Jessica Govern and Claire Naughton have both lived in Strasbourg, France for eight years. Both are originally from the Chicago area. Both moved abroad in their early twenties with no financial plan, no visa strategy, and no idea they were staying. This episode is their honest accounting of what that actually cost them, and what they got right.

Govern produces the Passport to Wealth podcast and runs a social media management business in France. Naughton works as a fractional CMO and marketing strategist. Together they cover the financial, professional, and personal realities of long-term expat life in France that structured expert interviews rarely reach.
