How to Make it Through Your First Year Abroad

How do you survive your first year living abroad? In this episode of 12 Years Out with Cole Puterbaugh, I talk about what actually matters during your first year overseas. Living abroad is not just about opportunity or freedom. It is an emotional shift where everything becomes more intense. The highs feel higher and the difficult moments feel heavier. I break down the role of community, why learning the language changes your experience, and how to balance comfort with discomfort. I also talk about why you need something to move toward, not just something you are trying to leave behind. This episode is for anyone considering moving abroad or trying to make sense of their first year living in a new country.

Who You Become When You Leave Home

Who do you become when you leave your home country? In this episode of 12 Years Out with Cole Puterbaugh, I explore how living abroad reshapes identity over time. You don’t just relocate—you begin to evolve into something different. Some people become builders, creating a new life in a new place. Others become returners, eventually pulled back home. And some remain in a constant state of transition, never fully rooted anywhere. Drawing on personal experience and real stories, I break down how these paths develop, why they happen, and what it takes to build a stable identity while living abroad. This episode looks at the deeper psychological and cultural shifts that come with leaving home—and what it means for your long-term sense of self.

What Culture Shock Actually Feels Like (After Year 1)

What does culture shock actually feel like after the first year abroad? In this episode of 12 Years Out with Cole Puterbaugh, I explore the deeper reality of cultural adaptation once the initial excitement fades. Culture shock isn’t just about confusion or discomfort—it’s about realizing that what you thought was “logical” is actually learned behavior shaped by your environment. Drawing on real experiences living abroad, I break down how small, everyday moments—like navigating a bank, crossing the street, or dealing with minor annoyances—reveal much larger differences in how people think and act. Over time, those small differences compound and begin to shape whether you can truly adapt to a new system. If you don’t develop new ways of interpreting the world around you, you won’t last. This episode looks at what it really takes to adjust, and why so many people struggle to do it.

jakson U.S. vs China Education Is the Wrong Question kansikuva

U.S. vs China Education Is the Wrong Question

Stop comparing education systems. Start analyzing incentives. In this deep-dive episode, Cole Puterbaugh argues that framing the discussion as U.S. vs China education is a fundamental mistake. Instead, we use a powerful organizing lens—Stakeholder Incentives leading to Educational Structure/Behavior, resulting in Student Outcomes—to explain why schools globally operate the way they do. Cole shares observations from living abroad—like third graders with two hours of homework and "open days" that prioritize performance over learning—to illustrate how systems shape behavior. The key takeaway? Different national pressures (pressure = performance in China, pressure = ideology/variability in the U.S.) lead to the same system behaviors: chasing metrics, avoiding risk, and ultimately creating disengaged students and misaligned priorities. This is the structured breakdown you need to understand the true design of modern schooling. The question isn't whether a system is good or bad, but who it is designed to serve. Keywords: Education comparison, US China schooling, Cole Puterbaugh, Leaving Home, educational reform, teaching to the test, stakeholder analysis, school administrators, parent pressures, student disengagement, global education systems.

Should You Leave Your Home Country? (What No One Tells You)

The Trade System Shift: Why Leaving Your Country Is Not an Upgrade (A Full Framework) In this deep dive, we challenge the popular narrative that moving abroad is the easy solution to dissatisfaction. Drawing on years of experience living in a foreign country, we argue that international relocation is not a linear upgrade but a fundamental "Trade System Shift." You are not just changing location; you are changing your social structure, cultural logic, and identity context. We lay out the 5 Core Tradeoffs—including Freedom vs. Belonging and Opportunity vs. Stability—that dictate success or failure abroad. We also explore the crucial "Timeline Distortion," where the early feedback is misleading, and the true costs only emerge years down the line. If you are considering an expat life, feeling tension in your current move, or know someone who keeps running from place to place, this framework will provide the clarity needed to choose a life structure, not just a place. Listen to understand the hidden, long-term costs of chasing novelty over depth.
