What They Don’t Tell You About Money and Living Abroad | Ep 61

Mickelle Weber

Mickelle welcomes back Alex Ingrim, founder of Liberty Atlantic, for a powerful and grounded conversation on the emotional and financial complexities of building a life abroad. Together, they explore how cross-border living is more than tax codes - it’s a full-spectrum transformation of values, identity, and wealth planning.

Alex shares insight from years of guiding Americans moving to Europe, noting a growing trend of intentional migration driven by more than wanderlust. Whether seeking political alignment, quality of life, or slower rhythms, people are uprooting—and with that comes a need to rethink their “financial backpack.” From culturally embedded tax laws to the emotional weight of money, they explore why planning early and holistically is essential.

Key Moments:

  • Why Taxes Are Cultural – Understanding how local values shape tax codes (and your bottom line).


  • The Myth of the Wealthy Expat – More families and early retirees are making the leap.


  • Mobility with Meaning – Mapping a multi-country life that supports your values.


  • Building Community Abroad – The emotional infrastructure needed for integration.


  • Fellowship over Fear – Why support matters when everything is changing.
