The Move Abroad Coach Podcast
You didn’t start your business to stay stuck in the same city, the same routine, and the same life you’ve outgrown. You built it for freedom — and now you’re ready to take that freedom overseas. The Move Abroad Coach Podcast is your space for real, unfiltered conversations about building a business and a life you love overseas. Hosted by Richelle Gamlam, founder of Move Abroad Coach who has been living abroad for twelve years, this show blends strategy, mindset, and identity work to help you create a step-by-step freedom plan and finally make your move. Here, we don’t do generic how-to lists or heavily edited episodes. Instead, Richelle shares the coaching, stories, and practical frameworks that help coaches, freelancers, and entrepreneurs move abroad with confidence and alignment. If you’re craving deeper conversations, personalized insight, and the real behind-the-scenes of creating a freedom life, you’ll feel right at home. Come learn how to build a business that supports your freedom, create a concrete plan you can actually implement, and step into the version of you who lives a life you don’t need a vacation from.

#90 How They Did It: Real Stories from Freedom Life Alumni Who Moved Abroad
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week, I’m sharing something special—a panel recording from my last Move Abroad Escape Plan Bootcamp featuring three incredible Freedom Life alumni who have successfully made their dream of moving abroad a reality.
Meet the Panelists:
- Monica: A writing coach who moved her business to Amsterdam along with her husband and their two cats. (Fun Fact: My husband joined her writing coaching program)
- Lisa: A retired digital nomad traveling the world as a pet sitter. Lisa shares her expertise on finances, downsizing, and navigating 30 countries in a year —plus, she’s even pet-sat for me in Georgia!
- Allison: After being let go from her job in the US, Allison made a bold move to Spain to job-hunt on the ground. She quickly landed a position in Germany, navigating the process with her large dog in tow.
These three women faced very different challenges—running a business, finding a full-time job abroad, retiring to travel the world—but each found their way. Their stories are full of real-life advice on moving pets, budgeting, visas, and how to embrace the unexpected.
