Relocation Support Package
Maximize your support with 1:1 Relocation Coaching
Your family’s situation is unlike anyone else’s. Work with a professional relocation coach who understands what you’re going through, can walk you through the process and support you every step along the way. Individual sessions with your Relocation Coach will support you every step along the way from preparing to arriving and starting to build your new life. Sessions can follow the themes in the guidebook, or focus on whatever topics you are seeking the most support with. You’ll also have the option for a dedicated “debriefing session” to reflect on what the place you are leaving has meant to you. Plus, you’ll have access to email or text communication with your coach between sessions to let your coach know how you're doing, ask questions, or seek support, so that you have someone there for you when you need it most.
What people are saying
“I contacted Thriving Relocation because I was trying to find clarity about my life and what to do next. Through amazing listening, support, and great questions, my coach helped me take the right actions to feel better. I now feel so much more in balance and at peace, enjoying this particular time in my life and with a direction on my next step.
I valued the opportunity to reflect on my life, on what I want. It was great to have someone truly listening to me and asking me the right questions to help me realise what matters, my needs, the necessary changes I need to make and also realise how grateful I am with my life today.”
— EMILIE, France & England
“I was having a lot of anxiety around thinking about moving. After the coaching, I felt a lot clearer and empowered. I had been reminded about what I truly do want and felt rather good about it and myself. The coaching helped me to listen to my gut, trust myself, and made decisions a bit easier.
In coaching I felt like I was ‘attacking’ a problem instead of going around and around about it. Also with the clarity came a lot of compassion and empathy from my coach. So it was really a perfect mix for me. I felt safe and guided in our session. It felt like my coach was really was there for ME and helped me to come up with a plan to support myself.”
