#75 What if Moving Abroad Doesn’t Fix Your Life? Let’s Talk About It.

“What if I move abroad and it doesn’t fix my life?”

If you wake up at 2am with this thought coursing through your mind, you’re not alone. Many people dream of starting over in a new country, hoping it will bring them the happiness or fulfillment they feel is missing. But there’s often a nagging fear: What if I still don’t feel fulfilled? What if the grass isn’t greener on the other side?

In today’s episode, we’re diving headfirst into this fear. We’ll explore why moving abroad might not solve all your problems—and why that’s okay. I’ll share practical advice for finding happiness and fulfillment no matter where you are, along with my personal story as an Enneagram 7 who’s constantly chasing “the next big thing” I'm SURE will make me happy. 

I’ll also share how I struggled with these same feelings while living abroad and how I’ve learned to be present and appreciate the here and now—without the pressure of traditional gratitude lists (because, let’s be honest, those can feel a bit forced).

Bonus: If you’ve been dreaming of moving abroad but still don't have a concrete plan in place to make it happen, my Move Abroad Escape Plan Bootcamp is for you! This 4-day live event will guide you step-by-step in creating a personalized plan for your move—whether it’s choosing the right country, figuring out how to fund your life abroad, or setting a timeline that makes sense.
