Born from our years together in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, Spilling the Chai brings a close circle of friends together to share the raw, real, and sometimes ridiculous truths of life brewed abroad — from culture shock to connection, from foreign to familiar. Sometimes heartfelt, sometimes hilarious — always honest. Whether you’ve lived it, are living it, or are just curious, we’re here to tell stories that enlighten, infused with sass.

Episode 3: All-American Gals

mardi 8 septembre 2026 • Durée 50:08

What does it mean to be “All-American” when you no longer live in America?

In this episode, Melissa is joined by Liz Griesmer and Brenda Hershey to talk about identity, culture, and all the things you don't realize are uniquely American until you leave.

From habits we've picked up abroad to seeing our home country through a completely different lens, we explore whether living overseas has made us feel more American, less American, or something else entirely.

Episode 2: The Secret Appeal of the Hardship Duty Station

mardi 25 août 2026 • Durée 01:03:35

Why would anyone choose to live and work somewhere most people would avoid—and why do so many keep going back?

In this episode of Spilling the Chai, Melissa is joined by Aziz Dabboussii and Theresa Höffling to explore life in hardship duty stations around the world. They discuss the unexpected challenges, friendships, adventures, and sense of purpose that come with these assignments—and why some people become hooked on the lifestyle.

From family reactions to generators, Wi-Fi, and local food, we unpack what outsiders often misunderstand about hardship postings and what you sacrifice along the way.

Because sometimes, the hardest places give you the best stories.

Episode 1: Finding Your Community

mardi 4 août 2026 • Durée 52:44

Finding Your Community

Moving abroad means more than packing your bags—it often means leaving behind the people who know you best and starting from scratch. But somehow, between shared meals, chance encounters, and stepping outside our comfort zones, strangers can become lifelong friends.

In our debut episode of Spilling the Chai, Melissa sits down with Maylis Bezuidenhoudt and Mona Alt to talk about what it really takes to build a sense of belonging far from home. Together, they share stories of lonely first weeks, unexpected friendships, the bittersweet reality of constantly saying goodbye, and how their understanding of "community" has changed through life abroad.

Whether you've moved across the world, across the country, or you're simply looking for connection where you are, this conversation is a reminder that community isn't something you find—it's something you build, one person at a time.

Grab a cup of chai and join the conversation. 🍵

This is a podcast about the stories we don't always tell. The honest conversations, unexpected moments, and reflections that come from building a life far from home.

Each episode, we'll explore a different topic through real, unfiltered conversations with people living and working around the world. We'll talk about the challenges, the funny moments, the friendships, the culture shocks, and everything in between.

So, put the kettle on, grab a cup of chai, and come join the conversation.

If you enjoy what we're doing and would like to support the podcast, you can tip us a chai at Ko-fi: Spilling the Chai. Every chai helps us keep these conversations brewing.
