In this minisode we're going back to the origin story of in-betweenish, explaining why and how it came to be. It all started with a few simple questions about a decade ago:Where is home? What is a home?This lead me on a journey to discover the term Third Culture Kid (TCK). Researchers John and Ruth Useem, an American sociologist and anthropologist couple, first coined the term Third Culture Kids when they were living abroad in India with their family. According to Dr. Ruth Useem, being a Third Culture Kid explained “Children who accompany their parents into another culture [usually for a parent's career choice.]” Sometimes the term Adult Third Culture Kid, ATCK, is used to describe adults who had a TCK upbringing.Simple formula used to understand Third Culture Kids: A [parents' culture] + B [host country/countries culture(s)] = C [your own third culture]Years later, when doing research for the inception of the in-betweenish pod, I came across the more inclusive term Cross-Cultural Kids (CCK). This new model was researched and developed by Ruth E. Van Reken and encompasses more diverse experiences of people who exist across different cultures for any reason. In her research, Van Reken outlines 7 Cross-Cultural Kid categories and they are:Bi-racial/ bi-cultural childrenChildren of ImmigrantsChildren of RefugeesChildren of Minorities (Privileged or Marginalized)International AdoptionsTraditional Third Culture Kids  (Foreign Service Kids, Corporate Brats, Missionary Kids, Military Brats)Domestic Third Culture Kids If you recognize yourself in this CCK upbringing and you want to share your story, reach out to me directly.

In this converstaion with Mark Poehner (Marco), we cover a few topics such as his experience as a foreigner growing up in Colombia during a time of inmense violence . We also talk about his family dynamics and upbringing and his approach to parenting. We talk as well as his passion to reforestation and conservation of endagered forest species in Colombia. And how everything in life is intricately interconnected. Here is more about him in his own words: "It wasn't until I was in my 50s and read Third Culture Kids, by David C. Pollock and Ruth E. Van Reken, that I understood how growing up in Colombia and going to Colegio Bolívar molded my identity and social adaptation. Like many other CB students and alumni, I am a hybrid of two or more cultures, having entered Colombia at age 5, in January 1961. It was a bewildering introduction to a society at war with itself, with extremes and contrasts between wealth and poverty, ethnic diversity, natural beauty and abundance and the ugliness of the Violencia. My father, who had been born to missionary parents in Pereira, Caldas (1926, prior to the secession of Risaralda), also felt “called” to minister to the poor and downtrodden, so he ventured into the most remote regions, jungles and marginalized neighborhoods, where the refugees settled; and he took me with him. I formed deep bonds with the forests and pueblos of Colombia. I became a “grincolombiano” or “grindio.” On my 17th birthday I left home, Colegio Bolívar and Colombia, to make it on my own. Borrowing my airfare, I went to the USA, where I began working as a farm laborer, a dock worker, and even a janitor at my high school, to subsist. It took four years to afford college, where I felt out of place socially. I worked a few years as a journalist, then turned to teaching, first adults, then children. In my early 30s, in a crisis of identity, I returned to Colombia to explore my national affinity. Teaching some wonderful 4th grade classes at CB, from 1988 to 1991, I realized that I was both Colombian and USAmerican, and that it was my choice to embrace both. During that time I was offered an abandoned farm in upper Pance, above the town and the end of the road. I bought it in February 1989, borrowing from my retirement account. I devoted it to reforestation with native species, and to the conservation of endangered forest species. I learned the hard way, that the idealism of “self-sustained” farms takes 26-hr. workdays; so I kept the project going on my meager teacher budget. Dealing with the violence of my upbringing (frequent fighting in my neighborhood, ongoing disturbances in the countryside and the city), I pursued a different approach to relationships and communication. After marrying and becoming a father, I was given a mentor in “Effective Communication and Relationship Building.” I studied under Selwa Saíd for 17 years, learning how to teach and raise children without coercion, punishment or yelling, and to listen to the intent and desire of others in conflict. I thoroughly changed my approach to teaching and parenting. Now retired, I live between my two countries, between Cali and Central Coast California. Between forestry and surfing. As a hermit in the Farallones de Cali and as a dad on the Monterey Peninsula. As many other CB alumni, I'm a hybrid, a bridge builder, and hopefully a resource for a more peaceful and healthy future."

