my next book, which will be about female leadership and some of the things that I have learned and experiences that I've had. And being a female director and executive producer and just being in a very male-dominated field, from being a lawyer to creating this show in the series and just being a woman and leading, and that is interesting. [00:06:40][206.6]

Melanie Barr: [00:06:42] It is very interesting. I worked for the Los Angeles Dodgers for several years and I understand working and mostly male-dominated industries. And it's really great that you created your book series for kids because I have eight-year-old twins. And the questions that come home really early. My daughter at seven said, Mom, do boys have more friend problems or do girls? And I'm thinking, Wow, these questions are coming up really early, or they'll come home and say, Oh, so instead said something to me at school today. And so it's so important to teach them, just because someone says something about you, does it mean that that's necessarily true. So I find myself saying these things to them. So it's really great that you created that series for kids and that you're continuing to empower women. You have lived in multiple countries and currently have your own show on Amazon. Tell us about your show and what that experience has been like for you. And I have to ask, where is your favorite place that you have lived? [00:07:45][63.1]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:07:47] Yes, so the show is called the Expense International Ingarms, and it is the first reality docu series based show about being an ex-pat and living abroad. I came up with the idea of the show seven years ago when we were living in London, and I was an entertainment attorney at the time, I had entertainment clients were in the reality space. And in doing their agreements, in negotiating their deals and being on sets and, filming I got to know that genre. And I saw that there was a gap, that no one it really showcased the life that I was living. In unscripted TV, especially now it's unscripted, but it's very highly produced it, I think people start to feel that and see that. I want it to create something that was 1. family-friendly and then 2. that was extremely authentic and that is very hard to do. I'm a member of the Television Academy and I was sitting on a panel or in a workshop one day about casting in reality TV, and everybody's journey was different than mine, even in the way that I cast for the show. These were people that I had gotten to know and that were my friends, and it was just a story about my life, and we like to say that our show is based on a foundation of edutainment. So that's a phrase it was coined by the Black Panthers back in the 70s, and it's about being educational but also entertaining and finding that right balance. And so it is very authentic. Is it still? Yes, all shows are produced. I'm not just I don't have a crew running around following me at all times. There are things that are very intentional in terms of capturing certain experiences, but it is very authentic. And I tell people all the time, it is dramatic enough living abroad. You don't have to make up storylines or to have a negative drama sort of formula for entertainment. And it's been a great journey. My favorite place that we live this far is very hard because I really feel like every place that we went to was so purposeful at the time that we were there. So we lived in London for almost five years. Then we were in Taiwan for the last two years. And literally just moved three months ago to Singapore. And every place every country has a significant great aspects to it. There's no perfect place, but I definitely know that, for example, when we moved to London, the inspiration for the show, we used to do this soulful Sunday thing where we would gather as African-Americans in. And I don't know how I like attracted all the African-American people everywhere I go. I don't know how that happens. And my daughter's a social butterfly, too. I just meet people. So we would have these sort of potluck kind of events and we were at one of them and we would rotate houses. And this was like three or four years in and we were celebrating this one family that was getting ready to go back home. And we had this barbecue there, probably about 40 of us, 35, 40 of us there barbecuing, Frankie Beverly Mays, Beyonce was playing, kids were running on the lawn. We could have been anywhere. And then I looked up and there was Windsor Castle in the background because we were living in Ascot, Windsor area at the time. And it just I just and I was like, Wow, this is a show. Because when I looked around, especially from the lens of being African-American and how we are depicted in the unscripted genre, so often, it is the same sort of regurgitated storyline, same narrative characters. You don't really see people who are defining success from almost a normalized position of we actually just went to college and worked really hard. Nobody was like a rapper or an athlete. Not that there's anything wrong with that. There's a great showcase of talent, but it was almost the extraordinary from the ordinary in life, and it was just different. [00:14:17][390.3]

