Partner Taking a Career Break

Rachel is not working for the first time following her relocation and needs to reinvent herself. She is also pregnant and while she has moved a lot herself, this is the first time as a relocating partner.


When Rachel started her Integration Program she loved that the Consultant had lived abroad herself and understood what Rachel was going through. She also enjoyed the fact that she felt challenged through the coaching process to achieve goals and felt accountable to the coach, which she found motivating. Because the change Rachel went through can be overwhelming, she loved the flexibility of the support. Some of the topics she  worked through with her NetExpat Consultant included making her feel at home, helping organize her thinking, providing resources, helping to adjust locally, helping keep her on track so she doesn't lose her purpose, and setting realistic plans and goals. Through the process Rachel loved the support and was surprised how much she learned about herself through coaching.
