Join us this week on Two Expats Abroad as we tackle fear, especially the fear of failure in life, business failure, and investment failure. We dive into the CTFAR coaching model (Circumstances, Thoughts, Feelings, Actions, Results) to explore how our mindset shapes our response to setbacks. From reframing failure and lessons learned to overcoming the shame and judgments tied to it, this episode offers insights you might not have considered before. We also discuss how social circles can amplify these pressures, the comfort zone, perceptions others hold about our endeavors, and the courage to break away from toxic influences.

What if the biggest thing holding you back isn’t your circumstances, your resources, or even your location… but your mindset?

In this very first episode of Two Expats Abroad, we explore the hidden cost of living with a fixed mindset — the quiet ways it keeps you stuck, limits your potential, and convinces you to play small. We unpack how shifting into a growth mindset can completely change what you believe is possible, not just for expats or those moving abroad, but for anyone who craves more freedom, impact, and fulfilment.

Drawing on Carol Dweck’s groundbreaking work on fixed vs. growth mindset, plus powerful insights from Dan Sullivan’s book Who Not How, we share our own experiences of getting stuck, hitting walls, and finding new ways forward. These aren’t abstract theories — they’re the real mindset shifts that helped us reframe challenges, break through self-imposed ceilings, and design lives of greater freedom.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• How to recognise when a fixed mindset is holding you back (and why it’s often invisible until you know what to look for)

• Why having the right people around you — people who’ve already walked the path — is essential for breaking through psychological barriers

• The surprising power of asking who, not how, when you want to achieve something big

• The mindset shifts that move you from feeling stuck to building unstoppable momentum toward the life you truly want

If you’ve ever felt like you’re repeating the same patterns, doubting yourself, or hitting a ceiling in your career, relationships, or personal goals, this conversation will hit home. More importantly, it will open your eyes to the truth:

There are no limits to what you can create. No cap. No ceiling. No age that disqualifies you. No excuse that needs to keep you stuck. Any boundaries you feel are self-imposed — and with a growth mindset, you can break free from them.

This is not just about moving abroad, starting fresh, or chasing adventure (though those are part of our story). It’s about realising that your mindset is the key to everything you want in life — freedom, growth, success, and fulfilment.

So whether you’re dreaming about making a big life change, building more independence, or simply stepping into your full potential, this episode is your starting point.
