Confidence Lessons From a Life Abroad

In this episode of The Global Girlfriend, we open up about what it really takes to build confidence while living, traveling, and working around the world. From awkward first days at new jobs in unfamiliar countries to strutting through stylish cities with our best “main character energy,” we share candid stories of the times we felt bold, and the times we had to fake it.We reflect on how confidence looks different across cultures, how it changes as we grow, and why it’s perfectly normal to doubt yourself, even years into expat life. We also chat about the small but powerful things that help us feel braver abroad: solo adventures, fierce playlists, journaling, and watching local women live fully in their own unique ways.Whether you’re a seasoned traveler, new to life abroad, or just looking to feel a bit braver day-to-day, we hope this conversation leaves you inspired, reassured, and ready to step confidently into your next adventure.We’d love to hear your own confidence lessons too!
