Living in France with children is an adventure.
But living in France with kids and no family nearby is something else entirely.
No grandparents to help.
A sick child : you handle it.
The tiredness builds up.
And when rugby schedules, trips, and a partner often away are part of life… you know how much adaptability this life requires.
You organize.
You manage.
You keep going.
But sometimes, there’s that quiet thought:
“I just need help.”
“I just need time for myself.”
This week on the Women Speak French podcast, I’m talking about this reality : the one many expat moms live every day but don’t always say out loud.
Not the perfect Instagram version.
The real one.
Because learning French is also about being able to express your needs, your limits, and your daily life here in France.