Melanie Barr: [00:14:18] I assume it's so exciting and fun to make the moves, but also lonely. So it's so great that you were able to bring people together and then see the vision for your show. [00:14:29][10.6]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:14:31] Thank you. I think this is not lonely in the sense that. and this is the advice that always give to all trailing spouses or accompanying spouses or whatever you wanna, however, you want to call it. You got to find purpose in the mood for yourself individually that is not attached to anybody else. And once you do that, it becomes less lonely. It's funny. You mention that this time around, even moving to Singapore and I've already made friends. In fact, next week we start filming here. OK, so folks that I've already met more African-American people, I don't know, like a magnet, but. And even now, I'm so happy with this show in that we showcase a variety of different ethnicities. Especially we've been filming season two. So we have a lot of people from various walks of life, various backgrounds, and I really wanted to expand the depth of this show in terms of showcasing ex-pects, period. But but here. And I think it helps with loneliness. I was just two weeks ago, I thought I felt lonely. And I remember I thought to myself, little else and in my bedroom I was like, Man, I hate moving because it's so lonely in the beginning. And then I stopped myself and I said, What are you really feeling? Are you really lonely because you're standing in a house full of people with two kids and a husband and you're meeting all this? Are you lonely? And it wasn't the loneliness. It wasn't that I was actually feeling, Oh, I'm sad. I'm alone. It was the newness. I hate being new. I hate not knowing. I hate having to start all over again, and being unfamiliar is frustrating. I was actually in the process of trying to find a crew here and casting and also grocerie. [00:16:39][128.9]

Melanie Barr: [00:16:41] You said those things about your show. You almost don't need to make anything up because every day is got to be such a new adventure for you. things are going to go right. Things are going to go wrong. Everything you need, to make a show interesting is there and happening in your daily life. Yes. [00:16:57][16.5]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:16:58] I mean, the thing is, in storytelling and in the especially in the unscripted genre, the idea, what they call or high stakes. So what are your high stakes? What are going to be your pitch, your art, even if you were in, scripted television, you have arcs, right? You have a good person, a bad person, you have storylines. You always reach an arc or a peak on each one of those storylines for each character. Unscripted television is not that different. The concept of telling a story or bringing the audience along for a journey is the same. Each character just so happens to be my daughter, my son, myself. So what are going to be the experiences or the storylines and the arcs in those storylines? It's the same concept is just in unscripted television sometimes, and I've been on set and I've seen this happen where producers will have to create, arguments between people and conflict in order for there to be something interesting that just isn't necessary when you live well. Everything is nothing is easy. Nothing is ordinary, even with just trying to in season two weeks for more of my journey of being vegan or trying to be vegan and going to the grocery store and not really being able to read ingredients. So I don't know if there's egg in these breadcrumbs or not, because I can't read it, so it's just its simple things. And we've been approached now that after season one and we've seen tremendous amount of success in awards and recognition and went when I was creating the show and trying to pitch it before I filmed it. No one could understand what I was talking about. They thought it was a travel show, got a lot of rejections, a lot of no's because no one is saying, when you're doing something for the first time, it's very hard and you'll experience a lot of rejections. And that's whether you're starting your own business. You may be doing something that is new and people will say, Well, is it really necessary because it hasn't been done? You just get a lot of people that sometimes they can't see your vision that you have because it's yours. And I literally got rejected so much that I just said, fine, I'm just going to film myself because when I'm running out of time, I knew that the movie portion is where the majority of drama happens and settling into a new space. And I'm like, These people take forever. They miss the good part. [00:19:29][151.3]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:20:23] It's just the things that happen when you're living abroad from being new. And really, the overall theme of the show is overcoming change and navigating through change. And I think this with so many people relate to the show because their common themes, although they're taking place in these amazing places, but it's about the dramatic journey of navigating change, and that is a common experience for us all, whether you're doing it internationally or domestically, whether you're moving to a new country or whether you're starting a new job or entering a new relationship. The newness of it all, as I go back to what was frustrating me with being new and being in Singapore and not knowing where to go and buy butter and not knowing how to get it was just the frustrating aspect of, OK, now I have to go to Google Maps and hope that this is the right place that I'm getting to in the middle of a pandemic through restrictions, masking the whole nine. And so it's just. Who needs a produce storyline when we're living abroad in the middle of a pandemic, [00:21:55][92.8]

Melanie Barr: [00:21:57] And it's so inspiring because You could say I'm just going to stay home and do the minimum. I'm not going to just stretch myself and learn the ways of this country. [00:22:11][13.9]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:22:13] Last week, I went through cultural training here. So we're corporate expense. We move from my husband's job. Although my husband would laugh and say, maybe my job is the one that's moving us, but clearly God has a purpose for you, and I don't know who's driving. [00:22:34][21.5]

