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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
