Mental Health Without Borders: The Global Wellness Podcast with Dr. Lindsay Frey
Why This Podcast?
This podcast is dedicated to exploring mental health and wellness through an international lens, fostering conversations that connect us across cultures.
Mental health is a universal experience, yet every culture approach wellness, balance, and healing differently. As someone deeply passionate about mental health and personal well-being, I have always been fascinated by how people worldwide navigate their emotional, psychological, and spiritual health. Through traveling, meeting new people, and experiencing different cultures, I’ve learned that there’s no single approach to wellness—each culture brings unique perspectives that can enrich our understanding.
That’s why I created this podcast—to bring therapists, wellness professionals, and mental health advocates from around the world into meaningful conversations about how we can learn from each other, grow together, and expand our global view of mental well-being.

Where Do I Belong? Identity, EFT, and the Third Culture Kid Experience with Eleni Vardaki from Greece
In this heartfelt and insightful episode, we sit down with Eleni Vardaki, a Therapeutic Coach with a background in Education and research from Cambridge University. Eleni specializes in EFT Tapping to support teens and adults with stress, anxiety, identity confusion, and academic pressure—especially those navigating life between cultures.
As a Third Culture Kid (TCK) herself, Eleni opens up about her early childhood in Zimbabwe, her Greek heritage, and the unique way her own attachment story shaped her view of identity and belonging.
In this conversation, we explore:
• What it means to grow up between cultures—and how it shapes identity
• How EFT Tapping helps with stress regulation, emotional clarity, and academic performance
• The emotional experience of being a cross-cultural child and adult
• The surprising ways caregiving, body memory, and cultural practices can impact attachment and identity Eleni brings a globally minded, emotionally attuned perspective to her work, blending personal story with science and compassion. Whether you’re a TCK, raising one, or simply passionate about identity and healing across cultures—this conversation will leave you reflecting deeply.
