Everything around him had settled—but inside, he still feltlost.He had the house.His kids were thriving.His wife had embraced the new life.But John Chan couldn’t shake the feeling: “I was the only one who hadn’tarrived.”In Episode 8 of A Stranger, A Suitcase & A Story,John shares the quiet but deeply personal journey of starting over—not just ina new country, but in his own sense of identity.After a successful corporate career in South Africa, Johnmoved to Australia in search of a new life. On paper, it all made sense. Butbeneath the surface, he struggled with purpose, identity, and the weight ofinvisible expectations.This isn’t a story about escape—it’s a story aboutrealignment.He opens up about losing his professional self, navigatingthe disorienting middle space of migration, and slowly rediscovering meaningthrough entrepreneurship, contribution, and self-awareness.Today, he helps others find their voice, not because healways had his, but because he knows what it’s like to lose it.🎧 Episode 8 – NoRegret, Just PurposeNow streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and 3spod.com#StrangerSuitcaseStory #Episode8 #JohnChan #QuietStrength#MigrationWithMeaning #Entrepreneurship #LifeInAustralia #IdentityAndBelonging#NoRegretJustPurpose #3spod
