So You Think You Want to Move Abroad — The Honest Guide + Workbook + Savings Tracker (Digital)

Before you sell the house, before you tell your mother, before you book the one-way flight — read this.

So You Think You Want to Move Abroad is the guide we wish someone had handed us before we left Oklahoma in 2023 with our daughter, three grandkids, and a 20-year business behind us. It's the honest version. Not the YouTube version.

This is a complete decision package — a 73-page guide, a 29-page companion workbook with proper space to write, and a live savings tracker that turns the math in the book into something you can watch unfold in real time.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

📖 The Guide (73-page PDF)
Eight parts. The five shapes of leaving. The questions you're avoiding. The conversations you haven't had yet. The financial reality check — cost to leave, three honest tiers of cost to live, the Western wages trap, and the runway question. The red flags. The six regret patterns. An eight-prompt self-honesty worksheet. And a clear path forward for whether you're a yes, a not yet, or a no.

✍️ The Companion Workbook (29-page PDF)
Every worksheet and prompt from the guide, with proper space to actually write your answers. The fit-finder. The toward / from list. The N/B/L people grid. The cost-to-leave and runway worksheets. The eight self-honesty prompts. One paragraph of decision, dated and signed.

📊 The Savings Tracker (XLSX, 7 tabs)
Your goals, your numbers, and your savings story in real time. Log every garage sale, paycheck save, side gig, and tax refund as it happens. Log every apostille, visa fee, and pet shipper deposit as you spend it. The dashboard tells you where you actually are — total saved, gap to close, required monthly pace, readiness. Works in Excel, Google Sheets, and Numbers.

WHO IT'S FOR

→ You've been thinking about it for more than six months
→ Your partner says they're "on board" but the conversation always ends with "well, we'll see"
→ You have kids, or grandkids, or parents, or a business, or all of the above
→ You've watched enough YouTube to know that nobody's telling you the hard parts
→ You want a clear-eyed yes, not yet, or no — not a sales pitch

────────────────────

WHO IT'S NOT FOR

→ You want someone to tell you that moving abroad will fix your life
→ You're looking for a country recommendation
→ You don't want to write anything down

WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS GUIDE

We're a family, not influencers. We sold a 20-year business in Oklahoma in 2023 and have lived in Bali, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Albania with our daughter and three grandchildren since. We travel multigenerationally — kids on day one, not someday. We write about the parts of this almost nobody else writes about: the conversations with adult children, the financial reality you can't YouTube your way around, the grief nobody warned you about.

This is the guide we wish someone had handed us.
