    Is Life Better Abroad? An Insider Scoop on Expat Life (Visas, Culture Shock and Money)

    256: “I was ready to see a new way of life... there are other countries where I could be happy and experience a similar, if not greater, quality of life than I had.” - Chelsea Riffe For those of you curious about living abroad, I’m sharing today what it truly takes to live overseas, from lessons, logistics, emotional whiplash to rewarding transformations that come with expat life. **Snippets** from the episode: “Leaving the U.S. was about finding a different rhythm of life, testing out if a new culture could offer more fulfillment." "Moving abroad isn’t always easy; you’re adjusting to new norms, letting go of familiar conveniences, and learning to live without the constant hustle." "If you don't speak the language, treat it like a business challenge—take a class, hire a tutor, and immerse yourself as much as possible." "Building relationships with local landlords or AirBnB hosts can go a long way in securing affordable, longer-term stays." "Think of yourself as a visitor with a purpose—whether you're in South America, Europe, or Africa, respect the culture and adapt instead of expecting it to change for you." Wherever you go, go with an open mind and an adventurous heart. Taking the leap to live abroad isn’t just about escaping routine. Life abroad can be a beautiful transformation if you're willing to let go and embrace the journey (and Americans, there are other places to live!)

    Body Slamming Life with Amanda Norgaard

    255: “But colliding shores with something beyond the self is a relief. And it's made me a lot freer in my expression, in the way I move through life, the way I show up, the way I do the work that I do because if everything is about how I come across and who's going to perceive the work in this way and it's a constant measure of the self and that's exhausting and we're missing the point.” - Amanda Norgaard For free spirits craving authenticity and creative expression, this episode with Amanda—a Kundalini Yoga teacher, writer, poet, and Creative Mentor who defies convention—is for you. Dive in as she unpacks her journey of breaking free from rigid spiritual norms, embracing her true self, and building a soulful business on her own terms. **Snippets** from the episode "I think Kundalini energy calls to us in ways we can't ignore. It’s not just a practice; it's a mirror, showing us parts of ourselves we may have suppressed or avoided." "It’s not about what I wear or following some spiritual uniform. Kundalini, to me, is about being true to myself, even if that means jeans and a t-shirt." "Community isn’t about us all thinking or looking the same; it’s about creating a space where every color, every uniqueness, is welcome to show up." "This journey taught me to make my life the ritual – to integrate spirituality into every moment, not just when I'm on the mat or in meditation." "I don't have a roadmap for my business; I simply follow what feels alive in me. Sometimes that means stepping back, recalibrating, and listening deeply to what comes next." If you’re drawn to the idea of blending authenticity with spiritual exploration, redefining community, and embracing every facet of your journey unapologetically, Amanda’s insights offer an inspiring lens on living a life that’s deeply rooted in personal truth and raw self-expression. It’s intense, real, and deep as the bottom floor of the ocean - and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

    Naughty Art, Navigating Relationships as a Public Figure, and Closing the Orgasm Gap with Jessica Stahl aka Vanilla Cool Dance

    254: "I started the account originally as my, indeed, like diary and doodles, and I would turn my situation, which at the time felt quite embarrassing and cringy, if you will, into a more humorous, self-deprecating cartoon." - Jessica Stahl aka vanillacooldance From creating personal doodles to becoming a sex-positive artist and advocate in Amsterdam - tune in to listen to Jessica Stahl, also known as Vanilla Cool Dance, share her POV on censorship, talking about sexuality online, the orgasm gap and dating while running VCD. **Snippets** from the episode: "My mom got me my first vibrator when she found out that I was having sex and she encouraged me to explore my own pleasure." "The orgasm gap is the basically the pleasure gap between let's say cis men and cis women. And it's essentially… there's about a 30% difference in reliably orgasming with a partner." "So the artwork was of…a king going down on a queen. And it said, a true king always knows who comes first. And I put this throughout the whole city and I absolutely loved it because to me, it's really that getting that instant feedback and starting those conversations on the street was one of the most amazing things that I've experienced." "Now that I've started my newsletter, which is a bit more intimate and personal, I have fears a little bit of how will this affect my dating life because it is a bit more vulnerable when it's not just in cartoon form."

