EXPATransformation is an inquiry into the question of whether YOU or someone you love should become an EXPAT and leave the USA for the BEST of your life.
It’s an entertaining, informative, and thought-provoking introduction to life lessons through the lens of Steve Jobs’ 2005 Stanford Commencement Address, in which he shares three stories demonstrating their transformative effect on his life:
-
Life is short so, there’s No Time to Waste!
-
Connecting the Dots in our Lives and how you need to trust and have faith that it will just be OK.
-
Discovering what you really LOVE to do and doing THAT!
Michael skillfully maps Jobs’ three stories into the life lessons of his and his family’s more than century-long EXPAT experience, with numerous stories about courage, faith, love, loss, death, and living life to the fullest, as though there were no tomorrow! He also introduces other EXPATs he’s met along his own EXPAT journey, and the benefits they reaped from escaping from the dreaded, cursed “same old, same old.”
Michael will introduce you to the EXPAT heroes in his life’s journey, his grandfather, Scotty Durham, his late wife, Laurie, their two amazing children, and their Aunt Jo, who saved Michael’s life, literally, not to forget dear Doctor Klot and the not-so-dear, Doctor Doogie Howser.
And you’ll be moved by Jason’s and Stan’s EXPATransformation stories, which demonstrate how critical it is to put yourself into the arena of EXPAT life if you want the miracle of a complete transformation to occur for you, and not just watching safely and comfy in the stands hoping for them to somehow show up.
He explains that this is NOT a “how-to” book, but more of an “if-to” look at what aspects of human nature call out to a person to take the giant leap and leave the country of his/her birth, finding new adventures, opportunities, success, fulfillment, and love. Michael says from the outset, that even if being an EXPAT doesn’t work for you, perhaps it could be EXACTLY the thing for someone you love.
