Welcome to the show. I’m your host. Today’s story comes from The Verge: “What I Learned When I Helped My Mother Move.” Moving is stressful. As the author says, “It’s not you—it’s the process.” There are inspections, negotiations, stacks of paperwork. Treat it like a research project: read guides, track details in Notion or a spreadsheet. When hiring help, trust your gut. One lawyer told her, “Just sign it,” without reading? Big red flag. Expect bumps in the road. When a sale fell through, they walked away and found that “sometimes good enough works.” And when buyers complained about a low-flow toilet, her lawyer advised, “Live your life.” So she paid the $200 and moved on. Finally, homes change. The garden that survived Hurricane Sandy was gone. She reminds us: moving means changing your life. Build new memories in your next home. Thanks for listening, and remember, moving may be messy, but it’s also a fresh start.
