Book The Edit | Honest Perspective for Real Life

I'm Ashley!

I step in before a move to bring structure, clarity, and momentum to the process.

What I actually do

I’m a Pre-Move Planning Specialist who helps households get organized, decluttered, and fully prepared to sell or relocate — without the overwhelm that so often stalls the process. I work with homeowners, downsizers, and families navigating major transitions, stepping in during the crucial pre-move phase to create clarity, momentum, and a plan that actually gets executed.

I begin by assessing the home and the situation as a whole — timelines, emotional sticking points, volume of belongings, and listing goals — then design a clear, room-by-room strategy complete with decision frameworks, sorting systems, and realistic timelines. I’m hands-on where it matters most, working alongside clients to kickstart progress, break through indecision, and set up packing and organization systems that carry them through to moving day, with ongoing guidance so nothing stalls.

With a background in operations and systems design, I bring a project-manager’s mindset to the home, turning chaos into order and uncertainty into manageable next steps. My approach is calm, practical, and highly personalized, positioning me as a strategic partner during one of life’s most stressful transitions.

How I got here (the short version)

I’ve worn a lot of hats — business owner, strategist, consultant, creator, employee, manager, and more. Across every chapter, one thing kept showing up: people came to me when they felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure what to do next.

Over time, I realized I’m at my best when I’m turning complexity into clear plans — mapping next steps, creating systems, and helping people move forward without blowing up their lives in the process.

After personally moving more times than I can count, I've seen how much of the moving process actually breaks people: not the boxes — the decisions, the timelines, the emotional weight, and the feeling of not knowing where to start.

That’s what led me here.

Today, I use my operations background and systems-driven mindset to help households prepare for what’s next — calmly, practically, and with a plan that actually gets followed.
