    The Loneliness Nobody Talks About When You Live Abroad

    You chose this life. You moved abroad. And yet sometimes you sit alone and feel completely lonely. You don't talk about it, because you don't want to sound ungrateful. Sound familiar?In this episode of Beyonder – The Podcast, your host Vee talks about one of the most common — and least spoken-about — experiences of living abroad: loneliness.Not just the obvious kind, but also the subtle versions that can sneak up on you even when life looks great on the outside.Having moved abroad five times herself, Vee shares her personal experiences with loneliness across different phases of life abroad. And as a life coach working with people navigating life transitions and identity shifts abroad, she sees this topic come up constantly. That's why she wanted to dedicate a full episode to it.In this episode, we talk about:The 5 different types of loneliness people experience abroadThe difference between being alone and feeling lonely3 practical tools to shift loneliness and start building real connectionWhether you just moved abroad, have been living away from home for years, or are preparing to make the leap, this episode will help you better understand what you’re feeling and give you practical tools to move through it.Because sometimes loneliness abroad isn’t just about missing people. Sometimes it’s connected to identity shifts, disconnection from yourself, or being in an in-between phase where the old version of you no longer fits.If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone living abroad who may need to hear this reminder: you’re not the only one feeling this way.Resources mentioned in this episode:Episode about the In-Between Phase: Listen hereCoaching with Veerle: Book a Clarity Call✨ Want to explore relocation, travel, identity, belonging and purpose more deeply?

What they are, what they’re not, and how they can profoundly expand your perspective.Felicia had just arrived in Sydney to begin an open-ended adventure, embracing the unknown externally - and that becomes the perfect gateway into exploring what it means to journey inward.We dive into:– What “plant medicine journeys” actually mean – Why they’re often described as traveling through your inner landscapes– The difference between a challenging experience and a “bad trip”– The importance of safety, guidance, and environment– Why integration before or after a ceremony matters just as much as the journey itself– The connection between plant medicine, meditation, nature, and presence– Community, asking for help, and remembering you don’t have to navigate deep transformation aloneThis is not medical or legal advice, but a personal reflection on Vee's and Felicia's lived experiences and the lessons they've gathered through both inner and outer exploration.Because sometimes going beyond borders isn’t about changing countries. It’s about expanding consciousness.If you’ve ever felt curious about plant medicine — or simply about accessing deeper layers of yourself — this episode invites you to explore what resonates for you.Subscribe to Beyonder to stay connected to future conversations that expand horizons — inside and out.For more resources & information about Vee's work to support your inner and outer journeys, go here.

    The In-Between Phase: When Your Old Life No Longer Fits But Your New One Hasn't Arrived Yet

The phase where your old life no longer fits, but your next chapter isn’t clear yet.In this episode of Beyonder, Vee explores what is often called the in-between phase. A time that can feel confusing, restless, and uncomfortable, especially during life transitions like moving abroad or changing careers.
