Podcasts about foreign country

And even when he reached the land God promised him, he lived there by faith—for he was like a foreigner, living in tents. And so did Isaac and Jacob, who inherited the same promise. (Hebrews 11:9 NLT) Among the endless parade of articles you can find online are variations of the “fish out of water” theme: “20 Ways to Spot an American in a Foreign Country”; “10 Eye-Opening Things I Learned When I Moved to Portugal”; “5 Surprising Differences Between Living in New Zealand and Living in Australia”; and so on. The idea behind them is that our citizenship marks us in certain ways, that citizens from a country have certain similarities. In Philippians 3:20, Paul says Christians “are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives” (NLT). In Hebrews 11:9–10, the author says that, as citizens of Heaven, one of the things we have in common is a foreigner status in this world. God calls His people to walk a thin line. We're to influence the world without being influenced by it. To care about the things happening around us without being consumed by them. To make a home here without getting too comfortable in it or too possessive about it. To take care of our daily responsibilities while keeping our focus on things above. To be salt and light in this world without getting caught up in power plays, territorial spats, and political machinations. To care enough about the people in this life to make sure that they join us in the next. Don't think for a second that Christians have no place here. Or that our contributions as foreigners are minimal at best. Imagine how our world would be if there were no believers standing up for what's right or speaking out against what's wrong. God's people are the restraining force. Once we're removed, once the church is taken out of the equation, caught up to meet the Lord in the air at the Rapture, all hell will literally break loose. Until that time, however, we will make our presence felt. And we will remember that our citizenship is in Heaven—and that what awaits us there is beyond compare. Paul wrote, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him” (1 Corinthians 2:9 NLT). As you get older, the promise of eternal life becomes more and more appealing. When I first became a Christian, what interested me as a seventeen-year-old kid was that I could fill a hole in my heart, that I could find meaning and purpose in my life. But now, as a seventy-two-year-old kid, I rejoice in the fact that when I leave this world, I'll enter God's kingdom. I'll go to Heaven, where my citizenship is. — Listen to the Greg Laurie Podcast Become a Harvest PartnerSupport the show: https://harvest.org/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Here are the three big things to know this hour—   Number One— A looming Longshoremen Union strike could cost America $5 Billion dollars a day—and bring supply chains to a grinding halt—meaning a big pinch at a time when people are already worn out by inflation—   Number Two— John Kerry—the relic socialist—has come out of his cave—BUT is still in mental hibernation—as he is advocating for the end of the First Amendment and the advent of a Ministry of Truth—   Number Three— More than 1,000 Americans are missing today—and no its not in some foreign country— in fact its in a critical swing state—North Carolina—BUT our leaders are nowhere to be found—

Hear how Rohan was brought in, and how he never would've expected the vast, global scale of the investigation.  Bribes worth millions, a string of dramatic Melbourne raids, and tension between Rohan, the AFP and the ever powerful Australian Reserve Bank….See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It might be the sense of achievement from driving results, it might be in terms of developing people or developing yourself, or it might be for the money.In the context of involving everyone, ask yourself: do you understand the people you work with enough?

If I were to tell this story in the style of its subject, I would start out something like this: “Twas in the spring of 2020.”

George Washington really wanted to win the Revolutionary War.  He was desperate for it, thank God. “Insanity in individuals is something rare - but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.”  -Friedrich Nietzsche I stumbled upon a #MeToo video from 2018 and it's as foreign to me now as a video of the Salem Witch Trials would be.  What were people thinking?  Louis CK asked women if he could masturbate in front of them.  Love it or hate it it's not the work of Genghis Khan.  But that's how it was treated.  Louis inspired the same hatred as a Saddam Hussein did. "... a ravenous machine seeking new fears, new terrors. I'm telling you, this is the way modern society works—by the constant creation of fear. And there is no countervailing force. There is no system of checks and balances, no restraint on the perpetual promotion of fear after fear after fear. . . ."  -Michael Chricton

Moving to a foreign country is a daunting undertaking, not one to be taken lightly. Do you speak the language? Are you ready for new customs and a new culture? Do you have a support system in place for when things get tough?But it's not all doom & gloom - the opportunities to expand your knowledge of the world, to learn about life "somewhere else" ... that's an exciting draw for many.The most important thing is to go into it with your eyes open. Be ready for things NOT to turn out as you planned; be ready to make changes as you go.