    Retiring an Old Identity & How One Question Can Change Everything with Zoey Greco

    253: "I am an artist, but I am an artist that does not have a medium. I don't create art, but I am a creative director. I'm a visionary." - Zoey Greco For those of you feeling challenged with the evolution of your brand and identity in the spiritual business world, this episode is for you! **Snippets** from the episode: "I think Merhipsey was like a way for me to feel like I was being witnessed as being worthy of being spiritual. I also feel like she was kind of something to emulate for people, like the lifestyle that they wanted or the identity that they wanted.” "Comparison is an abuse of time. I stand on that.” "I think it's important for me to be a little bit messy in this process and like visibly messy and be like, hey, guys, we're under construction… reminds me of like when you go to Disney World and they're like, pardon our pixie dust, we're building.” "What brings you joy is truly what you are supposed to be doing. And it's when we ignore that inner voice that says, but I like this, but I want this, but this makes me happy in favor of, but it doesn't make enough money, but I can't, but I couldn't, but I'm not good enough, but my parents would be disappointed, but no one would understand, but but but… all that’s b******t." "We are not the same. And it's when we abandon self in favor of assimilation or coming into standardization that we deny ourselves and abandon ourselves. That's where we lose ourselves." "It's actually kind of exciting to be in process and to realize that, in the figuring out, that's where we discover ourselves.” If you're ready to embrace the messy process of growth, find joy in your journey, and discover your authentic self, Zoey Greco's insights offer a refreshing perspective on living a spiritually aligned life while navigating the complexities of personal and professional development.

    Escaping the Perfectionist “Pain is Progress” Trap with Antonia Dolhaine

    252: "Perfection is never about the perfection. It's about what we think being perfect will get us." - Antonia Dolhaine Perfectionists who are ready to be released from the cold, hard grip perfectionism has trapped you in - this episode with Antonia Dolhaine, a Somatic Depth Coach and Artist, is for you. Snippets: "We live in a globally connected world now, but our evolutionary hardwiring is not updated yet. So we still operate socially in these very tribal ways. So we could be 99% the same, but we'll zero in on that 1% difference and blow it up and experience it as a threat in our nervous systems." "Every single perfectionist I've ever worked with, including myself, has at its core been seeking a sense of relaxation. They've just been trying to relax at all costs. And the threat of rejection, of being exiled from the tribe, if they're being seen a certain way, feels so intense and creates so much tension that they get stuck in this bind." "What they're actually afraid of most of the time is that they will agree with other people's rejections and use it to reject themselves." "For people who fear rejection, it's what they don't realize a lot of the time is it's not, it's less being rejected by others that they fear, even though that's what they think their main fear is. What they're actually afraid of most of the time is that they will agree with other people's rejections and use it to reject themselves." "Perfection is never about the perfection. It's about what we think being perfect will get us." If you’re ready to escape the chokehold perfectionism has on you, Antonia is here to help.

    Wavy Marketing, Seasonal Business, and Why You Don’t Always Need to “Be On”

    250: What if your business was run like a juicy red strawberry stand, only in season in the summer? And the rest of the year was focused on planting the seeds, watering them, and nurturing them with enough sunlight to burst out of the ground? This is the beauty of seasonal working - or what I’m coining as wavy marketing. In this solo ep, I break down the components of wavy marketing, explaining how it allows for periods of high and low activity that align with personal energy levels and life’s curveballs. This style of running my biz and marketing has allowed me to maintain a thriving business while prioritizing travel, relationships, and personal growth. If you're an entrepreneur or content creator seeking a more flexible and intuitive way to approach your marketing efforts, this episode is for you! Snippets: • ‘I believe I've personally confused consistency with frequency. I think I've also confused it with being prolific.’ • ‘I consider what I do very wavy. So here's what I mean. Wavy marketing is essentially seasonal marketing. I like to work in seasonal cycles versus always on.’ • ‘Why am I going to force myself to do these things that I don't like, just to say that I'm quote unquote marketing? I don't think that's good marketing if you don't like doing it. If your energy is being depleted and you hate doing it, and you're like, this f***ing sucks, I think people feel that energy.’ • ‘Make a quadrant on a piece of paper and on the top left, write what I love and what I'm good at. On the right, write what I love and I'm bad at. On the bottom left, write what I hate and I'm good at. And what I hate and I'm bad at. Now, once you list all those things out, decipher where to put your energy, and the hate sections, the bottom, that should either be automated, delegated, or deleted.’ Ready to decenter social media and focus on guest podcast spots to grow your visibility and revenue?
