Parenting Unpacked: This is not a relocation manual

What if a parenting book didn’t try to fix you—but sat beside you in the mess?

If you’re raising kids far from “home,” Parenting Unpacked is your companion through the emotional terrain no guidebook prepares you for. It’s not a checklist. It’s not a survival manual. It’s the emotional map you didn’t know you needed—built from the raw, real stories of parents navigating identity, loss, love, and resilience across borders.

Because this book carries more than stories of parenting abroad. It holds truths rarely spoken—those that cut across belonging, rupture, and the quiet work of rebuilding.

Maybe you’ve read books about motherhood or immigration. But I dare say: in these pages, you’ll see yourself in a way you haven’t before.

Crafted by an expat mother who knows the chaos of diaper aisles in unfamiliar supermarkets and the ache of parenting in a language that isn’t yours, this book is equal parts confessional and connective. It’s written for the moments when the ground shifts—and you still have to show up, napless and brave.

🌍 Scheduled for release in the first half of 2026.

  • this is a very well-done book. Direct and engaging, with an enthusiastic narratorial voice that seems natural and not contrived.

  • Book 1 (Maternity Abroad) was already very informative and we believe that book 2 follows a natural timeline by showing some of the challenges that parents might face when parenting abroad. There’s no doubt that parenting is one of the most difficult—and at the same time most rewarding—jobs one can have and adding the extra challenge of living abroad might feel lonely or even scarier sometimes, and that’s why books like yours are so important. They provide a sense of community and partnership among readers, and we’re sure it will make the lives of many parents easier.

  • It also made me want to go back to certain section and take in the information anew. I finished my read feeling not just hopeful and energized, but more prepared, if that makes sense?
