Personal growth often gets pushed aside.

When life becomes busy, we focus on everyone and everything else first.

Many people:

x feel stuck
x lose connection with their strengths
x stop investing in themselves
x don’t know where to begin
x wait until they feel “ready”

But growth rarely starts with having everything figured out.

It starts with one small step.

What is the SEEDS Framework?

A simple but powerful framework designed to support personal and professional growth through reflection, exploration and intentional action.

S - Start

Everything begins with one small step.
Start where you are.
Choose one thing that sparks your curiosity, energy or interest and begin building momentum.
E - Explore

Open yourself to new opportunities.
Explore new roles, ideas, skills, experiences and possibilities. Growth often starts outside of your comfort zone.
E - Eliminate

Create space for what truly matters.
Now eliminate what is not giving you enjoyment, what is getting the least amount of positive feedback, what is not growing.
D - Develop

Invest in yourself intentionally.
Develop what is growing, what gives you joy, what is receiving positive feedback.
S - Strategise

Create a vision for your future.
You are now in a position to strategise for the long-term a personal or professional plan looking for mentors and deciding on any further training you might need.

Start planting your SEEDS

Hi, my name is Rhoda.

I am a specialist in split family assignments and frequent business travel and their impact on family life. I help parents manage the stress and disconnect from living this life so that they can enjoy the growth and intention this lifestyle can bring.

International organisations (foreign service, military, humanitarian and private organisations) are increasingly aware of the specific requirements for staff and their families when on non-family duty stations. Through talks and workshops, I help organisations, such as the World Food Program, support their employees when they are regularly sent on international assignments from a month to a couple of years without their partners and children.

Having experienced both frequent work travel and a split family assignment from the point of view of the ‘holding the fort partner’, I have developed research based strategies to ensure that families can thrive and be “together even when geographically apart”.

I am regularly invited to share about the challenges, pitfalls of living as a family with a partner absent for work and I share insights into what can be done to live this life successfully on podcasts such as Nomadic Diaries and ‘Where Are You From? And Other Ridiculous Questions’. I am also part of the Global Family Library by Expat Valley.

SEEDS is a simple, flexible framework designed for those who’ve put their own path on hold while supporting a partner’s career.

If you are not sure what you skills you want to develop or you are unsure of where your passions lie, this framework helps you take small, meaningful steps towards something that’s yours - whether that’s a future career, a passion, or personal growth.

Through five stages - Start, Explore, Eliminate, Develop, Strategise - you begin where you are, test what fits, and build forward at your own pace.

START YOUR GROWTH JOURNEY

Available for CHF 39 as a standalone workshop and pre-recorded video, SEEDS is a practical first step to start planting something for yourself - no matter your time, energy, or circumstances.

Inside the program:

⭐ A calm, reflective training experience guiding you through the framework step by step.

⭐ Practical exercises, prompts and reflection pages to help you apply what you learn.

⭐ Access to all future updates and additional resources.

⭐ Self-Paced access: Move through the framework in your own time and revisit it whenever needed.
