Moving to Italy

Currently, most of my day to day activites revolve around the decluttering piece. It's more emotional than I've imagined, so I'm working on separating the decision-making from the doing, and then allocating my time/energy appropriately.

Since I'm the one who led this change, I feel like my job is to be the cheerleader for all Italy-related activities. That's tough - I'm experiencing the same mixed emotions as my family does.

The move target is mid-August, 2026. There are a few moving pieces in this project:

• Financials, taxes planning
• Finding a place to live in Italy (Torino)
• Finding a school for the kids
• Decluttering, selling, donating items in the US
• Selling the house
• Phone, mailing address
• Business continuity (my coaching business)
• Learning Italian
• Saying goodbye

Each of these will have its own action items and considerations.

Figured I will start journaling the different decisions and updates around this project.

Yes, I've created a spreadsheet, and I also have a few supporting to-do lists. I'll keep updates here relatively short.

I thrive on questions and feedback, so please feel free to drop me a note.
