Expats' Walkin: The Emotional Toll of Cultural Disconnection
Advertisement
Cultural disconnection is the emotional experience of feeling out of sync with the world around you. It's the invisible distance between you and the culture you're in, and sometimes even the culture you came from.
This meeting explores the emotional toll of cultural disconnection: how it shapes our self-image, relationships, and well-being. Together, we’ll reflect on the hidden impact of adaptation, and explore ways to reconnect with ourselves in a space that doesn’t always reflect who we are.
What to Expect:
🔹 Emotional Landscape – Explore how cultural disconnection can lead to identity confusion, emotional fatigue, and a sense of invisibility.
🔹 Belonging & Alienation – Reflect on the push-and-pull between assimilation and staying true to yourself.
🔹 Tools for Reconnection – Learn how to nurture your inner sense of belonging through emotional self-care, cultural rituals, and shared experiences.
Meet Your Facilitator:
