Expats in Sweden - a podcast from Turning Point
We work as therapists at Turning Point – Swedish International Counseling Center in Stockholm. We started this podcast to further reach out and support the international expat community in Sweden. Our aim is to discuss different topics that are of common concerns for expats with the guidance of experienced therapists and evidence-based interventions. Our colleagues will share their insights and knowledge from their psychotherapeutic work. Our podcast will also include interviews with expats regarding their experience of living abroad in accordance with the topics we address.

Episode 3
Today we will talk about how cultural differences can influence your well-being in a new environment. What is culture? What do we bring with us when we try to adapt to a new environment? We talk about social norms and how acceptable behaviour varies from country to country. You will hear interviews with Benedetta from Italy and Shane from Ireland. They share their experience of adjusting to Sweden.
(We do apologize for the delay with this episode which was due to Veronica getting corona twice in the last two months. )
