Finding Yourself in Midlife: An Expat in Paris with Susan Hodgson
Watch the podcast, above, or listen below.
Susan Hodgson is an Irish ex-pat coach helping women navigate new territory with their drinking amidst the challenges of living abroad and trying to find that elusive feeling of “home”. She lives near Paris with her French husband and three kids who enjoy correcting her grammar and complaining about holidays back to the Donegal rain.
Susan shares her story of becoming alcohol-free, and Susan and I discuss:
- the common misconceptions of expat life,
- why it can make drinking less more challenging for women,
- the difference between what you do and who you are,
- Mommy wine culture abroad,
- learning to feel emotions instead of numbing them,
- the concept of “home” and how to find it anywhere,
- and discovering yourself in midlife.
This is a lovely conversation with an even lovelier human. Enjoy!
