"Take the Stress Out of Your Military Move and Learn All You Need to Know About Making New Friends! "

Servicemembers assigned to a CONUS or OCONUS location and Trailing Spouses ,

Are you about to embark on a PCS move, or have you recently done so?

Moving, in general, is a big and annoying process!  You have to uproot yourself, your belongings, and basically start your life all over again. The hardest part about doing this is making new friends.  You miss everyone back home, you’re tired, you’re busy or bored depending on whether you PCS-ed or you’re following a loved one, and then there’s the fact that you’re in the middle of two worlds.

You’ve got your life on the base where you have social activities available, but a limited number of people to meet.  Surely, you’ll find people with whom you have things in common, but if you’re going to live on this base for a few years, then you probably want to have other resources to consider, and ideas to meet people outside the base.

But, outside the base you may confront different languages, different cultures, and a whole new world you don’t know how to break into.

 

Here's How to Overcome the Challenge of Making New Friends After Your Military Relocation!

Hi, I'm Heather Markel.

I've lived in many different places in my life and gone through the ups and downs of starting new friendships. I remember how hard it was to come home after work, have nothing to do but watch TV, and be desperate to talk to a friend about how bad my day was and how lonely I felt, only to realize that with the time difference between us, I'd be awaking them at 3am and therefore felt I couldn't reach out to anyone.

I would meet people here and there but find myself even lonelier when I realized we had nothing in common apart from needing a friend or commiserating how alone we felt. Sometimes I'd talk to friends back home and found they were sympathetic but didn't really understand what I was going through, so I didn't always get the support I needed.

I'd be jealous watching groups of friends laughing and spending time together while I sat alone eating lunch or dinner, wondering how I might find my own group of friends to socialize with.

Confronting my own loneliness and suffering, I started to use a bunch of strategies to meet new people and when I moved again, I realized that the same strategies were effective again in meeting great new people. I've also recreated my local social network time and time again wtih the same techniques because staying in one place for a while, I've had great friends move on with their lives and move to different places.

I've worked with many expatriates and have watched them go through the same things I did, and have been able to help them avoid all the challenges I did and make friends quickly, rather than flounder for months or even longer.

The issues you will face as a member of the Armed Forces are very similar - you may find yourself feeling isolated and overwhelmed when it comes to starting a new social network.

Though social networks are not created overnight , you can dramatically shorten how long it takes with a core set of strategies, and thus avoid periods of loneliness and isolation!

That's why I decided to write down the hurdles you need to overcome, the strategies to help you succeed, and the formula to success into an eBook where you have access to everything you need for your own social success!

 

Transform Challenge Into Success!

 

If you're feeling overwhelmed, alone, and frustrated when it comes to making friends, you're not alone! Making new friends is the number 1 challenge after relocating .

It's a sad fact that many people become lonely and feel isolated after moving to new shores because they don't know anyone nearby, and they have no idea where to start looking for new friends. I've seen a lot of people fail to prepare for this core need before they move, and they end up so wrapped up in these feelings of loneliness and isolation that they simply lose all motivation to even try to connect.

Even if you may be relocating "against your will", you will, ultimately, want to be surrounded with friends, and a local, supportive social network. To fully integrate to a new place, and learn to feel at home, you will need to meet new people, form new friendships, and feel inspired to explore the world around you.

Just outside your door, there are wonderful, and fascinating people you'll have the opportunity to meet. All you have to do is know a few key strategies to get your social network started!

Here's How to Overcome the Challenge of Making New Friends After Moving!

Picture how happy you'd be if you no longer had to worry about feeling alone, or who to call for help or advice when you need it.
