Your Detailed Roadmap for Moving ABROAD
A 12-month community course to move ABROAD with confidence—get the exact steps to handle visas, finances, health, education, and so much more, so that you can trade fear for a life filled with adventure and freedom in a new country.
If you've been...
💭 Dreaming of a different life, scrolling through social media, imagining what it would be like to live in a country where things just feel different - less chaotic, less divisive, more peaceful
😤 Waking up every morning to the reality of feeling stuck in a place that no longer aligns with your values, terrified that your home country is heading in a direction that doesn't feel safe or supportive for you or your family.
💶 Watching the bills stack up, feeling like there's never enough to go around, let alone save for something as 'unrealistic' as moving abroad.
⏳ Spending hours researching, paralyzed by the overwhelming advice around you telling you that moving abroad is too expensive, too risky, or too complicated. You've heard it all, and frankly, you're tired of the noise.
I get it. I've been there.
I've made the decision to leave behind what was familiar and move abroad - not once but three times. And with each move, I've had to overcome the fears and doubts that everyone else tried to project on me: "It's too hard." "You'll miss 'home' too much." "You'll never be able to make it."
Moving abroad doesn't need to cost a fortune. It doesn't need to be as complicated as everyone says. And it definitely doesn't have to feel like a leap into the unknown.
Especially when you have the right tools to make it happen.
I have the secret to making your move abroad simple
If you're ready to make the move and start your life of freedom, I've created something just for you.
But before you pack your bags...
Do any of these sound familiar?
☑️ You research, research (and research) everything...
...about moving abroad, only to be met with information overload and conflicting advice.
☑️ Your relocation "strategy" has been...
...woefully lacking in actual strategy - and besides scouring expat forums and blogs, you're not exactly sure what more there is to do?
☑️ You feel defeated...
... every time someone tells you that moving abroad is too expensive, and the doubts creep in. You start to wonder if it will ever have enough to move overseas and save your family from the chaos at 'home'
If so, you're in the right spot, so keep reading!
That dream of waking up in a place where you feel safe, free, and truly at home is completely within your reach.
Yes! Even if you don't have a bank balance as big as George Clooney's, and it feels like there's no way to make such a big move happen...
Imagine having a map like this, filled with all the places you’ve lived and visited, without the weight of overwhelming fear or the constant pressure of living in a system which no longer serves YOU.
When you move abroad, you're not just changing locations-you're reclaiming your freedom. Freedom from the oppressive forces holding you back, from the endless cycle of frustration that keeps you stuck.
Now picture this: waking up in a place where you can finally live on your own terms, write your own story, and build the life you've always wanted.
Whether it's stepping into a quiet corner of a European cafe or walking through the vibrant streets in Ho Chi Minh City, you get to choose your next move. Every day becomes an opportunity to live authentically, embracing a new culture that empowers you, and feel the freedom that comes with no longer worrying about someone taking away your rights.
The world is your canvas, and you are free to create the masterpiece you deserve. It's time to live life the way you choose.
Let's dream about that day, shall we?
when you've finally moved overseas and are living where you know is right for you and your family...
🩵 You wake up in your cozy apartment, the soft light of the morning spilling in, as you sip fresh coffee and gaze out at the sun-kissed rooftops, feeling completely at home in a place that is miles away from the stress and chaos that you left behind.
🩵 You send your kids off to school with excitement, knowing they're not only thriving in a new culture but are safe-with no worries about 'safety' issues at school you once faced daily. They're learning more than just language; they're gaining confidence, adventure, and a future you couldn't have created back home.
🩵 Instead of worrying about the same threats and fear back home, you're planning your weekends exploring new quaint villages or bustling cities, knowing your family is safe and free from the violence and uncertainty you once faced.
THAT super dreamy day? That's what's waiting for you on the other side of...

Hey there, new friend!!
I'm Mistelle - immigrant, mentor, 9-5er, mom, and moving abroad expert
I got my start of moving abroad as a newborn, surviving my first international move at only 6-weeks old. After moving around more than 20 times in my life, I took my first adult international move in 2013 to Switzerland.
Welcome to being completely unprepared. While we had a relocation consultant who helped us with the paperwork and a company-sponsored move (whoa all the packing)... we had no idea what we were doing. And it showed.
I mean, we showed up to our empty European-sized apartment (and an EU-sized lift to match) with our American-sized furniture, and a set of movers who probably hated us as they dragged our queen-sized sleigh bed up seven flights of stairs.
Talk about feeling awkward! 😬
Our next move was to Vienna, Austria, but this time we had a 6-month old in tow, and we took what we learned from moving to Switzerland and made fewer mistakes. But we still stumbled over a few, errr.. interesting adventures in taxes and finances, one that cost us more than 10,000 Euros 🤯.
When we moved back to Switzerland in 2020 during the global pandemic, we were prepared. Checklist in hand, this move was smooth sailing. We were prepared for the chaos, scaled-down furniture and three-year old ready to go.
Now, we're finally settled into a house we own in a little town in central Switzerland. I've learned a thing (or 12) about what it takes to move internationally - both alone and with a family.
