107 - Room for all of Me

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2024/03/15

There are so many elements to our selves as Third Culture Kids it can feel stifling to feel stuck in one iteration of self for long. Moving to places that invite a different self forward is one solution, but today I'm reflecting on how setting internal boundaries can spin the dial and allow different selves to take space alongside one another. In all this, the Japanese idea, "yutori" is one I'm finding very helpful - unhurried spaciousness applied to our many selves. Hosted on Acast. See

106 - Third Culture Kids and Boundaries

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2024/03/08

Boundaries... we can have a very heavy relationship with this word. Fear of crossing them, of faux pas, and fear of setting them - this is the story for many Third Culture Kids. In this episode I'm exploring what it is about our experiences of mobility that can complicate boundaries for us, and how we can rebuild relationship with them. Hosted on Acast.

105 - Why can it be hard to feel good?

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2024/02/23

So many of us are struggling to learn how to overcome challenges, change thought patterns and achieve our goals. So why, just as we start to see ourselves make these hard won changes, do we sometimes hit a whole new level of discomfort - that of feeling good!? Many Third Culture Kids find that the struggle and change is more familiar to us than the work of maintaining 'arrival' in those good places we dream of... Hosted on Acast.

104 - am I a good learner as a TCK?

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2024/02/09

TCKs often grow up accustomed to the need to learn new skills quickly (with varying degrees of felt success!) and this can complicate our relationship to our identities as 'learners'. In some ways we receive feedback we are ahead of our passport peers, and in other ways we can feel very behind. In this episode I explore something that has recently got me contemplating my own belief about myself as a 'poor learner'. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

103 - When we don't want to need care.

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2024/01/26

I hear this a lot, "but I don't want to need to take care of me". It's often in recognition of how much you've been through, how much taking care of yourself has already cost you... and the pain of realising how much time and energy your body, mind and heart are still asking of you... and today I'm sitting with you here.

102 - Third Culture Kids and Reciprocity

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2024/01/19

How does being a TCK impact how we approach reciprocity in relationships? In my experience, it often leads us to want to heavily weight the experience towards us being givers, rather than takers... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

98 - You are a gift

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2023/12/22

At a season where so many of us are wrapped up (see what I did there?!) in finding the perfect gifts, I want to take a moment to explore how the idea of being a gift to the world may have touched our story as Third Culture Kids, and how I'd like to offer a reframe.

97 - A Hallmark Christmas

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2023/12/15

The familiar (and repetitive) scripts of Christmas Hallmark movies remind me of how we can find safety in the predictable stories we hold this season. However, it's worth exploring if these familiar stories are ones we are choosing, or if we even feel good about the characters we are playing! Hosted on Acast.

96 - Other People's Stories of Us

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2023/12/01

How comfortable are we when other people's stories of us don't align with how we want to be perceived? In my experience, it's a common human experience to feel the need to have some control over the story of who we are. For many TCKs, it's aligned to our very social survival... Hosted on Acast.

94 - Let's break a social rule... on purpose!

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2023/11/17

Ok, this is a fun one... What do we feel about breaking social rules? For me there is a shiver of dread around this, a reaction that remembers the cost of cultural faux pas. But what about if we are breaking rules intentionally? What rule would you break? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

93 - Are they the right one for me?

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2023/11/10

This is such a common question I hear from Third Culture Kids trying to work out their relationship stories... and in this episode I want to explore what could be going on here for us. Why do we need to be so sure? And what could this focus on the other be denying ourselves? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2023/10/27

Change has been the constant for so many Third Culture Kids, for so long. If there is one thing we can count on, it's change. Yet what is our relationship with change - and how much power do we feel we have in it? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

90 - I Belong Where I Want To

The life of a Third Culture Kid therapist ·

2023/10/20

This title, "I Belong Where I Want To" feels so subversive... I'm so acutely aware of the pain I and so many other TCKs have felt around belonging that this phrase feels almost ridiculous. And yet I've come to believe it - utterly. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