She  shares with us what that felt like for her, what she needed to do in order to feel well supported by her partner, and also offers tips and suggestions to others who are in the same situation. This is a valuable episode which I encourage you to share with anyone who is living abroad and would appreciate hearing how they can help themselves to have a positive experience of birth - despite having to navigate a new maternity system and cope in labour using a second language. If you would like to buy a copy of either of the books that accompany this podcast please go to your online bookseller or visit Amazon:-Labour of Love - The Ultimate Guide to Being a Birth Partner - click here:-https://bit.ly/LabourofloveThe Art of Giving Birth - Five Key Physiological Principles - https://amzn.to/3EGh9dfPregnancy Journal for 'The Art of Giving Birth' - Black and White version https://amzn.to/3CvJXmOPregnancy Journal for 'The Art of Giving Birth'- Colour version https://amzn.to/3GknbPFYou can also purchase a copy via my website - www.birthability.co.uk Follow me on Instagram @theultimatebirthpartner @birthabilityBook a 1-2-1 session with Sallyann - https://linktr.ee/SallyannBeresford Please remember that the information shared with you in this episode is solely based on my own personal experiences as a doula and the private opinions of my guests, based on their own experiences.

In this episode, Rosalina and Shauna are joined by Andrea, a young breast cancer survivor and healthcare advocate of Mexican-German descent (her mother is Mexican, and her father is German). The conversation explores Andrea's personal journey with breast cancer, which began during the COVID-19 pandemic while she was studying for her Masters in Budapest, Hungary. She shares the challenges she faced in managing her diagnosis in a foreign country where she didn't speak the language, and the complexities of returning to the US due to COVID-19 restrictions. Upon her return to the US, Andrea faced some significant challenges with her healthcare insurance, and she found that the support she was hoping to receive from her parents during the early stages of her diagnosis fell short, leaving her to navigate the diagnosis alone.As she acclimated to life back in the US, she became involved in a health literacy project aimed at improving patient outcomes in the Latino community. The episode highlights Andrea's contributions to the health literacy project in Orange County, California, which aimed to educate the Latino community, especially Latinas, about women's health and the importance of mammograms, and other related health topics. Both Rosalina and Andrea, who are both Latinas and first-gens, shed light on cultural barriers, healthcare disparities, and the stigma surrounding cancer and preventative care within the Latino community.You can follow Andrea at @andreahansocEpisode Timestamps: [00:01:19] Housekeeping Items/Updates[00:05:04] Getting Diagnosed in a Foreign Country[00:10:08] Coping Mechanism[00:13:49 ]Insurance is Such a Bitch[00:19:08] Andrea's Relationship with Parents[00:30:00] Health Literacy Project[00:32:51] Why Aren't Latinas Getting Mammograms?[00:37:10] Cultural Barriers & The Latino Community[00:44:35] Fear of Discrimination[00:49:07] How The Kelly Clarkson Show Impacted our Parents[00:49:07] Health Literacy Project & Cafecito Session[00:58:54] Nutritionist Strategies To Encourage Healthier Choices[01:01:41] Why Health Equity Is Important[01:04:53] Health Equity: Affordability and AccessIf you enjoy this episode, please share it with your friends.

