This Expat Life - S0 / E101

#99 When a decision stops weighing on you (+ sharing my own!)

Craving more clarity on your chapter? I’m launching something new, something live - and you get to work with me for just €88 (but the price is gradually increasing). We start on March 30th - Join now !

There’s something about when a decision has actually been made. Not just knowing what you want… But actually committing to it and taking the first steps. The weight that will be lifted is huge!

In this episode of This Expat Life, I share what it felt like to return to The Hague knowing I’m closing this chapter and starting a new one soon - and how different everything feels when you’re no longer stuck in indecision.

I talk about the expat waiting room - that in-between phase where life feels “fine,” but something deeper isn’t aligned. A place many expats stay longer than they intend, waiting for clarity that never comes from overthinking.

If you’ve been going back and forth on your next move, this episode will help you understand why it feels so heavy - and what shifts when you finally choose.

Because clarity doesn’t come from waiting. It comes from deciding. And yes, I’m also sharing what I actually decided for my own next chapter! Listen to know where I’m going 👀

And crave that clarity too?

You’re going to love my new mini program Runway: a 2-week intensive where we’re going to work together on lifting that fog and creating more clarity on what’s next for you.

A concise, sweet & short program with 2 live trainings, a hot seat coaching call and a private WhatsApp group for answers to your questions. An ideal way to work with me if you aren’t ready for The Co-Pilot or 1:1 coaching!

We start on March 30th, replays available if you can’t make it live. Right now the investment is just €88 - but it’s gradually going up to €197. So make sure to join now!
