If you’re considering a move to the French Riviera, or already here and feeling stuck, this episode is a goldmine.
In this conversation, Cecile speaks with Luus, an engineer who went through extensive professional retraining to become a therapist and coach, and who has spent years observing how women adapt, reinvent their careers, and rebuild their identities after relocating abroad.
Luus offers a rare, expert perspective:
she has watched many of women arrive in France, struggle with language and confidence, lose their professional identity and eventually find a path that fits.
Drawing from years of therapeutic work with individuals and couples, she shares her most powerful insights on:
• why relocation destabilises your career identity
• the predictable phases women go through after moving to France
• the emotional and psychological blocks that appear during reinvention
• the smartest way to handle career change on the Riviera
• navigating fear, uncertainty, and the loss of professional confidence
• how to rebuild purpose and meaning in a new culture
• the role of community, language, partners, and inner work
• what she has seen work consistently for long-term success
Grounded, intelligent and deeply experienced, Luus offers some of the most valuable, honest guidance you will hear about career reinvention abroad.
