Blaxit Global
Welcome to Blaxit Global, a bi-weekly seasonal podcast that explores the transformative journeys of Black expats who chose freedom over fear and purpose over pressure.
Hosted by Chrishan Wright, who made her own Blaxit from the U.S. to Portugal, the show features candid conversations with trailblazers across the African diaspora who’ve left the grind behind to build intentional lives—and thrive abroad.
Each episode offers real stories, practical guidance, and powerful reflections on topics like systemic oppression, cultural transition, financial independence, and identity. Whether you're dreaming of your own Blaxit or already abroad, this podcast is your trusted guide for reclaiming your time, energy, and joy—across borders.
You’ve heard the term—now be inspired by the movement.

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this heartfelt reunion episode of the Blaxit Global podcast, I sit down with Nicole Barrett, owner of The Saudade Life and one of the original members of the Blaxit Global Passport community. Nicole shares her incredible journey, beginning in Jamaica, where her story was shaped, to the U.S., where she spent 30 years, and finally to Seixal, Portugal, where she’s building her dream life.
Nicole opens up about navigating profound loss, including the passing of both her parents and her own courageous battle with breast cancer. We also delve into her ambitious project: a gut renovation of a building she purchased in Seixal that reflects her passion and resilience.
Join us as we reminisce about our shared move to Portugal in 2023 and explore Nicole's inspiring story of transformation, loss, and the beauty of creating a life abroad. Whether you’re considering making a global move or seeking stories of perseverance, this episode will leave you deeply moved and motivated.

Season 7 begins June 19th. A powerful conversation about freedom, expansion, possibility, and the quiet awakening happening among Black women around the world.
Building a life overseas is about more than choosing a country.
It's about choosing yourself.

At some point, the question stops being, "Can I move abroad?"
And becomes, "What's possible for my life?"
Passport is where Black women from around the world come together to explore new possibilities, navigate life abroad, and create lives that feel bigger than the ones they were told to settle for.
Because the goal was never just to move.
The goal is to expand what feels possible.
