Unpacking Your Backpack Debriefing Workshop (Live) January 9 or 14
If you’ve lived abroad and recently returned to your passport country—whether or not you call it home—it can feel… complicated.
You’ve changed. You’ve grown. You’ve experienced things most people around you can’t fully understand. But when you try to talk about it, it seems like no one is really interested, or they just don’t get it.
What do you do with all of that? The memories, the growth, the losses, the lessons—everything that shaped you while you were away?
So often, returning expats feel like they have to pack it all up—put it in a box, set it on a shelf, and move on. But you know that’s not who you are now. You can’t just shove it away. You’ve changed too much.
If this sound like you, register for the next online live Unpacking Your Backpack workshop.
This isn’t your average quick, one-hour webinar. This is a 3-hour live, guided session designed to help you begin naming, normalizing, and processing the unique experiences you’ve had while living abroad. This will be live, and not recorded.
We’ll take the time you need—to unpack what you’ve carried, reflect on how it’s shaped you, and explore how to integrate those lessons into your life moving forward. Think of it as opening up your emotional and mental ‘backpack’ to sort through what’s weighing you down and discover treasures you didn’t even realize you had.
This workshop is a safe, supportive space for reflection, connection, and growth. So grab your favorite drink, bring dinner if you want, and settle in for an evening that’s all about you.
Your story matters. Your experiences matter. And they deserve to be understood—not shelved away.
‘Unpacking Your Backpack’—because your journey doesn’t end just because you’ve come home.
