  • Ep. 5 First Time Being an Expat...Kind Of. (Final episode!)
    Feb 8 2024

    I can’t believe it’s our last episode of First Time Being an Expat…Kind Of.

    Today, Matt and I are going through our final pros and cons list together and are talking about our takeaways from this incredible, life changing experience. Again, we can’t express enough the amount of gratitude we have for being able to have this kind of experience while so many terrible things are happening around the world right now. The Netherlands holds a very special place in our hearts.

    I hope this series and this final episode are helpful for anyone considering moving abroad and thanks again to everyone who has cheered us on during this adventure and listened to this series.

    Dank je wel en tot ziens iedereen!

  • First Time Learning a New Language with 8x Polyglot Jo Franco
    Nov 8 2023

    Today I'm talking with JoClub CEO, World Traveler and 8x Polyglot Jo Franco about what it REALLY takes to become multi-lingual. She dropped so many quotable moments in this episode I think I may need to make a highlight reel so we can all come back to it to stay inspired to keep pushing through when we hit that point where our brains feel like they're melting from learning a new language.

    Jo makes language learning an adventure and I know she's going to inspire you to become a polyglot so you too can experience all of the incredible things that come with speaking outside of your native tongue.

    Enjoy First Time Learning a New Language with Jo Franco!

  • First Time Examining Your Breasts with Nurse Practitioner Melissa Shiozaki
    Oct 17 2023

    Welcome back First Timers! I’m so happy to be back with season 2! We’re here and we’re kicking things off with a very important episode on breast health for breast cancer awareness month.

    I’m talking with Melissa Shiozaki , one of the APRN’s I see twice a year to stay on top of my breast health due to family history of breast cancer, about how to do a breast exam on yourself, what it’s like to get one by a professional, a bunch of things we can do to have good breast health and also disseminate fear.

    If you’ve got boobs, you need to hear this episode and if you know someone who has boobs, you need to share it with them. So that basically covers everyone. I hope you learn a ton about your tatas today on “First Time Examining Your Breasts”.

  • 1 Year of Making a Podcast!
    May 25 2023

    It's been one year of my little podcast and I couldn't be prouder! First Time for Everything has been such a joy to create and it's ALSO been A LOT of working being the sole person in charge of booking, coming up with questions, interviewing, editing, graphic design, distribution, music supervising, marketing, and on and on....
    What a learning curve!
    This episode is a short and sweet one to recap what it's been like hosting the show. Thank you SO much to everyone who has listened and shared episodes. My hope is that you are inspired to grow, learn new things and step out of your comfort zone with every episode.
    Thank you thank you thank you for being a #FirstTimer with me!
