In the Lab. next

Relocation, whether overseas or interstate, doesn’t just change your postcode, it reshapes your routines, relationships, work, and sense of self. Many accompanying partners find themselves thinking, “Who even am I here?” while juggling everyone else’s needs.

​

January in the ellora. Lab, we’re exploring identity shifts through the lens of life transitions and career change. With USA based psychologist Amanda Sheroff, we’ll unpack:

  • What identity actually is (beyond job titles and labels)

  • Why moving countries, states, or communities can trigger a profound identity wobble

  • How grief, homesickness and “cultural bereavement” can show up

  • The difference between belonging and fitting in

  • Practical ways to feel more grounded, intentional and “yourself” again

 

LIVE session: Thursday, 15 January, 9-11am GMT+08
