INSIDE THE MOVE ABROAD PRESSURE TEST

AND 1:1 LIFE-ABROAD ADVICE PROCESS

Before you pay for a written diagnostic or a live call, you should know exactly what happens next.

This page shows you what each option includes, how the process works, what kind of written output you receive, and the kind of situations this is designed to help with.

If you are serious about life abroad but do not want to make an expensive emotional decision, start here.

What this page is for

This page is here to make the invisible feel concrete.

You do not need more vague promises. You need to know:

  • What happens after purchase
  • What you fill out
  • What I actually do with it
  • What you get back in writing
  • What happens during a live call
  • Which option fits your situation best

What this is and what it is not

This is for:

  • Decision pressure-testing
  • Sorting out whether your plan is sturdy or built on wishful thinking
  • Identifying blind spots before they get expensive
  • Sequencing next steps in the right order
  • Protecting optionality while you figure out what really fits

This is not:

  • Legal advice
  • Tax advice
  • Immigration processing
  • Residency package sales
  • Cheerleading detached from reality

One sentence version

ChatGPT can generate options. I help you see which option is most likely to survive your actual life.

The four options, clearly defined

1) Move Abroad Pressure Test

$79 • Written diagnostic review

Best if you want experienced judgment before committing to a live call.

  • Structured diagnostic form
  • Written review of your situation
  • Weak spots and likely blind spots identified
  • Best-fit path based on your constraints
  • Next 3 to 5 steps in order

2) Life-Abroad Advice Call

$189 • 50 minutes

Best if you want to talk the plan through live and pressure-test the hardest parts in real time.

  • Short intake form before the call
  • Live discussion of your plan, risks, and tradeoffs
  • Direct answers to your top questions
  • Written next steps after the call

3) Two-Call Advice Package

$279 • 2 × 50 minutes

Best if your situation is layered, emotionally loaded, or higher stakes.

  • First call diagnoses the plan and the friction points
  • You reflect, update, and pressure-test what still holds up
  • Second call refines the plan into something more workable
  • Better for couples, complex timing, or multiple moving parts

4) Returning Client Call

Best if we have already worked together and your situation changed.

  • Re-check what shifted
  • Re-stress-test the next move
  • Adjust your structure based on current reality

Sample Written Review Excerpts

Composite example

These are excerpts from a sample format, not a real client case.

Main goal:
Spend 6 to 12 months abroad without ruining your future options back in the US.

 

What looks strong:
Portable income, realistic desire for a slower pace, openness to a staged approach, no need to force a permanent move immediately.

 

What looks weak:
Your housing expectations are a little too hopeful, your legal stay plan is still fuzzy, the excitement of a new place is doing a lot of the heavy lifting, and the loneliness factor may hit harder than you are expecting.

 

Best-fit path right now:
A staged hybrid setup or test year with a maintained US base, not a rushed permanent leap.

 

Next steps:

  1. Build a real monthly cost ceiling using actual numbers, not listing-site fantasy
  2. Choose 2 realistic cities and 1 backup, based on livability and legal stay logic
  3. Avoid any long lease before 30 to 45 days in-country
  4. Create a legal stay plan (look into temporary visa options for staying longer than your current tourist visa stay allows) before booking the broader year
  5. Define what success at month six actually means

What this sample is meant to show

The goal isn’t to overwhelm you with theory. It’s to show you:

  • specific pressure points
  • a clearer path
  • practical sequencing
  • fewer expensive assumptions

Composite scenarios this process is designed for

The burned-out remote worker

They think a country change will solve exhaustion. Sometimes it helps. Sometimes the real issue is work structure, sleep, isolation, or decision fatigue. The process helps separate what geography can change from what follows you.

The couple with uneven enthusiasm

One person is excited. The other is anxious. The issue is not just the country choice. It is whether the structure, pace, and risk level actually work for both people.

The near-retiree with something to protect

They want a different life, but they also have assets, family ties, and downside risk. The process helps protect optionality while building a version that is livable, not just exciting.

Which option is best for you?

Start with the Written Diagnostic if:

  • you want experienced judgment before a live call
  • you are still sorting out what the real issue is
  • you want something concrete in writing first

Book the 1:1 Call if:

  • you already know the main question and want to talk it through live
  • you want direct back-and-forth around tradeoffs and next steps
  • you do better with conversation than solo reflection

Book the 2-Call Package if:

  • your situation is layered or higher stakes
  • you need time between sessions to reflect, update, and refine
  • one call would likely feel too compressed
