Doors to The Co-Pilot are now open!  This program is for all overthinking expats who are ready for their new chapter. Sign up by the 15th!


Have you ever found yourself lying awake at night, whispering the question: “Should I stay or should I go?” I bet you have!

In this solo episode of This Expat Life, I dive into one of the biggest dilemmas expats face: the tug-of-war between staying where you are, moving on to a new chapter, or returning home. What I’ve seen through my coaching (and lived myself) is that this question isn’t just about location - it’s about identity, belonging, and the version of yourself you want to grow into.

Together we’ll explore:

 ✨ The Expat Paradox: why life abroad can look perfect on the outside but feel unfulfilled inside

 ✨ The Expat Dilemma: how one decision about work, relationships, or location can spiral into a web of options

 ✨ The 3 most common ways this dilemma shows up for expats

 ✨ Why overthinking keeps you stuck - and how decisions don’t have to take years

If you’re stuck at a crossroads in your expat life and wondering which path is truly right for you, this episode is for you.

And need a little more help?
