Nancy’s talk entitled “Design Your Second Half – Uncover Dreams & Reconnect with Joy” was inspired in 2015 when Nancy and her husband downsized from their home in San Marino and moved to a small home in Newport Beach, selling 80% of what they owned, embracing a new lifestyle, and loving it. She specializes in helping clients navigating big changes – whether it is to a condo in town, that ocean view they always wanted, or remodeling to create an environment that better supports their needs.

Nancy’s talk promises to lead you on a journey to override the voice in your head and uncover the wisdom that is already inside of you. It will awaken forgotten dreams and nurture new desires; will dissolve the fear that is sabotaging your best lifestyle; and will help you know the next steps for creating an environment that supports you.
