Have You Forgotten the Last Time You Moved?

Once I'd remembered how real and disconcerting all those relocation-induced emotions can be—you know, enjoyable sensations of being totally lost, lonely, and overwhelmed—I wanted a solid way to help. So I partnered with relocation coach Marni Cummings on an online course called Relocation Recovery.

If you've moved in the past few years (or if you're still struggling to put down roots where you are), this course is for you.

• It's simple and self-paced.
• It's full of ideas for processing what you're going through and making yourself feel better.
• The challenges, if you do them, could change everything.
• It's only $25.

I'm really excited about Relocation Recovery precisely because I remember the pain. Go check it out.
