Are you returning "home" after living, working or studying abroad? Warning: for most people, re-entry (also called reverse culture shock or repatriation) is the HARDEST part of the entire living abroad experience
That's why the Re-entry Roadmap workbook takes you by the hand and guides you through this challenging transition.
Filled with fresh insights, thought-provoking activities, and actionable advice, the Re-entry Roadmap gives you the keys to greater insight, meaning, and ease in re-entry by helping you:
(1) Process your complex emotions,
(2) Navigate changing relationships,
(3) Talk about your life abroad in a way that engages others,
(4) Be the authentic, global person you've become...everywhere,
(5) Create a future that's even better than your past .
This lively, humorous, and engaging guide then shows you how to put what you've learned about yourself into a plan of action - your "Forward Launch" - for living a beautiful, meaningful, and satisfying global life that you love no matter where in the world you are.
Whether you're just about to return, are in the middle of the re-entry or have been back a while, the Re-entry Roadmap will help you find confidence, clarity, and connection, as well as your best next step.

She has taught at three universities, led workshops around the world, and consulted for schools, universities, and organizations.
