When a global move is on the horizon—be it planned or abrupt—how do you handle the logistics, as well as the soul work of leaving well? In this episode, Amy and Bernie talk again with Karli VonHerbulis about a transition workbook, created especially for cross-cultural workers. This valuable resource is packed with practical tools, reflective prompts, and debrief-style questions to help cross-cultural workers transition with intention instead of regret.

Have you ever gone from talking to a neighbor in one language straight into a team meeting in a different language? Or written a newsletter and then WhatsApp messaged siblings about aging parents? Or worked all day and then headed to a ministry event in the evening. If you have, I bet that at times, those daily transitions haven't always gone as smoothly as you'd hoped. Why? Because you didn't know how to lock-through in your daily life. In this episode, Amy talks boats, locks, and how you can handle daily transitions. You can be “locked-in” and “locked-through.”

This is our first episode that comes with a PDF download and use as you listen to the episode. (You can listen without it, but after listening, you’ll want it!)

Most organizations have a sexual harassment policy to handle incidents within their organization. Far fewer have a plan for what to actually do when an incident happens in the host culture. Stacey Covell returns to the show to join Amy and Bernie in unpacking best practices for handling the “dog bites” (isolated incidents) and “mosquito bites” (frequent reality) that your people experience. We’ve created a “best practices” document that you can download and use as is. Or feel free to use it as a starting point. It’s yours to use!

Now you can cover incidents within your organization and within the host culture. 🙌
