   S3:E10 All About Home

   For the first time this season, Relocurious asked every guest the same question: Where is home for you? The answers were — as Kathy puts it — beautiful, glorious, contradictory chaos. No two were alike. In this solo season finale, Kathy sits with all eight answers and tries to make sense of what they have in common, what they reveal about belonging, and what she’s learned about her own answer after a season of asking everyone else. She also looks ahead to Season 4, and the question that’s been getting louder the more we talked about home: Who are you, once you get there? Specifically, how does a big move change your creative self? We hope you enjoy this season finale. We’re taking a short break over the summer and will be back in the fall with all new episodes exploring creativity and relocation. Are you dreaming about relocating? Newly arrived?

   S3:E9 Nerida Williams - On Saying "Yes".

   Nerida’s story isn’t about a single bold leap from one country to another, rather, it details a life in which moving has simply always been part of the picture. As the daughter of a diplomat, her first international relocation came at age seven, when her family moved from Australia to Malaysia. She didn’t choose it, but it shaped her profoundly. Since then, she has lived in seven countries, spending more of her life abroad than in her native Australia — first through her upbringing, and later through her career in international development and human rights. What makes Nerida’s perspective so compelling is the lightness she brings to questions that feel heavy to many people: Where is home? Where do I belong? Rather than holding tightly to one place or one answer, she has developed an openness to new cultures, new versions of home, and new opportunities as they come. In this episode, Nerida reflects on how moving early in life shaped her relationship with attachment, planning, and belonging — leaving her free to say “yes” to new possibilities.

   S3:E8 A Life in Motion – Nick's Story

   In this special three-part series, Relocurious explores relocation through the perspectives of three members of the same family. When Darren joined the Canadian Foreign Service, it set in motion a series of international moves that would shape the lives of his wife Heather and their son Nick as well. Across three episodes, we hear each of their perspectives on the same family relocations — revealing how differently shared events can be lived and remembered. In the first episode, Darren reflected on relocation through the lens of career and public service. Next, we heard Heather’s experience of moves with young children, and creating a meaningful career for herself. This week, we meet Nick, one of Darren and Heather’s sons, who was just a toddler when he moved for the first time. Part 3: A Life in Motion – Nick’s Story In this final episode of our three-part family series, we hear from Nick, whose childhood unfolded across continents, cultures, schools, and friendships as his family moved through his father’s career in the Canadian Foreign Service. Nick made his first international move to Honduras as a toddler – long before he had a say in the matter. But it was a later move, around the age of 10 or 11, that proved more difficult, as relocation began to collide with a growing sense of identity and belonging. In our conversation, Nick reflects on the tension between disruption and possibility. At an age when friendships and familiarity matter deeply, moving can feel like a loss — bringing frustration, grief, and resistance. And yet, over time, those same experiences can open unexpected doors: new interests, new communities, and a broader sense of self. Nick’s perspective highlights how repeated moves can foster adaptability, perspective, and a unique kind of freedom — the ability to start over and create something new. Together with Darren’s and Heather’s stories, his voice completes a layered portrait of what relocation looks and feels like from within a family — and how differently it can be experienced across a lifetime. About Nick Nick works in technology partnerships, with a current focus on data activation, integration, and agentic AI. In his spare time, he enjoys snowboarding, fussing over his cat, and actively participating in Vancouver’s music scene as a performer, promoter, and co-founder of an event production group and party series called Step Out, which he runs with his partner, Leah. Having moved multiple times before eventually settling in Vancouver, Nick developed an appreciation for starting over and creating new realities for himself — a skill that continues to shape both his professional path and personal growth.
