I've been seeing more and more posts from people in local Facebook groups asking for resources or guidance in helping their aging loved ones, many related to how to help their loved one move into a space that works better for them.

It's one of the hardest, most emotional transitions a family goes through and most people are figuring it out with zero guidance.

That's why I host a free monthly workshop, Downsize with Ease. This month: Friday, 8/14 at 1PM, Brightview Avondell (just a few spots left!)

We'll talk through the a tried and true decluttering method, local housing & community resource options, and trusted resources for the process. No pressure, just help.

It's a free event but registration is required 👉 CHGWorkshops.com

If this is something your family is facing, come join us or send me a message anytime. 💛

1. Secure Outdoor Items
2. Check Trees & Branches
3. Clear Gutters & Drains

Ever tried bringing up downsizing or care options with your parents and it got... awkward? Yeah, we've all been there. 😅

I am hosting a super helpful (and judgment-free!) chat about how to actually have these conversations without anyone getting defensive or overwhelmed.

📅 Saturday, February 28th @ 11:00 AM
📍 800 S. Main Street, Bel Air

I am both a real estate agent AND an occupational therapist, so I get the whole picture- not just selling a house, but making sure the next place actually works for how your parents want to live (and how exactly we get through the in between).

Whether you're:

Worried about Mom navigating those stairs
Wondering when's the "right time" to bring this up
Just totally lost on where to even start ..this is for you!

Bring your parent, bring your questions, bring your sibling who's been avoiding the topic. Let's figure this out together.
