About Expats Listen Podcast

🌍 Expats Listen is a podcast for expats and immigrants talking about the real issues faced when living abroad. Hosts Ryan (a South African therapist for expats) and Liz (an American who has lived in lots of countries) come from VERY different backgrounds; they met in an airport, got married, and now find themselves navigating life in Portugal. Every Friday you'll get fresh takes, deep dives, funny stories, and more. You’ll likely hear a new perspective or two, as well. If you live abroad or are thinking of making the move, these are conversations you’ll want to hear. Insta @expatslisten

   Loneliness

   If you're an expat or an immigrant, loneliness will hit you. OK really, if you're a human, loneliness will hit you at some point whether you like it or not. But what do we think of when we think of loneliness? Liz and Ryan share stories of when they've felt most lonely and their backgrounds and experiences shape them into very different perspectives on that same word.
