#153 When the World Feels Like It’s On Fire: Fear Is Not a Move Abroad Plan
Tue Feb 03 2026
Many Americans are feeling scared and desperate to leave the U.S. right now, and that fear makes sense. In this episode, we slow the panic and talk about how to move abroad intentionally, not reactively, so your move feels empowering instead of traumatic.
We also discuss the important distinction between running away from the life you have versus running toward the life you want.
In This Episode:
Why fear-driven moves often feel heavy, rushed, and unsatisfyingA powerful question to clarify whether you truly want to leave (or you feel like you have to)How shifting from “I have to leave” to “I want to leave” restores agencyThe “first-not-forever” strategy for moving quickly without losing alignmentHow to use stepping-stone countries, easier visas, and interim plans to stay on trackYou don’t need to flee your life. You get to choose it. And you deserve a move abroad that feels intentional, expansive, and truly yours. If you’re ready to create a calm, clear, actionable plan, support is available.
