Before You Move Abroad: What Actually Gets Hard (and Better)

00:00

13:34

Thinking a move abroad will fix everything? In this raw, unscripted episode, I pull back the curtain on what life overseas is really like—the good, the gutting, and the everyday in between. We talk mental health wins, culture shock, language gaps, time-zone whiplash, taxes (twice!), and the ache of being far from family during emergencies and milestones. If you want the freedom of a life abroad and the truth about the trade-offs, this is your reality check—with love.
