What I Wish I Knew Before I Sold Everything & Moved to France --or--The Truth About Starting Over

It’s been 9 months since I sold most of my sh*t and moved to France—and I’m finally ready to share what really happens in the messy middle of a major life transition. Whether it’s retirement, divorce, grief, or a big move—no one prepares you for the emotional rollercoaster that follows the decision. The honeymoon phase fades. The grief sneaks in. And the disconnect between what people think your life is and what you’re really experiencing? That part is jarring as hell. In this video, I share: Why the honeymoon phase ends faster than you think How grief shows up in the most unexpected ways (yes, like in a French grocery store over breadcrumbs) The emotional reality of stacking transitions—divorce, loss, and reinvention—and still choosing forward movement ✨ I don’t regret the move. But I do wish someone had talked more honestly about this messy middle. That’s why I created Wayfinding, a program to help you move through your own big life transition with clarity, courage, and community. We start April 17th.
