Finding home with Jasmine Okocha, Founder of The Jazzy Nation
Show Notes

What does home mean when you live in a new place? Can you ever go home again, truly home once you leave?

On today's episode, I talk to The Jazzy Nation founder Jasmine Okocha, a traveler and expat who has lived in Morocco and India, and is currently based in Washington DC with her husband Gozie, a United States Diplomat, while they await the news of his next assignment abroad. 

You’ll hear her story of moving abroad without having ever even traveled abroad before, and what it’s like to move back home after every assignment that her Diplomat husband completes. 

This is a beautiful conversation about home and whether you can ever go back again. It's about how hard it can be to adjust,  homesickness, reverse culture shock, and how, if given a choice, we'd do it all again, no matter what. As serial expats, we learn to find home within ourselves.
