Hey everyone, it's Lisa here! 🌸 I recently made a big move from California to Florida, and I wanted to share my journey with you. In this video, I'll discuss why I decided to move, the experience of driving across the country, and the good and not-so-good parts about settling into a new state.
Over the past two years, I've gone through significant changes-both personal and professional. From hitting all-time highs and lows in my business, writing a book, going through a divorce, to losing my grandma and starting a new relationship-it's been a whirlwind. This move was a way for me to shake things up and find a new path.
I'll also talk about the actual process of moving, the challenges we faced, and what I've learned from the experience. Whether you're considering a move yourself or just curious about what it's like to relocate across the country, I hope you find this video insightful and encouraging.

you should dispute the charges from the moving company. i got multiple estimates when i moved in December and the price i was what i paid with no surprise charges. they asked about using shuttle vs 18 wheeler in advance for both loading & unloading. they know that a big truck can't fit down every street & you should've been advised of that. i hope you used a credit card & if you did, then dispute it thru them. And if you move again, make sure you use a company that sends someone to your home in advance & go thru every room in your house to point out exactly what will be going. they can give you a quote on the spot. that is what you pay and nothing more. i hate to say this but i think you were taken advantage of. i really hope you didn't tip these people bc that sounds like an awful experience.

Frey!! ❤ I want a home community like that. I think we had that in CA in the 90’s but feel like it’s not around anymore.

@BorderlandsBakery Месяц назад

There's a house down the street that was for sale. I'll keep me eyes peeled for you ;)

We had a similar moving experience from NJ to FL 21 yrs ago. That was with a large national moving company so it’s disappointing to hear things in that industry haven’t changed 🤨 I’m a hobby baker who lives very close to Orlando. Welcome! Feel free to ask any questions about the area.

@BorderlandsBakery Месяц назад

OMG!! Thank you for the welcome and sorry t hear about moving. I have only talked with ONE person who had a "decent" experience AKA things happened as expected, which is such a low bar! Please come join us at fabbaker.com for a class one day- would LOVE to meet you

Oh man, moving cross country is TOUGH. I kept deciding to get rid of things that I knew would cost more to move than to re-buy when we got there. Congratulations on the move!

@BorderlandsBakery Месяц назад

Thank you!!!!

@user-sd8de7sj6u Месяц назад

So great to hear how your move went... will always value the opportunity we had to connect in person last year. Your journey of growth & transformation continues to inspire... thank you for sharing. I can't wait to see you in Sept in TX! ♥️Lisa in SoCal

@BorderlandsBakery Месяц назад

SO GLAD we got to spend a little time together and I still have about half a bottle of your amazing Olive Oil - been saving it for fresh bread and it's incredible Looking forward to seeig you in Tx!

@moorecookiesplease Месяц назад

I’ve yet to figure out (just based on the tax structure, politics are a complete other rabbit hole that I won’t get into) why anyone would (or can!) afford to stay in California. Florida has its own shade of crazy, no doubt. I like to visit California - beautiful place, but find everything so cost prohibitive. We are in ATL metro now, but don’t intend to stay here either and hope to move to the midwest (north TX or Oklahoma) in the next two years. Moving (and especially long distance moving) is an absolute PITA, but we will definitely be hiring movers. We’ve moved ourselves cross country more than once and I swore in our last move (DC to Atlanta) that we would *never* move ourselves again. haha!!

Welcome to Florida Lisa!! Looking forward to hearing how you settle in. I'm up in the panhandle of Florida but if I ever get down that way I'll let you know cause it would be great to meet you in person since I've followed you on IG and shopped from your business in the past.

@mickeyd8273 Месяц назад

welcome to Florida! I just moved here (other coast) in December after living in NY/NJ my whole life. not quite as big a move for me but still a big adjustment.

@BorderlandsBakery Месяц назад

Ahh!! Where are you living now in Florida? How do you like it?

@mickeyd8273 Месяц назад

@@BorderlandsBakery i'm in Delray Beach & i do like it. altho ask me in August & Sept when it in the 90's with 100% humidity every day. i think i'm just a couple hours from where you teach so i'm hoping to catch a class or 2 sometime soon!

We made a similar move to Oklahoma from SoCal 2 years ago. Thankfully, we had a great moving co. They weren't brokers, they were the movers. We had the hard working man I've ever seen as our driver and "head mover". They did subcontract young men from our area to help unpack under our driver's supervision. I'm also glad that you are seeing that most people, despite what the media wants you to believe, don't care about skin color. We judge people on their character & actions. Unfortunately, they keep pushing the narrative because they want to keep us divided. We just have to keep proving them wrong. And, believe it or not, our upper middle-class neighborhood in Tulsa/ Broken Arrow is also very diverse - Black, White, Hispanic, Russian, Ukrainian, Middle Eastern, Asian and most of the "whites" have Native American blood, as well. But, not many Italian-Americans like myself - lol, so I'm having trouble finding quality Italian ingredients 😢.

Florida housing prices are going down. Hopefully you are renting right now.

@BorderlandsBakery 28 дней назад

Definitely renting (and honestly cannot afford to buy, rebuilding after divorce). I’m not sure if this is forever home but we shall see over the next few years! 🫶

It's a red state is a GOOD thing. Blue people should stay in those bubbles, no real animus intended, I love everyone, but because they muck up the red state's GOOD qualities if they reach critical mass. They sometimes FLEE the crap the blue state has precisely BECAUSE it is blue, that's how they roll, they are their own demolition crew. Then , incredibly, they want to muck up wherever it is that they move to, then complain because the cannot connect the dots that it is precisely the BLUE mindset that is the problem, no offense, dear, you're young, chances are you'll figure this out. So many anti communist Chinese get it, what's up with YOU? . Glad you're at least open minded. Orlando is pretty blue, actually.
