Valentine’s day is just a couple of weeks away and so I thought it’s a good time to share some relationship-related content!
As a certified Relationship Coach, relationships are a topic of great interest to me. They make up a huge part of our lives and can affect all other areas of life as well.
A large portion of my clients come to me because of a relationship problem. Over time, and with the help of my incredible teachers and the experience I gained coaching, I’ve developed my own approach.
I believe all relationships can be improved – it’s never too late or too hopeless. But the answer is not by compromising and meeting half way, like we are often led to believe. Because that requires both parties to change who they are for the other, to settle for less even…
Rather, by being open to look at the relationship from a different perspective, by growing very conscious and intentionally doing things that actually work.

6 tips to improve your relationship
Listen to the episode and implement these practical tools right away to create the shifts in your relationship that you desire.
One thing many people struggle with when they move abroad is their perceived loss or change in identity. Even more so, when you relocate for your partner’s career and are referred to as “the wife of” and instead of asking about you, people want to know what your spouse does…
Have you ever asked yourself questions like “What am I doing here? What’s the point of my life here?”
Are you tired of having to make so many efforts: trying to adapt to different customs, speak a different language, meet new people, fill your days with things to do?
Do you secretly envy your friends back home for all the plans they get to do, that you’re no longer a part of; for building their careers while you had to put yours on hold; for their easy, safe and well-known life?
And have these thoughts crept into your daily life? Affecting your relationship. The way you show up as a mother. Your overall mood and energy level. Your outlook on the future.
You may call it Expat Fatigue. You may call it Boreout. You may call it being stuck in a rut. Whatever words you choose and identify with… bottomline is it sucks.
There’s lots of advice you’ve received, but it doesn’t seem to fix it.
And that’s because it only treats symptoms. Not the root cause of your problems. Not the origin of these unpleasant feelings.
Want to know what that is? Then make sure to listen to this episode of The Empowered Expat Wife Podcast.
January seems to be the typical month in which many of us battle with “Expat Fatigue”.
You know the feeling: it’s when you’ve lived in a place for a considerable time, the novelty has worn off and you just feel like you’re in a rut, you might feel bored, without perspective, maybe even depressed.
As I was outlining this episode, I realized I had to split this into different parts.
Because one thing I learnt during lockdown is that when you’re in a low state of mind, it’s difficult to jump right to the solution and leave all your troubles behind.
There are simply too many steps in between where your head and your feelings are right now and where you want to be. So this would require tremendous effort, which you probably don’t have the strength for right now if you’re battling with expat fatigue and all those unpleasant feelings.
That’s why in this first episode I’m gonna focus on positively changing your state of mind, improving your mood, raising your vibration.
I’m also gonna take you through a powerful energy cleansing technique, specifically designed to release blocks in your subconsciousness that negatively contribute to expat fatigue.
What does “raising your vibration” mean?
Everything in this world is made up of energy. Therefore everything has an energetic frequency, including our thoughts and feelings.
In this episode I refer to the work of Dr. David Hawkins who used muscle testings to associate an energetic frequency to our feelings.
Look at the chart below: can you identify on what energetic frequency you are calibrating most of the time?
Hawkins’ Map of Consciousness
We all have an emotional home and so-called go-to-emotions that we’re wired to experience frequently.
When you’ve found yours, ask yourself how you can rise up one level? And today’s episode will help you achieve just that!
You’ll learn:
Why it’s important to improve your state of mind before tackling expat fatigue (and other adversities)
How self-compassion is crucial in raising your vibration
How your posture affects your emotional wellbeing
The one thing that helps me calibrate on a high frequency
What healthy habits you should adopt
Bonus: Subconscious Release Technique – a powerful energy cleansing exercise, which I’ve specifically designed for Expat Fatigue
Stay tuned for next week…
…where I’ll share some ‘quick fixes’ with you for snapping out of Expat Fatigue; but most importantly tell you what’s at the root of this unpleasant feeling and how you can overcome it once and for all.
(Episode 14 – Expat Fatigue, Part 2 will be released on Thursday 14 January)
