The Black Expat Podcast aims to highlight the ups and downs of the expat experience. It touches on travel, current events, jobs, friendships, family, mental health and the overall expat experience. The goal is not only to provide others with information that I wasn't able to gain before my experiences, but also provide a space for expats worldwide to have their voices, stories, and experiences shared. We as people have far more in common than we think. Through interviews with other expats and people all over the world, I've learned of the many paths that may take when deciding whether or not to become expats. My hope is that The Black Expat Podcast reaches those seeking interesting stories and perspectives, good laughs, and information and knowledge presented in an entertaining way.

We are all more than just our titles . Whether it's at work or in any type of relationship, we're more than just teachers, managers, doctors, or professionals. We all wear many hats and represent so much more than our titles would leave people to believe. For Expats, when/how does that separation occur? When do we become, more than just an Expat?

Black culture is present and prevalent all over the world. Black people in some of those same spaces, however, are not. Outside of our homes it can be a struggle at times for people of color to find our safe Havens. Whether it be at work, in social settings, or on the opposite side of the world, Havens are important for our mental and physical health. There will always be those who look down on what you're trying to accomplish. It's inner motivation, drive, and passion for those for whom we care most that keeps us pushing forward. Where is your safe Haven?

Fear has this weird way of creeping into our psyche and changing the way we operate. As black expats and millennials it's important that we keep the conversation going around mental health and FEAR, as it relates to our professions. There's a multitude of opportunities available to us worldwide and working toward "networking out" as much as we "network up" in key. Chelsey also reflects on her month long stint on island of Formosa (Taiwan), the benefits of sound boards, breaking down invisible barriers, and more. Change takes time, effort, and understanding. We owe it to ourselves to invest in ourselves.
