Helping adult TCKs find their place in the world
Who are we? We’re TCKs
What’s a TCK (or third culture kid)?
Someone raised in a culture other than that of their parents or their country of nationality for a significant part of their formative years.
Home is everywhere and nowhere.
You’re tired of having to explain.
You deserve to belong.
Are you a TCK? Would you like to talk?
I’m Jen, and I’m a TCK.
I was born in Edinburgh and grew up in Manchester (UK), Kenya and Australia. I’m half Scottish and half Indian. I guess I’m global.
Being a TCK comes with enormous advantages and some challenges too. Those challenges can include feelings of not belonging, of rootlessness and restlessness.
I share these challenges and have spent years creating a place I call home. I live in central London (UK) and have done for 16 years.
I work with adult TCKs to leverage their TCK journey to find their place in the world.
Finding it matters, and it starts with a conversation.
Third Culture Kids (TCKs) are people who spent their formative years moving around the globe with their families. As a result of this, TCKs were raised in a culture that is different from that of either their parents and/or their country of nationality. I have a podcast show, People Like Us, in which I interview …
You’ll be interested in working with me if you want to leverage your TCK experience to advance yourself in the workplace.
You’ll also want to work with me if you’ve become sick of moving and want to understand how to decide where to put down roots and call ‘home’.
There are a few ways in which we can work together.
I offer an initial 3 sessions as an introduction for TCKs to working with a coach. I usually find that 3 sessions is enough to make good progress on establishing what outcomes you really want and on beginning to formulate a plan of how to reach them.
If after the introductory sessions, we both feel that we’d like to keep working together, I offer a choice of a 6 session programme or a 12 session programme. In between sessions I’m available by email and WhatsApp. My clients are fully supported to reach their goals.
The outcomes my clients gain from 1:1 coaching are outstanding. Some clients have chosen places to call home and found their sense of belonging. Others have leveraged their TCK knowledge and experience to their advantage and developed careers that they love.

Jen’s group coaching programme is for younger adult TCKs. In 6 weeks, the group will explore the following topics, supported and coached by Jen, who has experienced all of these things herself and now supports others to take control of their lives.
