Get the Boots
This is the follow-on podcast from "Transcontinental Overload".
Everyone faces tough times. Some are chosen, others are forced upon us. What matters most is how we respond.
This podcast is about real people who have faced real challenges — setbacks, obstacles, loss, or life-altering changes, such as a move abroad — and found a way forward. Each episode dives into a personal story of resilience, courage, and sometimes transformation. My guests share what they went through, what shifted their mindset, and how they learned not just to survive, but to grow.
If you’ve ever wondered how others manage to rise from difficult moments with new strength and perspective, this is the space for you. Honest conversations. Practical wisdom. Hope for the journey ahead.
I'm Stephanie, and I love talking to people and hearing their stories. Moving on from my old podcast, "Transcontinental Overload", where I talked to guests about their experiences of moving and living abroad, I'm expanding my focus to include those who haven't moved countries. After all, life's challenges hit us all sooner or later, whether we've stayed in one country or not.
Join me as we uncover what it truly means to overcome, and how the toughest moments can sometimes open the door to the strongest versions of ourselves.

52. Sex, Lies & Audiotape: why American teenagers don’t get the full story - with Julia & Jeremiah, the Sexvangelicals
We're going really deep today!
My guests are American family and sex therapists Julia & Jeremiah, who currently live in Utrecht, The Netherlands. They are the founders of "Sexvangelicals - the sex education the church didn't want you to have", and co-host the Sexvangelicals Podcast.
Sex! Religion! Politics! We talk about it all in this episode. Our topics range from sex education (and the lack thereof) at school to differences in parenting depending on which country you grow up in, and the impact of social media on they way we approach sex.
You can find out more about Julia & Jeremiah on Instagram, and make sure to check out their website, where you'll also find the Sexvangelicals Podcast. Their site is an absolute treasure trove of books, links, and recommendations if you want to dig deeper!
The book Jeremiah references is "Not Under My Roof: Parents, Teens, and the Culture of Sex". Highly recommended!
The 2021 documentary I mention but couldn't remember the title of: "Cusp", following a group of teenagers in rural Texas. Watch the trailer here, and read more about the documentary here and here.
