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?
