  • 150: How to move to Europe as a freelancer, contractor, or online business owner 14.09.2026 24min
    The biggest question most people have about moving abroad is how to find a European employer to sponsor them. But what if you make your own money? You do not need anyone to sponsor you. You just figure out the visa that fits your situation, apply for it, and move. If you have ever thought I would move to Europe tomorrow if I could just figure out how to make money there, this episode is for you. Here is what we are covering: The difference between a freelancer, contractor, self-employed profe...
  • 149: The grass isn't always greener—but what if it is? 07.09.2026 24min
    Have you ever thought about moving abroad and then immediately started talking yourself out of it? Maybe you picture yourself living in Italy, spending your mornings at a cafe, or moving to Spain with the beach just a short walk away. And then the questions start. What if I hate it? What if I miss my family? What if I move and realize America actually has it better? There is some truth to that. But I think we have taken that phrase way too far. Because sometimes the grass is not greener. Some...

  • 147: Do you really have to take a pay cut to move to Europe? 24.08.2026 21min
    One of the biggest things I hear from Americans who want to move abroad is this: I would love to move to Europe but I cannot afford to take a huge pay cut. And honestly? They are not completely wrong. If you move from New York to Portugal and take a local job, you are probably not going to make your New York salary. But that is not the only way to build a career in Europe. And today we are busting that myth wide open. In this episode I am walking you through six concrete strategies for moving...
  • 146: I want to move abroad, but my parents are getting older. What should I do? 17.08.2026 24min
    There is one question I get that has nothing to do with visas, money, or jobs. It is this: what about my parents? Maybe you have been dreaming about living in Europe for years. But your parents are getting older and that one thought keeps stopping you. What if something happens? What if they need me? Am I being selfish for leaving? If any of that sounds familiar, this episode is for you. Here is what we are covering: The difference between feeling guilty about leaving and your parents actuall...
  • 145: The 4 easiest ways Americans can move to Europe 10.08.2026 22min
    Most people start their research by obsessing over visas and which country is the easiest to move to. In reality though, there is one question that determines almost everything else. How are you going to earn money? Answer that first and the right visa and the right country follow a lot more naturally from there. In this episode I am walking you through the four easiest and fastest ways Americans are successfully moving to Europe while earning an income. Here is what we are covering: Why most...

    Most people spend months or even years planning how to move abroad. They research visas, jobs, apartments, and flights. But almost nobody talks about what happens after you actually arrive.

  • 143: If I could go back, would I still leave America? (I get a bit raw in this one...) 27.07.2026 29min
    If I woke up tomorrow as my 23-year-old self, knowing everything I know now, would I still move abroad? It is one of the biggest questions I ask myself from time to time. And today I am answering it honestly. This episode is a little different. There is no step-by-step guide or checklist. Instead, I am getting personal about what it has actually been like to build a life abroad, what I would do exactly the same, what I would change, and what surprised me in ways I never expected. Here is what...
  • 142: How to Make Friends When You Move Abroad: My Best Tips for Building a Community 20.07.2026 29min
    One of the biggest myths about moving abroad is that friendships will happen naturally once you arrive.

In this episode I am sharing my best tips for intentionally building a community abroad so your new country actually starts to feel like home. Here is what we are covering: Why community matters more than most people realize and why it often determine...
  • 141: The honest truth about housing when you move abroad 13.07.2026 18min
    Everyone dreams about moving abroad. The cafes, the walkable streets, the slower pace of life. But then comes one of the biggest reality checks nobody talks about — finding somewhere to live. Imagine trying to sign a lease in a country where you have no local credit history, no references, and no idea how the rental system works. Finding housing abroad is one of the most underestimated parts of the move. And today I am getting into the honest truth of what it actually looks like. Here is what...

  • 139: The biggest mistakes Americans make when choosing a country abroad 29.06.2026 21min
    Most people choose a country before they understand what kind of life they actually want. They fall in love with a destination and try to force their life into it. But moving abroad is not a vacation. It is real life. And the country that makes the best vacation destination is not always the country that makes the best home. In this episode, I am walking through the wrong way to choose a country abroad and the questions you should be asking instead. Here is what we are covering: Why your vaca...
  • 138: What happens to your friendships when you move abroad? 22.06.2026 19min
    One of the biggest fears people have about moving abroad is not the visas or the job search. It is leaving behind the people they love. What if I lose touch with my friends? What if I miss my family too much? Will my relationships even survive the distance? In this episode, I am getting honest about what actually happens to your friendships and family relationships after you move abroad. And some of it might genuinely surprise you. Here is what we are covering: The relationships that actually...
  • 137: Why some Americans love living abroad (and others move back home) 15.06.2026 23min
    If moving abroad is so amazing, why do some people move overseas, love it, and never come back, while others return home within a year or two? You probably know both stories. The person who says moving abroad was the best decision they ever made. And the person who says, "It was good, but I'm ready to be home." So what is the real difference between those two people? And which one will be you? In this episode, I am getting honest about what actually determines whether you will thrive ab...

    Have you ever felt like you missed your chance to move abroad? Maybe you're in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or beyond, and you've started telling yourself that international living is something you were supposed to do years ago. A gap year. A study abroad program. A backpacking trip after college. But what if that's not true? In this episode, you'll learn: • Why moving abroad is a lifestyle decision, not an age-based decision • Where the "I'm too old to move abroad" belief comes from • The advantages ...

  • 134: Why moving abroad changes your standards for life 25.05.2026 19min
    One of the most unexpected things moving abroad teaches you is how much your standards for life can change. Not in a spoiled way, but in a "wow, I didn't realize life could feel like this" kind of way. And once that shift happens, it's hard to unsee it. In this episode, I break down what "standards" actually means in this context. This is not about luxury or upgrading your lifestyle. It's about what you start seeing as normal, healthy, enjoyable, and possible, including things like work-life ...
  • 133: Top 10 strategies to get a job offer abroad 18.05.2026 39min
    Do you think you need to be exceptional to get hired abroad? Think again. The truth is, companies aren't rejecting international candidates because they don't like foreigners. They're rejecting uncertainty. And once you understand that, the whole game changes. In this episode, Jordan gets brutally honest and tactical about what it actually takes to land a job offer in another country. She applied to 200 jobs over six months with nothing to show for it — then flipped her strategy and walked aw...

    A lot of Americans romanticize moving to London… until they actually start researching the visa process and try to get job sponsorship. Then suddenly it feels impossible. Visa rules keep changing. Companies seem hesitant to sponsor international applicants. And headlines make it sound like the UK is shutting its doors. So is moving to London still realistic for Americans in 2026? In this episode, we’re having an honest conversation about what it actually takes to move to London right no...
