Feeling In-Between

Do you ever feel like you belong everywhere… and nowhere at the same time? In this week’s episode, we unpack the emotional tug-of-war that can happen after a move abroad. The nostalgia. The overstimulation. The strange realization that life back home has moved on, while your new life still feels unfamiliar. We explore why this “in-between” season can feel noisy and unsettling, especially for parents who are holding both their own transition and their family’s. We talk about identity shifts, cultural integration, and the quiet ways belonging builds over time, often in small, unexpected moments. This episode is about understanding that feeling unsettled doesn’t mean you don’t belong. It means you’re expanding. In this episode, you’ll learn: - Why feeling “in-between” is a normal part of identity reintegration - How nostalgia and growth can coexist at the same time - Why everyday routines act as anchors in a new country - Why sharing your day-to-day experience matters—even if no one asks   If you are looking for support, get in touch and share your questions and concerns at: [email protected] Find us on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube!
