What really happens behind the scenes when families must empty a lifetime of memories? In this deeply personal and emotionally rich conversation, host Jennifer Rosen sits down with Emily Segal — co-owner of The Estate Settlers — to explore the human side of estate liquidation. From handling family dynamics to walking into homes left untouched after a parent’s passing, Emily shares the highs and heartbreaks of her work with remarkable warmth and honesty. You’ll learn what goes into preparing a home for resale, how to handle disagreements between adult children, and why Emily refuses to take a job that doesn't make ethical or emotional sense for the client.
Through stories that range from hilarious to heartbreaking, this episode invites listeners to reflect on aging, legacy, and what truly matters when it’s time to let go. Whether you’re supporting aging parents, navigating tough decisions, or just curious about the logistics and emotions of downsizing, this conversation will stay with you. Get ready to rethink how we part with possessions — and how we show up for the people we love in life’s most vulnerable moments.
