LaMatu

What does it really mean to design a meaningful life abroad?

I recently recorded a podcast conversation with Adis Sophie from Designing Your Life - Netherlands at the podcast studio of Equals Clubhouse in Amsterdam.

Together, we explored relocation, reinvention, career transitions, and the intentional choices that help us build a life with more clarity, confidence, and purpose.

I shared parts of my own journey: moving from Poland to Spain, Germany, and eventually the Netherlands; building an international corporate career; and later transitioning into founding LaMatu, my coaching practice for international professionals navigating career and life transitions in the Netherlands.

We explored questions many expats and international professionals will recognise:
↳ How do you create a meaningful life in a new country?
↳ How do you navigate uncertainty when your career path no longer feels aligned?
↳ How can job crafting, coaching, and small experiments help you prototype the next chapter of your life?
↳ And how do you move forward when you are ready for change, but not yet sure what that change should look like?

Thank you, Adis Sophie, for co-creating such a thoughtful and grounded conversation, and or bringing this work to life.

The episode is called "Designing a Meaningful Life Abroad: How to Intentionally Design a Life Aligned with Purpose."