So I can confidently say that if I can successfully, simply, stress-freely move my family across borders during a global pandemic, I can help you do the same 🩵
So how do you bridge the gap between where you are and the future you dream of?
The 6-Phase REACCH Framework
The REACCH framework equips you with everything you need to confidently transition from that uncomfortable, unsafe life to settling into the extraordinary, safe future in your new home abroad.
This isn’t just about getting through the logistics—it’s about embracing the journey, navigating every challenge with a clear plan, and settling into your new life with a sense of purpose and excitement.
REACCH gives you the tools to not just survive the move, but to thrive in your new life abroad - so you can live the story you've always wanted, on your terms.
I'VE RESERVED YOUR PREFERRED SEAT
JOIN ABROAD
We have two ways to join that won't put a dent in your travel budget when you land!
Flexible Payment Plan
3 payments of 177 €
With the payment plan option, you can split up your payments over three months to help defray the costs.
One-Time, Easy Payment
1 payment of 497 €
With this paid-in-full option, you can pay in one single payment without any interest or fees. You save 30€!
That's less than what you'd spend overpaying for rushed 'original' documents, misunderstood housing paperwork, and overweight shipping charges all because you missed some nuance you didn't know to watch out for...
(and way less than the 10,000 Euro mistake we made so you don't have to)

frequently asked questions
You've got questions. We've got answers...
I don't have a lot of money to move. Why should I pay for you to help me?
I get it. Moving abroad is not without cost. And hiring a 'coach' to help you move may seem like a frivolous expense. The truth is, you can absolutely go it alone, but that may cost you a LOT more in the long-run. With my experience, I know where to spend and where to save. And I just might help you avoid the 10,000 Euro mistake we made when we moved to Austria (which is a LOT more than the investment in this course BTW).
Do I get access to all the modules at once?
This program is currently a fixed enrollment, and modules will be released week by week. There will be a pre-work module that includes the foundational information you need in order to have success in the program. It includes mindset, goal-setting, and introductions and information you need to know, and more. Then you'll move into the full program.
What if it takes more than 6 weeks?
That's totally ok! You'll have lifetime access to all the lessons inside the program (and any bonuses too). After your 6 8 (+2 bonus because of the holidays) weeks are up, if you still want coaching support, you'll have the option to join the ABROAD support community.
What time are the calls? I work full-time so I'm nervous I won't be able to make them!
We have a very international audience, so we try to do our best to accommodate most schedules. What we've found is that 2 pm EST works well for most (that's 8 pm CET / 10 am PST) works well for most, which is the time the majority of the calls will be. Regardless, every call is recorded and you have Monday - Thursday access to me inside of Slack to ask any questions as you work through the curriculum.
What happens after I sign up?
As soon as you enroll in ABROAD, you'll get immediate access to the course. As this is the beta program launch, the Prework Module may not be immediately available (but will be loaded shortly thereafter). You'll get some pre-program homework and then you can dive into the lessons on mindset and goal-setting. This week 0 module will help set the foundations of your success in ABROAD.
I have a question you haven't answered yet. Can I send you a DM?
Of course! I'm @iammistelle on IG.
If you've made it this far down the page (hi, BTW), you're probably having a hard time deciding whether or not ABROAD is right for you (or not)...
Here's exactly how to know:
ABROAD is for you if:
✅ You know moving abroad is the right decision for you but have no idea where to start with the paperwork and logistics.
✅ You're ready to ditch the "one day" mindset and actually take the leap to move overseas
✅ You're committed to creating a new life abroad but feel overwhelmed by the endless to-do lists, from visas to finding the right health insurance
✅ You're eager to set yourself (and your family) up for success abroad but need a clear roadmap to navigate the transition smoothly
✅ You're ready to start your journey and create a life that is safe, free, and well-lived for you and your family.
ABROAD is NOT for you if:
⛔️ You're content with just daydreaming about living abroad but aren't ready to take action
⛔️ You're willing to stay stuck in the fear that brought you here in the first place.
⛔️ You prefer staying within your comfort zone and aren't ready to explore your life beyond the cornfield you see outside your window
⛔️ You believe moving abroad is just about luck and aren't willing to invest the time and energy needed to make it happen.
⛔️ You're not ready to ditch the belief that it's too expensive or that there's no way you'll ever make it happen.
Read through all of this and STILL unsure?
It's time to trust your gut
(Yeah, that thing that isn't a fan of any dairy)
I get it - people always say, "You'll never feel ready." But honestly? I think you know when you're ready.
For me, being ready isn't about having everything figured out. It's when I feel those butterflies of excitement mixed with a little nervousness.
It's also when I've had enough of doing things the same old way - staying stuck - because if you keep doing what you've always done, you'll keep getting the same results, right?
But that's just me.
Your instinct led you to consider moving abroad.
It also led you all the way here, to me, and to the bottom of this page.
That's got to mean something.
But again - that's just my two cents.
So I'll leave this right here:
👇👇👇
Take it away, gut!
Gut needed a break?
Wanna talk it through?
I totally get that this is a big decision, and I'm here to support you in whatever way I can. This program is here to help you live your life - DM me 'MORE' and let's talk it out. I got you!
