They always say "hindsight is 20/20" and while there aren't many things I'd do differently if I moved abroad again, there are some things I wish I knew back then. In this episode, I’ll break down what I’d do differently and what would have been helpful to know from the beginning of trying to move abroad.
Highlights from the Episode:
Make the Decision and Stick to It
Commit to the move and be prepared for some pushback from others. Find your “why” and lean on it when doubt surfaces.Choose Your Destination
Get clear on where you want to go. Research places that align with your ideal lifestyle, or even plan a short visit to get a sense of everyday life there.
Sort Out the Visa
Find a visa that matches your work or lifestyle goals without overanalyzing options. Avoid getting stuck in decision fatigue, which can delay your move.
Pick a Move Date
Set a timeline and distinguish between essential tasks and excuses that can hold you back. Sometimes, the perfect time never arrives.
Stay Committed with a Plan
Map out your steps and set small weekly goals to keep moving forward. Whether it’s finalizing a checklist or setting up a calendar block, structure will help you make it happen.
