215: From Paradise to Plot Twist

Whew! In this episode, I’m spilling ALL the tea on our recent "island life" adventure that had me ready to pack up and peace outta the U.S. — until reality slapped me in the face with $8 spaghetti sauce, random power outages, and dengue fever from mosquitoes?! 😳

After dreaming for years about moving abroad, my hubby got a pharmacy job offer on a Caribbean island — and we thought this was our “expat era.” But babyyyy, from overpriced groceries and trash-hauling DIYs to military showers and trailers-as-hospitals, the island life had me screaming "GIRL, STOP PLAYIN!"

💡 Tune in as I share the laughs, lessons, and God’s not-so-subtle reminder that just because it looks good, doesn’t mean it’s for you.

In this episode:

• Our attempt to live that dreamy "passport princess" life
• What nobody tells you about moving to the Caribbean
• How being grateful for what you already have is the real flex
• Why trusting God’s plan over your Pinterest board is essential!

👑 Whether you’re planning your next escape or just curious about what it’s really like to live abroad — this episode will have you clutching your WiFi and air conditioning, sis.
