A Life Unravelled and Rebuilt

Portugal News Article

One woman’s journey from the US to Ecuador to the Algarve

Not all life changes are driven by external events. Some come from a quiet, internal truth that refuses to be ignored.”

I was thrilled to be featured locally in the Portugal News the August 9, 2025 Edition, page 23, in the Global Perspectives section. Kamila Sitwell, a correspondent for the Portugal News, and a friend and the founder of WIN Portugal, the largest women’s network in the Algarve, and founder of Epic Midlife, interviewed me and wrote the article.

Alicia’s journey offers quiet encouragement.
You do not need a catastrophe to justify your choice. You do not need everyone to understand it. You simply need to trust the knowing that refuses to go away. Her story is not just about leaving one place for another. It is about returning to yourself.

One step at a time.
