Found in Mexico

"From the author of Moving to Mexico with Kids"

A Family's Journey to Health, Work, and Peace South of the Border

What happens when a family stops chasing "more" - and starts searching for enough?

Found in Mexico is an honest, deeply human memoir about leaving behind a fast-paced American life and learning how to live again in a place that moves at a different rhythm. It's the story of what happens after the boxes are unpacked, the excitement fades, and the real work of starting over begins.

This is not a guide filled with paperwork checklists or perfect plans.
It's the real story - the fear, the doubt, the mistakes, and the quiet moments that change everything.

After crossing the border with children, dreams, and unanswered questions, one family learns that moving to Mexico isn't about escaping life - it's about rebuilding it. From finding work without a traditional job, to managing money in a new currency, navigating healthcare without insurance, helping kids adjust emotionally, and learning patience in a culture that runs on its own time, this book explores the parts of the journey few people talk about.

Along the way, they discover something unexpected: peace doesn't come from having everything figured out. It comes from learning to let go.

• A candid look at what family life in Mexico actually feels like
• The emotional reality of starting over with children
• Lessons learned from financial uncertainty and creative work
• Honest experiences navigating healthcare without insurance
• The cultural shift from urgency to presence
• The mistakes they made - and what they would do differently
• Reflections on community, belonging, and slowing down

Found in Mexico is for parents who feel stretched thin, for families wondering if a different life is possible, and for anyone standing at the edge of a major change asking, "What if?"

It's not about having the perfect plan.
It's about finding courage in the unknown - and discovering that sometimes, the life you're searching for isn't ahead of you at all.

Sometimes, it's waiting quietly... in a place you never expected.
