✺Group Goals
Examine learned and inherited ways of leaving and arriving that have impacted how you have attached.
Come away with a deeper understanding of how you attune to the homes you have created.
Find community, share your story, and feel less alone in your experience.
You may be a good fit for this group if…
You identify as a adult Third culture kid (ages 18+). See below *
You are struggling with feeling seen or known because of a diversity of personal experiences
You are ready and want to talk about themes of goodbyes, homesickness, arriving, code-switching, nostalgia, making friends, and transitions
You may have recently gone through a global geographic move or transition. Don’t want to unpack, get rid of boxes, hang up anything on the walls
You don’t want to go on this journey alone anymore and want to connect with others experiencing similar things.
This group may not be a good fit for you if…
You are looking for a coaching mastermind class or a psychotherapy group. This is not a replacement for therapy. If you think you may benefit from one-on-one mental health counseling or coaching support, please reach out.
You are in crisis or actively self-harming in ways that require medical attention.
* Major asterisk about what defines an adult-TCK (IYKY!). This definition is not meant to be defining for who belongs in this category or not as there is an abundance of nuance and intersectionality. Many folks define an adult-TCK as someone who is 18 years and older who has spent a significant amount of your developmental/ adolescent years outside their passport country/ countries.
There may be folks who don’t exactly match the above description, that is okay! If you identify with the goals of the group and and feel called to explore past experiences, particularly as a child, you are welcome! If you are unsure, feel free to reach out but air on the side of “YOU ARE WELCOME and there is space here for you”.
I know there are Third Culture Adults (TCA) out there who have spent a significant number of years outside their passport countries when an adult and do struggle with transitional challenges. This may not be the right fit for you as the main focus of this group is on reflecting on previous experiences of departing and arriving in new places as a young child or adolescent.
