Hands up if you can relate!
Dutch directness
You’ve learned to appreciate the Dutch honesty, but it did take some getting used to. And is it really never personal? At times it still catches you by surprise..
When the honeymoon is over
After the first few months, reality is dawning in on you. It's not easy adapting to a new culture, finding new friends, getting the hang of how things are done, while also excelling at your job. There's little (mental) energy left for your personal life.
That calendar..
Doing something spontaneous? Forget it! When the Dutch don't have it in their agenda, it is not going to happen right?
Is it me?
You had all these high expectations of how your life abroad (and you!) would be, but you find yourself not meeting any of them. You start to question & blame yourself - shouldn't I do more?
We know what it's like...
We see you! Been there, done that. Coco & Amanda know how it is to be a high achieving expat. As a former Diplomat and Security & Crisis manager, these girls have faced some challenges.
Managing the cultural differences within the international workplace, while feeling high on life outside of work (of what is left of it) might sound like a walk in the park - we know it is not!
And this is precisely why we created Success Beyond Borders. A live event for expats and zooming in on those struggles - plus what you can do to overcome them, of course. With our expertise in overcoming cultural differences and personal growth, we give you all the tools you need to succeed in your expat life.

Can my employer cover the expenses?
We think they can! Success Beyond Borders will help you to communicate more effectively in your multicultural team, perform better at work, and feel happier in your personal life. Wins your employer is also going to benefit from. You can buy your ticket and declare your expenses, or your employer can directly purchase your ticket with us (we also work with invoices).
What will I learn exactly?
You will learn all about cultural perception and how it impacts your performance, Dutch culture, how you can create an empowering mindset, and what you can do to exercise control over your expat life. And much more! All packed with practical tips.
I might come alone..
No problem! Most will. And at the closing drinks you can mingle with your new contacts.
Will you organise this more often?
Yes, we might. But for now, 3 November is the only date in the agenda. So if you want to start nailing your expat life, get your ticket ASAP!
I have another question.
