In this deeply engaging and insightful episode of Heart2Heart Senior Radio, host Juan Gallo welcomes Miriam Bahar, Founder of A Moving Experience, LLC, for an eye-opening conversation about the emotional, physical, and practical challenges that seniors face when it’s time to downsize or relocate.

As a certified Senior Move Manager through NASMM (National Association of Senior & Specialty Move Managers), Miriam shares how she serves as the "muscle" to a senior's "mind", helping them sort through decades of belongings, memories, and emotions—all with care, empathy, and a hands-on approach.

Juan and Miriam explore: ✅ What a Senior Move Manager really does—and why it’s so different from a traditional moving company
✅ How seniors often struggle with letting go due to grief, depression, or fear of losing identity
✅ Why hoarding, overbuying, and accumulation are often tied to emotional distress and loneliness
✅ The growing need for services like Miriam’s as families become more geographically and emotionally distant
✅ How Miriam partners with real estate agents, charities, mental health professionals, and more to become the "glue" holding a complicated transition together
✅ Real-life stories of seniors navigating transitions after losing a spouse or living in isolation

With a background in both nonprofit work and senior living administration, Miriam’s unique lens helps her approach every client like family. Whether she’s organizing a garage, sitting with someone who just lost their partner, or finding local charities to repurpose cherished items, her work goes far beyond moving boxes—it’s about restoring hope.

Miriam also introduces an important resource: safemovesforseniors.org, a nonprofit initiative that helps cover costs for vulnerable seniors in need of move management support.

🔹 If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to help someone let go of a home, or if you know a senior who needs help making a move, this episode is for you.
