Building a New Home Across Borders (w/JeeSong Arkoi & Heidi Toresen ) [Ep. #13]
In this episode, Heidi & JeeSong reveal how they went from mutual friends to partners facing the adventure of building a new life—in Ireland, not Norway or Liberia. Facing tough visa delays and big decisions, they chose each other first and leapt into the unknown together.
Expect:
• Funny stories about awkward first meetings and cultural quirks
• Honest talk about real challenges—loneliness, new jobs, and missing family
• Smart advice for couples: how to find common ground, blend traditions, and create connection anywhere on earth
Their journey isn’t perfect—and that’s what makes it inspiring. By relying on gratitude, open communication, and always focusing on their shared vision, Heidi & JeeSong turned uncertainty into the adventure of a lifetime.
Ready to be inspired by the courage and heart it takes to start from scratch—together? Tune in for a conversation filled with hope, humor, and super-practical takeaways for anyone considering a leap of faith in love.
