Jordan Tarver: The “Right Life” Isn’t Always the Safe One

Описание: Transform your expat experience → https://www.houseofperegrine.com

Have you ever had a life that looks perfect on paper… but feels quietly wrong? In this episode, bestselling author and change thinker Jordan Tarver joins Mickelle to explore what happens when you stop performing the “right” life and start choosing the one that’s actually yours. Jordan shares the intuitive origin story behind You Deserve This Sh!t, how solo travel became an initiation into self-awareness, and why purpose is a compass—not a job title. Plus: the four signals that change is calling (intuition, desire, emotions, surprises), why living abroad accelerates becoming, and the tender grief of letting go of an old rhythm so a new one can emerge.
