Expat Life Coaching

Are you an expat or considering becoming one?

I help fellow explorers navigate the cycle of expat life.

Become friends with your curiosity.

Learn to embrace the unknown with confidence; replace aloneness and overwhelm with clarity and integration.

It’s ok not to know what you don’t know - start with curiosity!

Do any of these questions ring true to you?

What could my life be like if I lived in a different country?

I am able to work remotely and yearning to have a new life experience, but where do I start?

I am becoming a Digital Nomad - what’s next?

How am I going to manage this upcoming move to my new city?

How will I adapt & integrate?

How will I adjust to language, culture; how will I make new friends?

How will I tackle the unknown and become part of a community?

How do I stop feeling so lonely and lost in my new location?

How do I cope with the transition now that I am repatriating?


You are not alone!

I have been here a few times, without any support, but you don’t have to go down that path.

I am a certified life coach who helps people navigate the cycle of expat life.

The process of deciding, planning and living in a new country can, and does cause both mental and emotional stress. Repatriating can have the same impact.

Regardless of where you are on your journey it’s ok not to know what you don’t know and seek support. You can start with curiosity!

What is expat life coaching and how does it work?

Many people view working with a life coach as a means of bridging the gap between your current circumstances and the life you’d like to lead. It is an opportunity to create new beginnings.

A different way of looking at patterns and challenges and how they show up in your life, so that you can make choices that represent your true, authentic self.

Expat life coaching focuses on challenges related to living in a country or a culture that is not native.

Perhaps you are just “Curious”, or further along this journey and in “Planning” stages. Or you are in what I call the “I am Here” stage. Maybe you are “Repatriating”.

Regardless of where you are on your journey, I will support you, help you navigate and clarify your dreams, desires and goals.

I will help you access the answers to your questions.

Tap into your confidence and access what you really want.

Shift from challenges to claiming your truth.

    Now what? What will I encounter when I return?

What people are saying

”I love working with Sophia. She has this way of connecting with those places within you that feel different or other, or like you don't fit in, and opening up opportunities to feel seen and part of, and a sense of belonging. I found her bicultural perspective really helped to shift and shape stories around work and patterns of burnout that were mostly entrenched in cultural stories and norms that I grew up with here in the U.S. Sophia holds the space in a kind and compassionate way while asking really insightful and intelligent questions. She creates a container that feels safe and free of judgement. Highly recommended.” K.L
