Selling your home is a major life event, often filled with both excitement and anxiety. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Michael Griffith, a clinical psychologist with over 40 years of experience helping people manage stress in life’s most challenging moments. Dr. G shares expert advice on how to navigate the emotional rollercoaster of selling a home, whether you’re moving due to career changes, family transitions, or simply relocating with children. Plus, he offers practical tips on self-care, staying calm, and handling stress throughout the process.

On a personal note, Dr. G has also been a trusted therapist and friend to my wife Tammie and me, and his guidance has made a lasting impact on our lives. Join us as we dive into a conversation filled with practical advice and insights on how to manage stress during your home-selling journey.
