Grief Abroad: How to Handle Tragedy When You’re Far from Home - from Nepal to the United States

What happens when tragedy strikes back home but you’re living miles away? With all the unrest around the world in the last few weeks, political uprisings, protests, and the loss of many lives, in this episode, we explore the unique pain of grieving from afar—the helplessness of not being physically present, the cultural expectations around mourning, and the loneliness that can come with loss abroad. You’ll hear: * Why grief feels heavier when you’re overseas * Cross-cultural differences in mourning and expectations * Practical ways to process loss and honor loved ones from a distance * How to find support and hope even when you can’t be home If you’ve ever faced grief, loss, or tragedy while abroad—or you’re supporting someone who has—this episode offers both comfort and practical steps to help you heal and stay connected.

Burnout Abroad? How to Balance Rest and Productivity

Is it better to rest or keep hustling when you’re living abroad? In this episode, we explore how different cultures view rest and productivity—and why burnout can feel even heavier when you’re adapting cross-culturally. You’ll learn practical rhythms for growth, ways to protect your energy, and how to balance relationships with self-care. Plus, in our “Dear Saathi, ke bhayo?” segment, we dive into a real-life dilemma: do you say yes to community or prioritize rest?
