HELP! Where Are All My Friends With Kids?
Parenting hits differently when you’re doing it without your people.
In this week's episode, we talk about the isolating part of moving abroad that no one really warns you about: not just missing your people, but missing the ease that comes from having a village. We unpack the difference between having “resources” and actually feeling connected, why everything feels harder when every answer requires research (and translation), and how parenting can feel heavier when you don’t have other families around to share the load. We also share practical, realistic ways to start building your community, plus the reminder that it won’t feel this hard forever.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How community becomes a shortcut to answers, support, and calmer parenting
- Simple ways to start building your village (even if you’re shy, busy, or new)
- Why it does get easier with time, exposure, and a few brave asks
- How staying connected to people back home can help you feel grounded while you rebuild abroad
