The Relocated Self: A Guide for Expat Partners
A life abroad changes everything. Many accompanying partners feel the impact in ways they never expected. Careers pause. Identity blurs. Motivation wavers. The relationship with a partner can feel uneven. Parenting takes more energy. Some days you feel grateful for moving, but others feel strangely hollow.
My new book The Relocated Self book explains why these shifts happen and offers practical ways to feel more anchored. It brings the emotional experience of the trailing spouse (or expat accompanying partners) into clear view and gives practical guidance that will help you feel like yourself again.
I wrote The Relocated Self after decades of listening to expat partners describe the same questions:
Why do I feel so unsettled?
Where did my confidence and drive go?
How can we work on our relationship?
Why does this move seem harder on me than on my partner?
How do I build a life here that feels real?
The book brings together clinical insight, lived experience, and simple tools that help the reader understand their reactions and rebuild a sense of direction.
