Live a Life you Love
I work with Expat Spouses and Partners who are ambitious, hard-working, and want to retain their identity while following their partner’s career around the globe.
I support my clients as they navigate the ups and downs of transitioning to a new life abroad. I empower them with a success mindset to define the life and career that they want and to go after this with passion, focus and confidence.
The Challenge
The role of an Expat Spouse or Partner is an unique one. Life abroad can be stressful, not to mention dull at times! It can feel like you’ve lost a part of yourself whilst following your partner’s career internationally. This can trigger a range of emotions as you and your partner react differently to your new life. And that’s the part nobody tells you about before you leave.
- What is it like to experience the loneliness and anxiety of an Expat Spouse or Partner?
- To what extent are you feeling overwhelmed?
- How is fear and lack of confidence holding you back?
- What does purpose and meaning outside of your relationship look like?
- What if you could find a fulfilling career in a new country?
What if you had someone who has shared your journey and can help?
The Solution
I understand your journey because it was my journey too. I understand that having a confidant (other than your partner) who you can talk, share ideas and process emotions with is vital when you move abroad.
I can help you:
- Through the ups and downs
- Overcome expat paralysis and take charge of your life
- Be more confident, especially when connecting with others
- Bounce back stronger after a bad day
- Find joy and meaning in this adventure
- Build a fulfilling career for yourself
You’ll receive this and so much more!

Case Study

Erin was unhappy although her life looked perfect on paper: a beautiful husband, living abroad, travelling to interesting places, awesome parties, and making new friends. But every night when she went to bed, she had this crushing fear of missing the career boat.
Erin had been a successful trader at a top investment bank before she left New York. She was currently on her 2nd country move and felt that time was passing her by. Her skills were starting to feel old and she was fed-up having to take finance jobs that were not progressing her career. Several business ideas crossed her mind, but she found that she didn’t have the energy to follow through with any of them. Her husband was supportive, but he travelled a lot and often didn’t have the energy or focus to help Erin work through her ideas. She felt overwhelmed and pressurized to make sure any investment or change would take her down the right path. She was stuck and going around in circles.
Erin and I worked together for 6 months, and during this time she became clear on what she loved about working in finance. Together, we helped her face her fears. We uncovered the limiting beliefs that were holding her back and focused on building a positive mindset from which we sparked new perspectives, which helped her reconnect with her professional passion. She is currently finding meaning and purpose in her life through her new business, which is focused on improving financial-literacy for teenagers.
