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.

#127 You’re Not Lazy- It’s Resistance: How to Stop Self-Sabotaging Your Dreams with Monica Hay
Moving abroad, starting a business, or even hitting “publish” on your Upwork profile — if you’ve ever found yourself stalling on a dream, you’ve met resistance.
In this episode, I share my own experience of facing resistance during our family’s big move from Georgia to Spain, and I’m joined by Monica Hay — writer, coach, and expert on the psychology of resistance. Monica breaks down why we self-sabotage, how fear hides behind “good reasons” to wait, and the mindset shifts that can get you unstuck and taking action.
Whether you’re moving countries, launching a side hustle, or tackling that passion project you’ve been “too busy” for, this conversation will help you stop spinning your wheels and start making it real.
What you’ll learn:
- Why resistance is not laziness — and why smart, driven people still get stuck
- How comfort zones keep us from stepping into bigger opportunities
- Practical strategies to beat procrastination and self-sabotage
- Why even exciting change can trigger doubt and hesitation