Melanie Barr: [00:22:35] You made a beautiful experience out of it. [00:22:37][2.0]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:22:38] We moved to London. The first four months I sat on the couch and I went into a very deep depression and I didn't even know what trailing spouse syndrome or treatment spouse suppression was until I was researching for the show, like six or seven years later. And I read it. I didn't know there was a thing, and when I read about it, I was like, Oh my gosh, that was me. I sat there because as a lawyer, one we don't hope. Will you know it? When you go through studying for the bar exam and passing the bar and you work really hard? No one does all of that because they don't want to be a lawyer. But so oftentimes we equate our self-worth who we are, what we do. And I was that person,, I was when I needed the attorney. I didn't have any other hyphen to my name. That was it. I'd written a book. I hadn't done any, I started acting when I was a kid, but then I went off and adopted. But I really equated my identity with being a lawyer, and I couldn't be a lawyer in the traditional way. And so then who was I? What was that? Even though I was a mom at the time and still a wife and I love my kids and my kids love me, my kids are social beings like I am. They wanted to be around other kids had to get a life. And I didn't know how to do that. But I think finding your purpose, I invested in a life coach, which was very helpful. I think anybody who was navigating to through change or an interesting period in life give yourself permission that you don't have to do it alone. And even if that means maybe you don't know anybody in the area, but there are always online life coaches or enlisting some help to help navigate it. And once I did that and got up off the couch and really started to to live, I met all kinds of great people, not only other expats, but some of my closest friends to this day are folks who I met along the journey of opening Dress for Success or acting in London who are,local Londoners who are some of my greatest friends to this day. I think that's when you really start to live is when you do it for. So I made a pact with myself when I moved to Singapore to fight off the loneliness because I have the show, but we're almost done wrapping season two, so there won't be that much of Singapore. I told myself two days a week, you will explore new things about Singapore I had cultural training and the woman was surprised that I've been here for four months and the majority of things she said I should go and do in See, already I had already done because, you have to make a commitment. My kids are in school during the day. My husband's at work. Yes, I have a busy schedule, but if I don't take some self-care time Sometimes you just need to do things for yourself. [00:26:28][230.3]

Melanie Barr: [00:27:52] You have really good advice. I have eight-year-old twins, and it wasn't until my twins were born when I learned to really appreciate self-care just from sleepless nights. [00:28:04][12.1]

Melanie Barr: [00:28:16] like when you're alone, you think, Wow, I'm alone, and alone should be normal at time. [00:28:23][7.4] Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:28:24] sometimes my friends will come there like it's, 2:00 in the afternoon. What do you why are you taking a bath? I'm like, I wasn't really dirty. I just know that I'm not just by myself. This is awesome. Like, I'm [00:28:39][14.9]

Melanie Barr: [00:28:39] You are. Founder and current chairman of the Board of Trustees for a Dress for Success, Greater London and Chattanooga. What is your passion for supporting Dress for Success? [00:28:52][12.5]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:28:53] I love what the charity does, and honestly, my passion is because I understand how those women feel. I was downsized right after I had my daughter in the economic crisis of 2008. I was a real estate attorney in a retail real estate attorney at that, so I found myself in an economic crisis, affected a lot of different areas. Real estate was when retail was when I found myself in the vortex of both those. I'm like, How did I get here? Why don't I pick a field of law? And I work for one of the largest retail, real estate, retail or shopping mall developers in the world at the time. We should have saw the writing on the wall because eventually, everybody was leaving why we didn't have engineers, architects were leaving like everybody was getting downsized or fired in. We looked around. So I can't really have anybody work with us. That's odd. And then one day our department was gone, and I know what it's like because Idris was it says what we do is we really empower women through fashion, but we dress women from the inside out, giving them interview training and interview attire to get back in the workplace. And so we help unemployed women become gainfully employed, and that comes with a lot in terms of that. Rounds of the demographic of women that we serve, both international chapters or affiliates of the charity there. One hundred and fifty-five affiliates, thirty-five countries all over the world. And so I started the London affiliate and just recently in 2020 launched the Chattanooga affiliate in the middle of the pandemic because I'm crazy. But we have planned for almost, a little over a year, and I just refuse to let the pandemic stop us from existing. I think this is horrible. [00:30:55][122.2]

