Meet Courtney Bowden, the dynamic creator of Black Expat Stories, a multimedia platform chronicling the real-life journeys of Black expats around the world. Courtney shares what led her from Michigan to the sun-soaked shores of Playa del Carmen, Mexico, and how a desire for ease, freedom, and authenticity shaped her relocation journey.

With a rich background in marketing, media, and storytelling, Courtney brings a unique lens to life abroad. She opens up about building a creative life in Mexico, cultivating a meaningful community, and using her platform to elevate voices that often go unheard. This episode is a powerful reflection on what it means to live with purpose and to tell stories that matter.

What happens when a high-powered executive recruiter decides he's had enough of America’s grind—and makes a bold move abroad?

In this episode of the Blaxit Global Podcast, I sit down with Rory Verrett, founder of Protégé Search and the Protégé Leadership Academy, to explore his powerful journey from corporate boardrooms to a more peaceful life in Lisbon, Portugal.

We talk about:

• The school violence that became the final tipping point for his Blaxit
• Why traditional success no longer felt fulfilling
• How he redefined purpose and peace outside of the U.S.
• His advice for Black professionals navigating Trump 2.0, layoffs, and the rollback of DEI
• How to position yourself for global opportunities in this shifting landscape

Whether you’re dreaming of living abroad, thinking about your next career move, or just looking for inspiration to reclaim your peace—this conversation is for you.

🌍 Tap in and be inspired to write your own global chapter.
