DAMChats 21) Revisiting DAM Housing

It’s holiday time, and Eva and Maren are taking a break, so we’re revisiting some of our most popular episodes—the ones that have resonated deeply with you, sparked connections, and offered words that help you feel seen in your parenting journey.

Becoming a parent is a beautiful, challenging, and often unpredictable experience. We all go through struggles at different points—sometimes alongside you, sometimes a bit ahead, and sometimes we’re here when you need to revisit those important conversations.

In this episode, we revisit the housing challenges that so many international families face, a topic that has sparked a lot of discussions. Housing stress can cause frustration, confusion, exhaustion, and even heartbreak, especially when bids don’t get accepted or when the search for a place to call home becomes overwhelming. We dive deep into how housing uncertainty impacts expat families and how you can manage these stressors while keeping your family’s well-being in mind.

How has your experience been? Whether you’re still in the search or have recently moved, this episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the rollercoaster that is finding a home abroad.