Melanie Barr: [00:30:56] it's so needed because so many women have left the workforce too, and it's amazing what women can accomplish with just a little support sometimes. [00:31:03][7.1]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:31:04] I always say everybody, no one succeeds in a bubble and we all just need even when you go for a new job interview and you call your girlfriend, you're like, Okay, I'm going for this interview. Can you can you look over my resume as a couple of questions? Can you help me warm up? You don't have that support system. Imagine trying to do all that by yourself. So we want to be the girlfriends that everybody has to help them warm up with a mock interview. I honestly think, especially, for example, our London affiliates, we've got an 80 percent success rate, which means that 80 percent of the women that come to us the first time for whatever job they're going for, they're successful after they come through our doors or through our programs. And that is because, you just sometimes you just need a boost. What motivates me to do it is because I understand. So when in twenty eight, when I was made redundant, as I say in London or downsized, as we say of US, I it took me 11 months to find another job. And it was a real. 2008 was a real economic crisis if you were there and it was rough and it really hit the legal community very hard. I know what it's like to file for unemployment because as we continue to pay for my child, stay here in order to get unemployment, you have to apply for a job every week. And so I applied for forty nine positions until I got my next job and eleven months later, actually creating another human. My my son was born in that time. Because why not? I had time on my hands. it was a very trying time. I know what it's like to want to work and not be able to be highly qualified. I had a law degree and accounting degree and MBA, and the market was what it was. But the erosion on confidence is real. And after a while, I was already a volunteer for Dress for Success at the time that it happened. And I remember thinking about if these women could do it and maintain hope and faithfulness and continue to push forward. And they were certainly in harder circumstances than I was. But it gave me the strength to continue to push forward. But every woman that walks through our doors, I see a bit of myself in them because I've been out of work before and wanted to have a job and have, some of them apply of 10, 15, 20 times and still getting rejected, even though we were in the middle of an economic crisis and I was highly qualified after a while, you start to wonder, is it me? What's wrong with me? I understand the questions that go through their mind. So I think I always say it's one thing to encourage somebody from a place of theory, from an idealistic, idealistic place to tell a woman, it's going to be OK. Know you'll get through. This is another thing to be qualified, to do that through experienceIt's a nonprofit business. But what gives me the tenacity to do it in a country where that I'm not from? Through all the odds and to stick with it, I'm still the chair of the board in London and I'm chairing in Chattanooga. What keeps me there is, the passion and being able to really identify with the women that we're helping and to know that we all need help. I need him. There were women that gathered around me that I had such a great support system in that time. And I just want to be that person for as many women as I possibly can. So that's why. [00:35:18][253.9]

Melanie Barr: [00:35:19] You're an inspiration because you can't be what you can't see. And you're helping people to see. [00:35:24][5.4]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:35:26] Oh, well, thank you, I appreciate that. It is very true, even if you can't see your way through a situation, you know it's opportunity exposure. And it's funny because when I got a life coach going back to that first four months and sitting in London and being lonely and being sad and searching for identity and purpose beyond just when we moved to London, my son was 15 months old and I was still breastfeeding at the time. Outside of breastfeeding change, changing diapers and our own clothes and doing laundry, I needed a greater meaning for getting up every day. And I'd say that without apology, because for some women, that's enough. For me, it was not. But being able to get a life coach and figure out what was the why in me, what was my driving force, what got me up to do whatever it was that I was going to do. And she helped me to see that there was a replete scene throughout everything I volunteered for at the time. I'd done a couple of pageants in the men's division and my platforms were always things and empowered women and helping other women and women's empowerment was a theme replete throughout everything that I did. Because when you're making the shift and you're rebuilding yourself or making a pivot and you're starting something new, people will put you in a box and put a lid on it. And sometimes we hold it down, somebody hands and we're like, Oh, I guess this goes on top of my head. I guess I shouldn't do this. I've been called everything from flighty to all. You just seem like you're all over the place. What on earth made you do that? people were women who were critical of me acting critical of me starting Dress for Success in London. If I remember this, one woman told me, that just seems like a lot of work. Dear, why would you want to do that? You seem like you're really scattered and all over the place, and you hear those type of narratives from other people that have labels or limits for you. they're projecting. Really? Especially if you're doing something that is within your wheelbarrow, within your bandwidth. I had a woman on one of the shows that I did called Legal Notion, which was the talk show we had to guess on. And she said, God sometimes gives everybody a different highways. Some people have a two lane highway, so people have a five lane highway, but you're going to drive on your highway, sometimes outside lanes and other people have to. There's nothing wrong with it, but people will say that there's something wrong with your express where, I've been called flighty in the beginning. Now they get it. But the first person I had to convince was myself and finding that commonality of, You know what? And I had this whole purpose statement that she made up for me, which was very, profound spiritual. I don't even remember it now. I remember it started out like, I am a beacon of light. Sit here to illuminate some some stuff of something like good long purpose statement. But what she did was took me on a journey of my why and understanding, even in the roles that I selected, the films that I've done, the shows that I've done, the books that I've written, the nonprofits that I start, every one of them, even with my own nonprofit, because my production company is a fabulous three. And our mission is telling stories and empowering women from marginalized narratives to storylines that you otherwise wouldn't be able to see. But we are intentional about taking opportunities to empower women in front of the lands and behind the scenes. I'm very proud of my production team that is always finds a way of being heavily side of women. It's not intentional because we are an equal opportunity employer. We have a lot of great guys on our team as well, but we have so many great female cameramen, our camerawomen and camera operators. But then we got the first editors, producers that are women and women of color and diversity. And so, you got to find your why? And it will help to drive all the look at things, but you got to convince yourself first because other people so true. [00:40:07][281.3]

