Your impulses, ideas and deeply held dreams are there for a reason. If you needed a sign to follow them and trust the process, let this one be it!!
When The Guardian reached out and asked if I’d contribute to their ‘The Experts’ series, I was delighted, but my expectations were low.
I assumed it would be a brief chat, I’d suggest a few tips, and we’d be done in 10 minutes. I wrote down my top five recommendations for folks planning a move and thought that would be more than enough.
That’s… not what happened 😂
We were on the phone for almost an hour. We talked about EVERYTHING. How to prepare for moving day, how to pack, the best boxes/bubble/tape to use, how to lift heavy items, what to eat, what to unpack first at the other end, how to emotionally handle the upheaval of moving home, and more.
And I realised, I knew much, much more than I thought I did.
It turns out, that thing you find easy and common sense? Not everyone else does. That’s why it’s YOUR thing.
So stop assuming that “everyone knows” the things you know about your area of expertise.
Stop assuming people don’t want to hear what you have to say.
Stop assuming you don’t belong with the experts.
Because I do. And so do you.
And if you’re planning a move soon and you can’t imagine anything worse than doing it on your own, gimme a call. We can get it done, and it’ll be easier than you ever could have imagined ❤️