Today on the show, author Christos Tsiolkas with a recent piece from The Monthly. “The Past is a foreign country: they do things differently there” – is the memorable opening line of L.P. Hartley's 1953 novel, The Go-Between. It's a line that has stuck with Christos Tsiolkas since he read it in high school - and a sentiment that has made him reflect on his life, his migrant parents' lives, and the value of creating foreign worlds through fiction.  Christos Tsiolkas will read his story, ‘The Past is a Foreign Country', after a short conversation with 7am host Ange McCormack.  Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: Author, Christos Tsiolkas

In this episode of the Dream Retirement in Mexico podcast, host Risa Morimoto is joined by guest journalist and author Janet Blaser.  She shares her experiences living in Mazatlan, Mexico.  Despite facing challenges that come with living in a foreign country, including culture and a language barrier, Janet expresses her happiness and enjoyment living in Mazatlan. Mazatlan is described as a busy city with a working-class feel surrounded by the Sonora Desert. Janet advises listeners to do personal research and check expat Facebook pages to find the right place to settle. She also discusses the rental process and what you need to do in order to successfully find your new home. Janet emphasizes that an apartment in Mexico may not come with appliances, so tenants have to purchase their own. Regarding safety, she believes that the negative portrayal of Mexico in the US media is exaggerated and highlights that millions of people live normal lives unaffected by the country's crises.  Janet shares that living in Mexico can offer a higher quality of life with less stress and financial worries.  She edited an anthology of essays, "Why We Left: An Anthology of American Women Expats" for anyone interested in the relocation experience, not just American women despite the title.  The episode concludes with an overview of Mazatlan's attractions, including its beautiful beaches, colonial section, and vibrant expat community.   Key Moments:  [00:05:17] Mazatlan: Non-touristy shrimp port on Pacific Coast. [00:10:05] One bedroom apartment with appliances for sale. [00:13:17] Low cost of living in Mexico; medical/dental tourism. [00:15:03] Renting in Mexico: No documents needed, references not checked. Security deposit required. Tenant responsible for some maintenance. Good rental experiences. [00:19:48] Americans often exaggerate their importance, but living in Mexico is generally safe and normal.  [00:24:53] Challenges of living abroad: water shortages, communication issues, language barrier, limited shopping options. [00:31:48] Crossing the border can be complicated. [00:35:31] Mazatlan isn't quiet, but has options nearby. [00:38:39] An anthology of American women expats. About Janet Blaser:  Janet Blaser, a journalist originally from in Santa Cruz, California, found herself at a crossroads when the advent of the internet impacted her publishing career. Realizing that she had to think outside the box to secure her future, Janet took a pre-planned vacation to Mazatlan, Mexico, and instantly fell in love with the city's relaxed vibe and cultural offerings. Inspired by the influx of foreigners who were unaware of the vibrant cultural events happening in Mazatlan, Janet saw an opportunity to start a business that would connect expats with the local scene. Drawing on her publishing expertise and ability to attract an audience, she embarked on a new venture. As a single mother with three children, Janet was determined to create a stable life for herself, and her decision to pursue this business opportunity proved to be a turning point in her journey.   How to Connect Janet Blaser :  https://www.instagram.com/thejanetblaser/ https://www.facebook.com/TheJanetBlaser   Buy Janet's Book Why We Left: An Anthology of American Women Expats here   Please note that we add affiliate links from time to time.  This comes at no cost to you.  It allows us to continue to produce podcasts like this for free.  We appreciate your support!   Interested in learning more about moving to Mexico?

Rep. Austin Scott says Biden's been so bad, he's done something no one else could do. He's united Republicans on the border, on debt and the deficit. He says we have to keep this country together until we can get a President who will exercise some sanity with regard to the country's policies. President Trump has been hunted by both federal law enforcement agencies and District Attorneys. It's unconscionable that it's happened inside America. If you read the Durham Report, it proves what most Americans have known for years, that Adam Schiff and the Intel Committee ran a flat out hoax investigation of the President for years and there has been no consequence for anyone who did these things to President Trump. Because it happened to Trump, nothing happened. If FBI leadership was involved in things that helped skew the election, American citizens need to know that and there should be consequences. If all these intel community officials are engaged in a cover-up for Joe Biden, Americans need to know and there have to be consequences. Unfortunately, if you're not watching Conservative news, Scott says you're not seeing this so the vast majority of America doesn't see what's happening in their own country. GUEST: REP.
