Der Schritt ins Flugzeug war damals kein leichter für Becky Hellwig. Die kalifornische Großstadt mit Partyleben und einem erfolgreichen Job tauschte die Amerikanerin gegen ein kleines Dorf in Sachsen. Kulturschock mit Schockstarre?Hätte es werden können. Von der Hand zu weisen ist es sicher nicht ganz, dass manchmal doch die Sehnsucht an die alte Heimat da ist. Und dennoch hat Becky Hellwig in wenigen Jahren nicht nur sich selbst neu, sondern auch eine neue Heimat gefunden. -- Mit unserem Fachkräfteportal sind wir die erste Anlaufstelle, wenn Sie nach Sachsen ziehen, zurückkehren oder ankommen wollen: www.heimat-fuer-fachkraefte.de    Für unterstützen unsere Wirtschaftsakteur:innen im Freistaat: www.heimat-fuer-fachkraefte.de/heimat-fuer-unternehmen

Episode 6: What makes us who we are and how does who we are change when we move from one environment to a completely different one? How much of our identity is influenced by the places we live, the routines we have, the things we do? And if those routines and things are no longer an option...who do we become then? How do we hold on and let go at the same time?⠀ In this episode, I talk to Becky Hellwig, self-professed city girl from Silicon Valley who 3 years ago for various reasons moved from Silicon Valley to a small rural town in Germany. Feeling like a fish out of water, she talks about the challenges in transitioning from a big city to a rural village, how she felt so disconnected and her struggle to figure out how to keep who she was while embracing who she could be in this new environment. So much of what Becky equated with her identity was no longer an option. No one dressed up or went anywhere in rural Germany - there was no place to go. For a blogger who would go to big parties in Silicon Valley and served as a quasi-tour guide for people visiting the city, having nowhere to go really impacted her sense of belonging. Hear her story as she talks about her initial days, her life in Silicon Valley compared to rural Germany and what she ultimately had to do to embrace where she was instead of where she used to be.⠀
