    Updates from an American SLP in Australia

    Back at the start of 2025 I had a chat with Abby, an American SLP living and working on Bribie Island in Queensland, Australia. In early December, Abby and I caught up again, and I also met her partner Monique. They’ve had a big year in their business, and we wanted to give you all an update. Not only have they officially hired their first employee (also an American SLP) but they have released a resource to help other SLPs Overseas who are thinking of making the move abroad, specifically to Australia. In this episode you’ll hear about how undertaking the process of hiring an international SLP inspired the creation of this resource. Grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure as we get an update on what life is like as an American SLP who has hired another American SLP in Australia 🇦🇺. 👍 Make sure you like, subscribe and follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ so you can hear episodes as soon as they land (yes, that's an airplane pun). SLPs Overseas is an independently produced podcast. I record, edit and publish episodes while working full-time as an SLP (and travelling, of course!) If you enjoy listening to my podcast and want to buy me a coffee to show your support, I would greatly appreciate it. ☕️⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/slpsoverseas⁠⁠ 🔗 Speech Supply Co Website 🔗 Speech Supply Co Instagram Enjoy the episode!

    An American Tele-SLP in Costa Rica

    In December 2025 I had a chat with Daphne, an American SLP working remotely via tele-therapy with clients in Alaska while living in Esterillos Oeste, Costa Rica. You may know that Costa Rica is located in Central America, with the Pacific Ocean on one side, the Caribbean Sea on the other and Nicaragua and Panama as its neighbours. But did you also know that Costa Rica has some of the most amazing nature and wildlife anywhere in the world? There are volcanoes, rainforests, beaches, birds, monkeys, turtles, sloths, and so much more.  Grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure to discover what life is like as an American SLP working remotely for an American employer while living in Costa Rica 🇨🇷. 👍 Make sure you like, subscribe and follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ so you can hear episodes as soon as they land (yes, that's an airplane pun).

    An Australian SLP in Mexico (Mexico City)

    In June 2024 I had a chat with Kate, an Australian SLP who owns a private practice in Mexico City, Mexico.  You may know that Mexico City is the capital of Mexico and it's the largest Spanish-speaking city in the world.

Since 2016 the city has been officially known as Ciudad de México (CDMX).  Kate is an amazing guest for this podcast because she has worked as a speech-language pathologist in Mexico and the UK, and she is now running her Mexico City private practice remotely while living in Australia. It’s time to grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure to discover what life is like as an Australian SLP in Mexico 🇲🇽. 🔗 Here are the links to some of the websites and Instagram accounts mentioned in this episode: @communicate_with_kate https://www.speechtherapymexico.com/ @⁠⁠⁠speech_train⁠⁠ https://www.speechtrain.org/⁠⁠  @⁠⁠⁠cultural_collaborations⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://www.cultural-collaborations.com/⁠⁠ . 👍 Make sure you like, subscribe and follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Instagram so you can hear episodes as soon as they land (yes, that's an airplane pun).
