Living in Spain? Figuring Life Out As You Go?

Hi everyone! I’m Rencee, a Trinidadian living in Spain, and I recently started a podcast called I Thought I’d Know By Now.

It’s a personal storytelling and reflection podcast about all those parts of adulthood we somehow thought we’d have figured out by now. ????

I talk about moving abroad, building a life in Spain, independence, friendships, dating and relationships, faith, grief, confidence, changing as a person, career decisions, starting over, and the unexpected lessons that come from simply trying to make a life for yourself somewhere new.

A lot of my stories are shaped by my experience of leaving the Caribbean and creating a life here in Spain—the plans that worked, the ones that absolutely DID NOT ????, and the moments when life took me somewhere completely different from where I thought I was going.

There are currently 8 episodes, with the newest, “Keep It Pushing,” asking a question I think a lot of people living abroad can relate to:

What if nothing happens… and you just know?

What if a job, city, relationship, friendship or chapter isn’t terrible—you simply know it’s time for something different?

If you enjoy honest conversations, personal stories, a little humour and figuring life out together, I’d love for you to listen. ????

I Thought I’d Know By Now
Because apparently adulthood did NOT come with the instruction manual I was expecting. ????
