Moving Countries 101
Whether you’re moving for work, love, or lifestyle, one truth remains: relocating is about more than the destination. Host Clare Kay leads you on a quest to create a life abroad: the paradox of arriving in a new destination, yet discovering the real journey is the ongoing experience of making another country home.
Clare is your essential guide to navigating the complexities of moving countries and realising the benefits of a new lifestyle. Drawing on her extensive international experience, Clare helps you uncover both the dreams and the realities of relocation, from the logistics of settling in to the emotional and cultural shifts that shape daily life.
Through authentic guest stories and Clare’s solo observations, you’ll gain practical guidance and fresh perspectives to prepare you mentally and emotionally for life abroad. You’ll hear from global movers who have relocated for jobs, relationships, family, or lifestyle, and learn how they handled the challenges and opened up to the opportunities.
Their stories illustrate how moving unsettles us emotionally, physically, culturally, and spiritually, but each conversation shows how moving countries provokes growth, awareness, and possibilities.
🎧 Tune in for revealing insights, heartfelt reflections, and uplifting moments that inspire confidence, connection, and clarity as you create a fulfilling life abroad.

In this solo episode, Clare talks about her move to America, which she and her husband undertook for economic and lifestyle reasons. But, her mother was ill, so she was far from certain that the move was right for them at that time. Fortunately, her mother advised her and her husband to hold fast and pursue what they wanted. She reassured them that things would work out OK for them all, which you will see when you listen to Clare´s story is exactly what happened.
In sharing her story, Clare also explains how their move inspired her and led to her starting the Moving Countries 101 podcast.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
· If you are waiting for the right time to move, you will in all likelihood never reach the stage where you are 100% ready.
· At some level you are never fully ready to move country. You will always have a few doubts, especially when it comes to your family.
· Each move is unique. We are all different, which means that what we need to do to make a success of the move is also going to be different.
· The advice of others will only get you so far, you also need to do your own research, especially when it comes to things that are important to you and the way you want to live.
· Embrace not being ready. Certain things will catapult you into action. You will be presented with challenges which turn out to be great opportunities.
BEST MOMENTS
“If you chose the move, at some level you are ready, but at some level you're not - embrace not being ready.”
“Each move is unique, each situation, each human is unique. So, the context for each move will vary.”
“For each and every person, something materializes that was unforeseen, that is an opportunity.”
“Whatever journey you're on, I invite you to just embrace it like that.”
