Ep 6: Are You Becoming More Dependent Than You Realise?
Update: 2025-08-26
Description
We’re kicking off a brand-new mini-series on the subtle ways diplomatic life can quietly shift you into dependency- on a person, a system, or a lifestyle- without you even noticing.
In this first conversation, we unpack:
- One of the first small, everyday signs that you might be sliding into a more dependent role
- How it affects your sense of identity, autonomy, and confidence
- The role that location, lifestyle, and partner dynamics play in reinforcing it
- Simple and practical tools to start reclaiming your independence and empowerment
This isn’t about judgement, it’s about awareness. Because once you can see the patterns, you can start to choose differently.
