Listen Later

In this honest, deeply relatable episode, Huan and Amanda trade stories and hard-won wisdom about life’s inevitable transitions—from changing jobs and countries to letting go of expectations and control.

We dive into:

  • 🏙️ What it’s really like to leave a job (and an identity), say goodbye to coworkers, and start again—messy feelings included

  • 🌎 The hidden gifts of forced transitions: when moving to new cities or new roles feels hard, but leads to unexpected growth

  • 🧳 Why it’s tempting to blame everything on change—and how shifting your mindset makes all the difference

  • 🤝 Practical tips for settling in: making friends as an adult, finding community in strange places, and why saying “I don’t know” is surprisingly powerful

  • 🧘 The wisdom of knowing what you can change, accepting what you can’t, and having the courage to move forward

Plus: lessons from failed French lessons, friends made on train platforms, why perfectionism gets in the way, and how being open—even to awkward dinners—can turn strangers into friends.

Whether you’re navigating a new city, a new job, or just the growing pains of becoming someone new, this episode is your permission slip to feel all the feelings, learn as you go, and remember: your worth is never tied to a title, a company, or a place.
