This podcast is for anyone building a life far away from home, and for anyone stepping into a new chapter of life. It's a warm, safe space for us to learn and evolve together. Each episode, host Fiona Chu sits down with immigrants and expats for real, intimate conversations about the good and the tears — identity shift, self-doubt, loneliness, moments that don't always make it onto highlight reels. But also the fun, breakthroughs, and unexpected life lessons along the journey. I hope these stories make you feel a little less alone, and find the strength to keep going.
