16. How to Find Your Dream Living Location in Midlife & Beyond With Margaret Vandergriff
Have you ever dreamed about relocating to a new town or city? Maybe you're newly an empty-nester or just looking for a change in mid-life or beyond. Packing up your life and moving to a new place can be scary and exciting at the same time.
If you are thinking about relocation, this episode is for you! My guest, Margaret Vandergriff, is the founder of a program called "Your Place Finder" - helping people in mid-life find their new dream place with intention. Margaret is no stranger to relocation. When she first relocated to Iowa, she quickly learned from her own mistakes. This experience and 'aha moment' led her to start her program - where she created a roadmap for individuals looking to do the same.
This episode shows that inspiration for a business can come from anywhere - particularly your own unique experiences. We talk about finding your niche and the importance of refining it, tips on starting your search for a new location, and dive into Lynette & Margaret's personal experiences with moving.
