Love It or Leave It: How to Decide What’s Next for Your Home—and Your Life

Available Now | Click HERE to Get Your Copy Today


Life is short. What are you waiting for?

The kids are gone.
The house is quieter than it’s ever been.
And for the first time in decades, you finally have the space to ask the question you’ve been avoiding:

Is this still the life I want—and is this still the house that life needs?

If you’ve been feeling stuck, uncertain, or restless about your home, here’s the truth:
You’re not stuck. You’re at a crossroads.

And that crossroads has a name: Love It or Leave It.


What Does “Love It or Leave It” Really Mean?

At this stage of life, your home should support you—not weigh you down.

Love It means intentionally transforming your current home to fit the way you live now.
That could look like:

  • Smarter updates that make daily life easier

  • Lower-maintenance living

  • Spaces designed for comfort, connection, and longevity

Leave It means selling your home and stepping into something that aligns better with this next chapter:

  • Less square footage

  • A different neighborhood or lifestyle

  • A home built for freedom, flexibility, and simplicity

👉 Both paths are valid. Both paths lead to peace.
But only one is right for you.


Why This Decision Feels So Hard (And Why You’re Not Alone)

So many homeowners stay frozen—not because they don’t want change, but because they’re overwhelmed by it.

Common questions we hear every day:

  • What if I regret leaving?

  • What if renovating costs more than it’s worth?

  • What will my family think?

  • Am I making the “wrong” decision financially?

This is where endless overthinking takes over—and where clarity is desperately needed.

That’s exactly why Love It or Leave It was created.