Welcome to this 40th episode of Navigate! This milestone episode marks the completion of three conversations -one with each of Tim's adult Third Culture Kids. By the way, if you're unfamiliar with the term Third Culture Kid, or TCK for short, have a listen to episode 39, where podcast guest  Chad Phillips does a great job of unpacking that for us.This episode conversation brings in Luke Austin. Luke has spent the majority  of his life outside of the United States, which happens to be his passport country. During his childhood and teen years, Luke roamed the globe with his parents, residing mostly in Central Asia and Turkey. Luke and his family returned to the U.S. in 2016, the summer he graduated from high school.Luke currently lives with his wife Maria in Chicago, where he works as a digital marketing team leader with an Orange County based company. The Austin family recently had the opportunity to return to Turkey for a brief visit, and this conversation takes place from there. As a heads up, there is an added touch of realism to this conversation. The context is outside on the terrace of the Austin's guest apartment, where Tim and Luke had some gusty winds to deal with. Nonetheless we think you're going to enjoy getting to know Tim's son Luke Austin…Here's some additional resources on the topic of TCK's:Podcast Episodes:Core Values with Adrianne VerheyenThird Culture Kids with Emma AustinThird Culture Kids and Transition with Chad PhillipsTCK Re-Entry/Transition:https://interactionintl.org/programs/transition-seminar/https://www.barnabas.org/member-care/events/mk-transitional-seminarBooks:Third Culture Kids: Growing Up Among Worlds, by David C.

Third Culture Kids or TCK's for short…Who are they and what defines them? How did the term originate? And why is it important for us to understand the unique opportunities and challenges they face? You'll hear about all of this and more with Tim's good friend and guest on the show, Chad Phillips. Chad Phillips is a TCK from South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and The Netherlands. He spent his first 18 years overseas. He also served TCKs internationally in Singapore and Belgium. Chad has been directing International Society of Missionary Kids (ISMK) since 2004, and continues to coach TCKs (and their families) on a global scale. He has an M.A. in Christian Ministries from AGTS, with an emphasis in life coaching and eight years of professional life-coaching experience.  After graduating high school from The American School of The Hague, Chad went to North Central University in Minneapolis, and did his internship in Singapore. It was during his college years that Chad met his beautiful bride, Dargan. Chad and Dargan are parents to two young adult TCK's, Katherine and Graham. TCK's are an amazing group of human beings. Tim and his wife Eve are parents to three TCK's, so they are definitely near and dear to his heart and the motivation for producing this series of episodes about TCK's.  What's your relationship to TCK's, or what could it be? What might be your call to action in response to this conversation? Raising awareness in your church community? Befriending a TCK? Reaching out to the parents of a TCK? Supporting those like Chad and Dargan Phillips who are on the front lines working with TCK's?  Praying for TCK's and their families as they adjust and acculturate to new situations and environments?Here's some additional resources on the topic of TCK's:Podcast Episodes:Core Values with Adrianne VerheyenThird Culture Kids with Emma AustinTCK Re-Entry/Transition:https://interactionintl.org/programs/transition-seminar/https://www.barnabas.org/member-care/events/mk-transitional-seminarBooks:Third Culture Kids: Growing Up Among Worlds, by David C.

I never talked to anyone about the nearly overwhelming, visceral longing that took over my quiet moments; I kind of assumed everyone felt the same intensity. Until I realized it was an expression of unresolved grief that had accumulated in my life.  “Clearly I’m someone who really needed the catharsis [of farewell events]. Because of my own unresolved grief, these goodbyes hit me probably harder than other people.” What can we as parents do to help our Third Culture Kids (TCKs) - and ourselves - process grief so it doesn’t crop up again later? In this episode I talk about  My own story of unresolved grief, Why we need to engage in mourning, How we may go wrong with encouragement, and more.
