Immigration is politicized, abstracted, and dehumanized. People are either “others” or “heroes,” but rarely us. What’s missing from most conversations is the “how”: the emotional mechanics of real survival and progress.
We solve that by showing the path and the work.
Immigrant’s Road is a show about where you come from—and what it took to get you here.
Everyone has a number. Maybe you’re a first-generation immigrant. Maybe your great-grandparents crossed an ocean for a shot at something better. Maybe you don’t know the full story. But someone in your lineage made a move that changed everything.
This podcast explores those origin stories—the gritty, honest, sometimes heartbreaking decisions that shaped generations. We talk about why people migrate: for opportunity, for safety, for survival. And we ask what happens after the move, especially for the children and grandchildren who grow up straddling two worlds.

Immigrant’s Road is about remembering where you came from. And realizing you’re closer to someone else’s story than you think.
So… what’s your number?
Immigrant’s Road is brought to you by Global Synergistic Living, Corp. is a tax exempt not-for-profit founded by Gary Seidler and Sheri Laine to engage in thought-provoking conversations, while building a community of learning and wholeness for all individuals.
Gary spent his life behind the curtain amplifying other voices and elevating other thought leaders. That was safe. That was a legacy. Sheri is the wordsmith. The artist. The builder of emotional worlds. Together, they have created a brand that challenges people to confront their own history and rediscover their connection to the immigrant journey.
Gary didn’t ask for the spotlight. But when the stories started pouring in, and the world started fracturing, he realized: If not me, who? If not now, when? So now he speaks. Not because he’s comfortable, but because he refuses to ever “do nothing” again.
Sheri is the Holistic Guide, the Eastern Medicine alchemist balancing the body in the here and now.
Our aim is for wholeness in mind, body and spirit while creating awareness and understanding of our shared world.
Collectively, Gary and Sheri have over 82 years of experience in the Integrative Health, Wellness, Addiction/Recovery, Mental Health and Self-Help fields. Their lifelong journeys come with invaluable connections to other professionals who share their knowledge and experience, passion and commitment, and genuine desire to give back.
