About this listen

Living abroad often forces families to walk a fine line between independence and interdependence — between “I’ve got this” and “we’ve got this.”

In this episode, host Eva sits down again with Angela from the Expat Parenting Collective to unpack how couples can find balance while raising families in a new country. Together, they explore:

  • What independence and interdependence really mean for expat parents

  • How to share responsibilities without resentment or burnout

  • Why intentional communication matters more than ever

  • Ways to blend home and host cultures for a grounded family rhythm

  • Practical tools like weekly check-ins, shared calendars, and outsourcing

Whether you’re parenting without a village, navigating new cultural norms, or trying to lighten the mental load — this conversation reminds you that you don’t have to do it all alone.

Listen in for real strategies, honest reflections, and encouragement for every international parent building a home away from home.
