No Place Better Than The US? -AND- Wellness Abroad Pt 2
IG Live from June 2024 where Christine discusses the latest bonus episode, Wellness Abroad pt. 2.
In light of the most recent US Presidential debate, there is renewed interest in moving abroad.
Along with the renewed interest in leaving the US, there is a recurring chorus of naysayers claiming that "everyone who moved abroad in 2016 has returned," or "everywhere is just as 'bad' as the US.
Christine discusses these sentiments and shares her opinion based on living in Spain for 7 years and interviewing 100+ Black women who have lived and thrived abroad.

Five comments but only two showing, hmmm.
🥰🥰
Christine's insights on thriving abroad are so inspiring. Excited to learn more about the benefits of living internationally.
❤❤❤❤
Inspirational so excited for her journey. Stay blessed Tayler❤
So glad you enjoyed it!
Christine, thank you for an insightful AMA session. Your advice for solo travelers and young ambitious Black women is invaluable. Looking forward to revisiting the archives.
Christine's Wellness Abroad series offers such profound insights into how moving abroad reshapes personal wellness. Excited to dive into these inspiring stories.
Thank you for posting and sharing ❤
Thank you for listening!
Are you still living in Guatemala? I’m planning on moving g there and looking to speak to other black women that have lived there.
😂😂😂
i absolutely love this episode!!! This interview is meaningful to me for one big reason: I needed a big nod from the universe today. .... I'm tightening my grip and hanging on. Thanks.
❤❤❤
Great interview. Thanks for sharing.
Nikki where did you find the apartment gig?
Nikki probably won't see your question, but you can learn more about her (and how to get in touch) via her show notes page: www.flourishintheforeign.com/episodes/nikki-faye Hope this helps! 🙂
Apartment reviewer??? 👀
Awesome ❤
Thanks so much for listening! 🙂
Good interview! USA is very anti-black women. Yes, black women should keep their dating options open. We are not undesirable. I love hearing bw finding love, marriage, etc. We need to have men who will love, protect,provide for you and his children. The color, nationality shouldn't matter.
Thanks so much for tuning in, I appreciate it!
Insightful and inspiring, as always. I appreciate the line of questions. Helps listeners to think carefully about the different angles of one's experience. I'm from Toronto... seeking to move to Europe. That's funny, I'll admit...but, it's really isn't about the location - it's about flourishing abroad. Thank you, Christine. The quality of your content is unmatched. Looking forward to your future podcasts and projects.
This is such an informative and helpful podcast. Thank you so much, I liked and subscribed. Just a quick question, do you know if 1. Are you allowed to apply for a longer term visa such as the non lucrative or digital nomad visa while you’re on this visa? 2. What type of visa do you get for the NALCAP
Thank you for the podcast I found it really inspiring. Especially as an American planning to retire to Spain soon. I'll be visiting in the spring so excited.
Nicks why am I listening to this and I’m like this sounds just like Nicole!!! 😆
Next time make a video people will watch, maybe a sit and talk video, thanks for sharing
Thanks for listening! This is an audio podcast with over 100 episodes. There are some video interviews on this channel, just scroll back. 🤗
TH-cam didn’t notify me of this! It’s a conspiracy 😩

Amazing interview. Thank you for sharing. I learned so much.
Thanks so much for listening! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
By the way, thanks for listening to our podcast [Chipsticks & Forks, Please] 🙇🏾♀️
I love the books!! Thanks for introducing me to Lola’s books! You are right, giving grace is very important. I was so frustrated with Kemi’s decisions. Ha!
You're very welcome! Thanks so much for listening! Kemi definitely got on my nerves! lol
I loved this! Cant wait to watch part 3💜💜💜
Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks for the spoiler alert at the beginning! I’m going to read the book on Libby first 😅
Sis thank you so much for this amazing and helpful video, advices, and sharing your personal experience! It seems like you had an amazing experience!! ❤️❤️ I am applying this coming January 2024 😅 wish me luck! I’m on my final year as an undergraduate student. One question I had was, were you able to choose your teaching level? Or does the Spanish Education pick for you? I wanna try to work for a high school one, so it’s easier to connect with students more!
Yes more content like this please!
Love this convo!
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for listening!
Such a good episode. Christine do you have any resources regarding re-entering the US after teaching abroad. This is what makes me the most nervous
Hey Toria! Thanks so much for listening! I don't have any resources on re-entering the US after teaching abroad. Maybe check out Tiffany from A(broad) in Education, she might have some episodes or resources on this. Hope this helps!☺
Loved hearing your experience there! Makes me want to go!
Great interview. I was looking for the insight of a bw living in Uruguay. I was interested in the country. It sounds like a great place. I'll put it on my country shopping list.
If you can, try to visit beforehand. I've been and thoroughly enjoyed it but everyone's experience is different. I had no issues; was welcomed every where.

Thank you for saying that the "welcome home" in Ghana is to make you vulnerable to sell you something. It was always obvious to me from the jump, but I understand the sentiment for wanting it to be real. It always felt like a West African MLM. Lots of great stories from working with the TRC in SA to Peace Corps life in Namibia. You've definitely had quite the life. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, you have to be discerning no matter where you are. Thanks for listening!
Excellante as always
This book is in my library in Alaska.
Have you read it yet? Would love your thoughts!
@@FlourishInTheForeign I haven't read it yet but I'll check it out next week. You two ladies covered a lot of micro aggressions of just being black in majority white spaces. It sounds like a great read.
everything is not enough ...Wow😊😊I need to upgrade my glasses...lovely have to have you sign these books at a book fair if you come in person to an event if I learn of one near me.
Summer reading program I hope to obtain my own copy for my personal library of books for my children and family..lovely🌼🌼🌼
Trash Girl Burnout 😎👍🏽 useless video
This podcast has changed my perspective. It offers such excellent and varied content. Question: I've been looking into Valencia, Spain for a few years - is there a budget friendly hotel or place to stay that listeners would recommend on my first visit, as I audition the city for laying down roots? Also, best tour company or guide recommendations?
@@FlourishInTheForeign Thanks for your response. It's very helpful. I'm a teacher and wondered if you'd recommend any schools in the region (international or otherwise) to look for volunteer or auxiliary opportunities?
Grand Risin'... How u doin' pretty lady??
Very good interview. I love that Sheila is making the life she wants and is being embraced by her family of choice.
Thanks so much for listening and supporting! Sheila is incredible!
so inspiring 🙌🏾
