Take it Personally
(Especially When It’s About Your Home)
We’ve all been told not to take things personally.
Rejection? Don’t take it personally.
Feedback? Don’t take it personally.
Someone didn’t love your house after a showing? Don’t take it personally.
But here’s the truth:
When it comes to your home—the place where you’ve lived, loved, cried, cooked, hosted, decorated, and dreamt—you absolutely should take it personally.
Because it is personal.
🏡 This Isn’t Just Property. It’s Personal History.
The wall with the height marks from when your kids were little.
The nook where you curled up with your favorite book.
The kitchen you renovated with the butcher block counters you insisted on.
Those things matter—even if a buyer can’t see them yet.
So if your stomach flips when someone says the layout is “awkward” or the wallpaper is “a lot,” I get it.
You’re not being dramatic. You’re being human.
❤️ Taking It Personally Means You Care
Here’s the wild thing: when people say not to take something personally, what they really mean is “don’t let it hurt your feelings.”
But taking it personally doesn’t have to mean pain—it can mean passion.
Take it personally when:
You choose an agent who actually listens to what you need.
You decide not to settle for a home that doesn’t feel right, even if it checks all the boxes.
You say no to an offer that doesn’t align with your goals, even if someone tells you you're “being emotional.”
This isn’t just a transaction. It’s your life. Of course it’s personal.
🪄 You Deserve an Experience That Feels Personal Too
Not cold.
Not corporate.
Not full of vague updates and auto-generated emails.
You deserve a process that feels like you—with a real human (hi, it’s me 👋🏼) who understands that this move is more than just paperwork and packing tape.
Whether you’re buying, selling, upsizing, downsizing, or starting fresh, your story matters. Your comfort matters. Your why matters.
✨ So Yes—Take It Personally
Because your home is not just a house.
Because you’re not just a number.
Because your life, your memories, and your next chapter deserve to be treated with care.
And if someone tells you to stop taking it so personally? Smile. And do it anyway.
