If you’ve ever come back to your home country and felt the urge to leave again, this episode is for you.

In today’s conversation, we’re unpacking something that hides beneath so many return stories: the fear of commitment. The fear of staying. The fear of being trapped again.

I’ll share how my own return taught me to always keep one foot out the door, in relationships, in work, even in my business, and why so many of us unconsciously link commitment with losing our freedom.

We’ll dive into:

• Why coming home can awaken a fear of being stuck or shrinking.

• How this fear quietly shows up in your relationships, your career, and your dreams.

• The difference between chasing freedom and truly feeling free.

• How to reframe commitment as devotion, not a cage, but a path to what you love.

By the end, you’ll start to see your return not as something that broke your freedom, but as an invitation to rebuild it, from the inside out.
