The Settled-ish standard

Frequently asked, honestly answered.

No fine print you have to hunt for. Here is exactly how memberships, payments, coaching, and guides work — so you can choose with confidence.

“Support should feel personal, not like paperwork.” — the standard every answer below is held to.

01

Memberships & Community

Two ongoing ways to stay supported — here's how they differ.

Which membership is right for me?

Expat Community Membership is $15/month for ongoing connection: live Q&As, country-specific conversations, job-posting access, and peer support. Settled-ish is $25/month and adds structure — a private lesson library, downloadable worksheets, monthly focus prompts, and a member dashboard. Many members start with Expat Community and add Settled-ish once they're in-country and want more structure.

Can I have both memberships at once?

Yes. They're complementary, not exclusive — Expat Community is the ongoing conversation, Settled-ish is the structured curriculum. Join each separately through its own checkout link.

What's actually inside the Settled-ish lesson library?

Guided lessons with companion worksheets — starting with The First 90 Days, Belonging, Work & Money, and The First-Month Reset — plus new resources added monthly to the member dashboard.

Can I cancel my membership?

Yes, anytime. Both monthly memberships are cancel-anytime with no long-term contract. You keep access through the end of the billing period you've already paid for.

02

Payments & Access

What to expect the moment you check out.

What happens right after I pay?

Square confirms your payment immediately. Access instructions and any member delivery details are then sent to the email used at checkout, or confirmed personally by the Settled-ish team — usually within one business day.

Is checkout secure?

Yes. All payments run through Square's secure checkout. Settled-ish never sees or stores your card details.

Do you offer refunds?

Digital products (like the Starter Kit) and one-time sessions are generally final once delivered. Monthly memberships are cancel-anytime, so you're never locked into a future charge. If something isn't right, email catering2u@protonmail.com and we'll work it out with you directly.

How fast will I hear back after a purchase or message?

Within 1–2 business days, typically much sooner. Access to memberships and digital products is confirmed personally, not by an automated system.

03

Coaching & Services

One-on-one support, and how to start.

Do I need to book a call before purchasing?

No, not for memberships or fixed-price products like the Starter Kit — those are ready to go as soon as you check out. Coaching, parent support, insurance consultations, customer service training, ESL tutoring, and concierge services begin with a complimentary discovery call so we scope the right support first.

What happens on the discovery call?

It's a no-payment, 15–30 minute conversation about where you are, what you need, and whether Settled-ish is the right fit. You'll leave with a tailored scope and quote when appropriate — never a hard sell.

How is coaching different from the memberships?

Memberships are ongoing, self-directed, and community-based. Coaching is one-on-one, scheduled time focused on your specific move, career transition, or family situation.

Do you provide legal, immigration, or medical advice?

No. Settled-ish provides guidance and concierge support and does not replace licensed legal, immigration, medical, financial, or other regulated professional services. We'll help you organize the right questions to bring to a licensed professional.

04

Guides & Digital Products

Self-paced resources you can start today.

What's in the Move Abroad Starter Kit?

A self-paced PDF guide and interactive checklist covering your first 90 days: paperwork prompts, money, housing, logistics, and early-settling details, for a one-time $19.

How do I get the free Ultimate Relocation Checklist?

It's available through its own no-cost checkout link on the homepage — a one-page starting point for timing, documents, money, and your first 30 days.

When do I receive a digital product after purchase?

As soon as Square confirms your purchase, the PDF is sent to the email used at checkout — typically within minutes, confirmed personally if anything needs a manual send.

Still have a question?

We'd rather answer it directly than make you guess.

Send a message and we'll reply personally — usually within a day.
