Welcome to Think Global: Life Overseas! This season, we’re taking a new approach—sharing honest, funny, and meaningful conversations with friends around the world about life, friendship, and everyday experiences of living cross-culturally.

What’s it like to raise a family in a different culture? Tune in for a conversation with a friend who shares the joys, challenges, and unexpected gifts of raising children overseas. 

At Think Global, we often say, “The world is our home.” Yet in many ways, we’re all nomads journeying through a world that is ultimately temporary. In this episode, we explore what it means to live well with a nomadic mindset, finding purpose, connection, and joy along the way.

In this episode, we invite you to take a fresh look at how you view and use your free time—whether it’s a weekend, summer break, or even retirement. What if your free time could be more than just a break? What if it could be a way to serve others and invest in something that lasts?

Traveling and living overseas requires a high tolerance for uncertainty. In this episode, we explore how uncertainty is a constant part of life—and how we can learn not just to tolerate ambiguity, but to thrive in the midst of it.

Why is it important to step outside your comfort zone and embrace new cultures? Join us as we explore how meaningful connections and cultural experiences can ruin you for the ordinary—in the best possible way.

Kicking off season five of Think Global, we explore how to overcome language barriers and build connections with people around the world that go beyond words.

Join us as we explore common questions about the risks of traveling and living abroad, discussing how wisdom and courage can help us embrace new opportunities and overcome fears.

In this episode, we’re joined by our friend Stephen Proctor, author of Wild Wonder, for an inspiring conversation about how nature teaches us about ourselves, our place in the world, and the importance of slowing down to live well. 

Join us as we dive deeper into two key virtues from Ryan Holiday’s book Right Thing, Right Now. With so much conflict and tragedy around the world, how can we develop understanding and empathy for other people's lives and struggles and become people who help, even in small ways? 

Inspired by Ryan Holiday's book Right Thing, Right Now, this episode explores the virtues of loyalty and decency – how they distinguish us, impact our relationships, and shape our world.

This month, we sit down with our friend Scott, who has experienced life in multiple countries and has plenty of entertaining stories to share. Join us for a laughter-filled episode as we explore the joys, challenges, and adventures of living around the world! 

As the Summer Olympics approach, we explore how sports create a unique platform for unifying people and fostering global connections.

Hearing news from around the world can often leave us feeling overwhelmed and powerless. How can we shift our perspective to see the challenges in our global and local communities as opportunities help? 

On this special episode, our guests, Hudson and Emily, share about their journey to visit every country, the kindness of strangers, the friendships formed across cultures, and the impact these experiences have had on their perspectives.
