Move With Rose ~ Q1 Newsletter
Lately, the world feels chaotic. (understatement of the century!)
The news cycle moves fast. The headlines are heavy. There’s a lot happening globally, nationally and right here at home.
When things feel uncertain, overwhelming, or just plain exhausting, one thing becomes even more clear:
Community matters.
Not the abstract kind. The real kind. The kind where neighbors show up. Where we check in. Where we share resources. Where we gather on sidewalks, at open houses, at parks, at kitchen tables…Community is more than a transaction. It’s belonging. It’s stability. It’s connection. It’s knowing the people around you.In heavy times, we don’t shrink. We root deeper. We reach for each other.

Nineteen sets of keys handed over.
Nineteen new beginnings.
Thank you for being part of my story.
🏆 Top 10% Senior Executive Associate
Honored to be awarded Windermere Landpark’s 2025 Company Top 10% Senior Executive Associate. Grateful for the trust of my clients and community that makes milestones like this possible.
💌 What I’ve Been Up To
The start of the year has been full in the best way.
I’ve been hosting open houses, meeting with buyers, navigating interest rate shifts, advising out of town sellers on strategy, and having honest conversations about what stability really looks like right now.
MLK March
Bravery means you do it anyway.
January 7, an ordinary day.
Lunch with neighbors. A walk. A life in motion.
Then a scroll and Renee Good, gone, murdered.
Violence where there should have been breath.
Shock, outrage, tears.
That old, aching question: when will this end?
Soon after, I traveled to North Dakota for a funeral.
Grief on grief.
Carrying loss through a place shaped by different beliefs,
holding my own quietly, tenderly.
When I came home, I walked.
The annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day March, a tradition, a return.
It felt good to be held by community again,
even as the knowing lingered:
that this society was built to protect the few, the wealthy,
and leave so many exposed.
Someone at the march spoke this sentence aloud “bravery means you do it anyway”
and it stayed with me, settling in my soul.
So I made this sign.
Not because I am fearless,
but because I am here.
Because speaking still matters.
Because showing up still matters.
❄️ North Dakota
My first time walking on a lake and I made a snow angel.
Went ice fishing and caught a fish in under three minutes!
Hugged a few trees for good measure.
🎞️ No Address Film Screening
I watched ‘No Address’ and it landed straight in my chest.
As someone whose dad lived outside, this film felt painfully, beautifully accurate. It didn’t look away. It didn’t flatten people into statistics or “problems.” It showed people living outside as who they are: humans, neighbors, loved ones, full of stories and dignity.
So much of what I saw mirrored real life; the complexity, the tenderness, the trauma, the resilience. It reminded me how thin the line is, and how easily any of us could end up without an address in a system that so often fails people.
The film was hosted in the most beautiful space by Dreams Unlimited, whose work bringing people together, fostering connection, and showing up for their community feels just as important as the stories on screen. Spaces like this matter. Gathering like this matters.
I also learned about how Elk Grove is doing the work, providing wraparound services, mental health care, and real support so residents aren’t just housed, but held.
🫂 Quality Time
Grateful for lunches with my lovely neighbors. Home is a space to invite connection and sharing a meal is a great way to do so!
I always have time to say hi to my fuzzy neighbors as well!
💫 At The Show
Snuck away to San Francisco to see Whitney perform and amazing show at The Independent. I love a night of live music in the city.
