Thriving abroad is something I expected to just come to me. Spoiler alert: it sure as hell didn't.
I had to learn how to thrive abroad, by first struggling in silence. I spent years living like this, convinced that this was just what living abroad was like.
Eventually I hit a breaking point, of, enough is enough. I couldn't stand facing a future that looked like my present.
And something truly spectacular happened...
I started to thrive abroad instead of just existing. And it's my life's work to teach it to you, so you can experience in a few months what took me years to learn.
I had a serious wake up call during the pandemic. I realized that if I didn't start to make some serious changes, then I was never going to live my dream life abroad that deep down I really wanted.
I started journaling everyday. I hired a coach. I quit misfit jobs, and pursued the career path I really wanted.
I learned my values, and I started to live my life based on them.
In reality, this took me about four years, because I was learning as I went, unaware that what I was doing was creating a life-changing roadmap to living my best life abroad.
I turned my experience of changing my life abroad, along with my coaching certification to coach others to their best life abroad in a few months - instead of the years it took me.
I love it! My husband thinks having so many journals around the apartment is annoying. But, hey! A girl has a lot of thoughts! I have been journaling everyday for the past 4 years and counting, and it's changed my life in so many beautiful ways.
It's kind of odd how much popcorn I can eat. I have to admit, I'm not one who likes sharing my popcorn! It's nearly impossible for me to watch my favorite shows without my beloved popcorn. And just to be clear, when I say popcorn I am referring to the kernel kind!
Okay, not music with lyrics though! I cannot work for the life of me without a chill, calm, lyric-free music playlist in the background. Maybe it's the introvert in me, but it's rare to find me deep in my work without my headphones & chill playlist on!
