    Speech Therapy in Vietnam

    In June 2026, I met with three of the directors from Trinh Foundation Australia, a voluntary, non-profit, non-government organisation dedicated to helping the people of Vietnam establish speech therapy as a profession in their country 🇻🇳. We discussed the development of the profession over the last two decades, how the Trinh Foundation works in-country, current volunteering opportunities, and their vision for the future.  Here are some of the resources mentioned in this episode: 📗A Way With Words: The Path Towards Speech and Language Therapy in Vietnam  Volunteer with the Trinh Foundation Australia Current Opportunities Trinh Foundation Australia Instagram SLPs Overseas is an independently produced podcast.

  3. An American Studying SLP in Australia (REPLAY)

    An American Studying SLP in Australia (REPLAY)

    Back in June 2023, I caught up with Beth, an American SLP who studied her Master’s program in Australia. Back then, the podcast was called The SLP Cohort Catch Up because I was reconnecting with people from my Master’s, 10 years post-graduation. While a lot has changed in Beth’s life and my life since we originally recorded this interview, I wanted to replay it for you now as an SLPs Overseas episode because there is still so much that you can take away from hearing Beth’s story, particularly if you are an SLP-to-be, thinking about studying speech-language pathology overseas. SLPs Overseas is an independently produced podcast. I record, edit and publish episodes while working full-time as an SLP (and travelling, of course!)

  4. The Benefits of Studying Abroad

    The Benefits of Studying Abroad

    In May 2026, I had a chat with Jonathan, a Senior Institutional Relations Officer at a study abroad company. He also happens to be one of my closest friends and the person who inspired my first overseas move. Jonathan has two decades of experience in the field of international education, from his own study abroad experience in Melbourne, Australia, to his work setting up international programs and supporting other students in their study abroad ventures.  In this episode, Jonathan gives an overview of the kinds of study abroad programs currently available for students, shares factors to consider when choosing a destination country, and reflects on the challenges and benefits of his own study abroad experience.  An audio note: at times, you’ll hear the dulcet sounds of New York City in the background, given Jonathan’s Manhattan recording location. SLPs Overseas is an independently produced podcast. I record, edit and publish episodes while working full-time as an SLP (and travelling, of course!)

    A British SLP in New Zealand (Nelson)

    In May 2026, I had a chat with Grace, a British SLP living and working in Nelson, New Zealand. Nelson is at the top of New Zealand’s South Island. You might know that the Marlborough wine region is on the South Island. But did you also know that Nelson is home to the “Centre of New Zealand” monument? Well, technically, the geographic centre of New Zealand is about 60 kilometres southwest of Nelson. The monument in Nelson that you can visit today was the starting point for the first land surveys of New Zealand in the 1870s.  Grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure to learn what life is like as a British SLP in New Zealand 🇳🇿.

    British and American Teachers in Australia (Melbourne)

    In May 2026, I had a chat with Victoria (originally from the UK) and Katie (from the USA), two teachers who are now living and working in Melbourne, Australia. You may know that Melbourne is the birthplace of Kylie Minogue and the self-proclaimed coffee capital of the world. But did you also know that it’s where the ever-divisive bread spread, Vegemite, was created? Some resources mentioned in this episode include: 📱E-SIMs: Having an e-SIM makes staying connected while abroad so much easier. There are loads of e-SIM companies out there.

    A UK-Trained Italian SLP and an American Teacher in Italy (Milano)

    In April 2026, I had a chat with Vera, a UK-trained Italian SLP and Kim, an American teacher, both of whom are living and working in Milan, Italy.   You may know that Milan recently hosted the Winter Olympics and that it’s also Italy’s fashion capital. But did you also know that the iconic Duomo di Milano took nearly six centuries to complete? If you find yourself in Milan, make sure you take a tour of not only the inside of the cathedral, but the rooftop as well.  Grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure to learn what life is like as a UK-trained Italian SLP and an American teacher in Italy 🇮🇹.