Melanie Barr: [00:40:08] Well, with my kids, I find myself saying just because someone says something about you doesn't mean it's true. And then all of a sudden I thought,this applies to us, too. This applies to me. This applies to adults. [00:40:18][10.3]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:40:19] Yes, absolutely it. the power of words. They have a power that we give them, but they do carry weight. And so oftentimes it takes a lot of work on our part to deal with other people's stuff that they won't do the work to do. It's the prediction that you will experience in life, whether you are starting a new business, whether you're undertaking a new project. [00:42:18][118.6]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:42:22] But if you listen to the limitations and the people who project things onto you, you're not going to see the fullness of the journey that you're on. It's your gift is your journey. It's not anybody else's. Sometimes when I say, God calls us all to do things, but it's not a conference call. Sometimes it's just with you. Everybody is focused, not on the call. And that is OK. And I've had that happen so many times. [00:45:08][166.0]

Melanie Barr: [00:45:11] Magic happens, and we focus on the part of ourselves and our business that brings us joy. What is one tip that you can leave with us today about how you find and live your joy? [00:45:20][8.9]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:45:23] Do the work to find out what really sets your soul on fire, and I know that sounds very cliche. But it's so true. And what I mean by do the work invest in yourself in getting to know who you really are, not what you do, but who are you? What drives you? What excites you? I often say, you've got to be prepared. To stay true to your journey before opportunity presents itself. People often ask about how I assign work life balance. And that's because I don't believe in Work-Life Balance. Balance connotes that everything should be equal. Everything isnt an equal in my life. nothing compares to the my children and my family. And so I prioritize and I know what my priorities are because I've done work in every season to revisit. What are your priorities right now? What is life look like right now for you? What is important? What do you need beyond even what my husband needs? Even though we're the same? We are one, but we are one in mission. We are not one in God did create me as an individual, so I would say, do the work to get to know yourself was important to you, set your priorities and then take the lid off of yourself? Because the only limit that you have is one that you either accept from other people and that you place there yourself, pop the lid off and then see what happens. [00:46:55][92.2]

Melanie Barr: [00:46:57] Such incredible advice. This has been such a fun conversation. I feel like I could talk to you all day or in your case, in Singapore all night, which I should probably let you get some sleep. You've accomplished so much. Can you please tell our listeners how and where they can reach out to you or find you? [00:47:16][19.0]

Juanita Richelle Ingram: [00:47:17] Yes, absolutely. So my website is iamjuanitaingram.com and @iamjuanitaingram is also my social media handle, so I'm on Instagram and Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Tik Tok. I'm everywhere under @iamjuanitaingram. You could also go to The Experts Show. So we are on Amazon Prime, US and UK. If you live in a country where you cannot get Amazon Prime US or UK, if you live in Spain or Portugal or some other country and even in Taiwan or Singapore, you can go to purposestreaming.com and you can find the show there. So I've created my own streaming platform because everybody doesn't get Amazon. So our show is very international and we have people all over the world that want to see it and connect. You can go to expatsshow.com. And that's the website. You can connect with us there and all over social media. And yeah, if you want to see the show, it is there. If you live in a country, we are expanding our distribution. So hopefully one day that won't be an issue, but I'm proud of the streaming platform that we created out of necessity. But that's how you can connect, and I'm so appreciative of all of the support that we've received. [00:48:44][87.2]
