Flourish in the Foreign

A Sonic Archive of Black Women’s Migration

Hosted by Christine Job, Flourish in the Foreign is an award-winning podcast that redefines what it means to live well—through the lived experiences of Black women across the diaspora.

What It Is: This isn’t your typical “move abroad” podcast. It’s an oral ethnography. A preservation of culture. A study in intentionality, wellness, and liberation. Each episode is a portal into the nuance, grit, joy, and transformation that comes with living elsewhere.

Now in production. This season, Christine explores aging, sustainability, and longevity abroad—how Black women across generations continue to redefine what it means to live well, far from home.
