Q: What is the main operational difference between traditional moving and specialty move management?→ A: Specialty move managers handle floor planning, sorting, packing, unpacking, and complete home organization tailored to client needs. Q: Why do adult children encounter emotional pushback when helping parents downsize?→ A: Because aging parents naturally resist role reversals and feeling parented by their own adult children. 🎧 HOSTED BY: Amrita Khurana 👤 GUEST:  Jami Shapiro is the President of the National Association of Senior & Specialty Move Managers (NASMM), the founder of Silver Linings Transitions, and an ADHD coach.

    Lindsay Smith: Ditch the Perfect Plan, Build Her Way Forward Instead

    🎙Your career just fell apart with zero warning. Lindsay Smith says that's exactly when your reinvention begins  Your career just fell apart with zero warning. Lindsay Smith says that's exactly when your reinvention begins. For women stuck in impostor syndrome, comparison spirals, or a life transition they never planned for, the hardest part isn't the change itself, it's believing they're allowed to want something different. Host Amrita Khurana, a New Jersey Realtor with Keller Williams, brings real conversations about identity and reinvention to women rebuilding their lives. Amrita Khurana's guest, Lindsay Smith, led a 500-plus agent real estate brokerage in Charlotte, North Carolina, before her CEO role ended unexpectedly in January 2026 and instead of spiraling, Lindsay Smith built Her Way Forward, an in-person community for women in transition.
