What surprised me the most about relocating was how it affected my entire system. From mental well being to physical reactions. Marie helped me translate all of it into a language such that I understood the transition better and managed to use it as a starting point of something new and meaningful.

Please note: This training is for personal development and is not career related.

Embarking on the expat life opens the door to extraordinary experiences and a fresh perspective on the world. However, it's essential to acknowledge that this journey comes with its share of challenges. Whether you're a first-time mover or an experienced globetrotter, navigating the constant changes and cultural shifts can be overwhelming, impacting your personal and cultural identity.

Despite the perception that expats have an idyllic life, the reality is that adapting to a foreign culture can be complex. Your sense of self might feel shaken, especially if you are an accompanying partner. Questions like "Who am I?" and "Where is home?" become profound as you straddle different worlds.

Remember, life remains life, no matter where you are. Ups and downs are part of the journey, and moving abroad can add some complexity. But don’t worry, in the workshop, you will explore:

  • practical transition strategies to embrace the unfamiliar
  • which problem to attack first and how to approach it
  • how to embrace differences and maintain a sense of self while moving abroad
  • your own purpose, outside of your partner's job and connecting with other internationals who understand you

Join us now and embark on a transformative journey to find purpose and fulfilment in your expat life!
