transition coach | moving Podcast
moving forward together
Having moved 18 times in the last 24 years to 5 of America’s top cities, I became the coach I wish I had in my 20’s and 30’s. I’m bringing you my vast knowledge of the moving industry, life transitions, and exploring your dreams through a podcast, articles, keynotes and one-on-one coaching.
About Mariette Frey
Lovingly known as ‘The Martha Stewart of Moving’ amongst friends, I’m still learning as much as I’m teaching on the podcast!
There were so many cities I wanted to explore ‘when I grew up.’ Being the first in my family to graduate college and leave the rubberband radius around my grandparents, the world was my oyster and I took full advantage of getting relocated by my company.
I developed a framework called ‘FRED’ (scroll down) that’s been proven to work through the many friends and family members that I’ve guided over the last 22 years. Finances, Robustness (think mental & physical strength), Ecosystem and Dreams are the four key pillars. I start with the dream and reverse engineer myself and others through the rest of the categories. I found that it could be used in a lot of decisions! I have so many stories about the cities I’ve lived in, people I’ve met, and many friends in the moving industry that I felt compelled to share so I could help others who might not have an example to draw from.
Lighting the torch for those behind me, I’m blazing a trail for you to get over your fears and perceived obstacles so you can explore your dreams in a safe, methodical and let’s face it- fun way!
BUT…only YOU can choose…is it going to continue to be ‘one day…’ or day 1?

The FRED Framework
The FRED Framework is made for the independent but indecisive individual dreaming about moving…a step-by-step plan that will prepare you financially, mentally, physically, and through community, all while keeping your dreams of moving to a new city at the forefront of all of those areas. We start with your dreams and then reverse-engineer you into the rest!
F is for FINANCES
There are so many questions that need to be answered before you can see if it makes financial sense to move. Budgets, decluttering and selling stuff can be fun really fun when you have a carrott of joy dangling in front of your face.
R is for ROBUSTNESS
Let’s talk through what’s normal to feel during a move, what anxiety or emotions could arise, & how you can prepare to overcome them ahead of time. Moving is also physically taxing even if you are in good shape and hiring movers.
E is for ECOSYTEM
It’s easy to overlook the everyday conveniences that you currently have in your environment. If you don’t explore stuff like this ahead of time, you’re setting yourself up for the 6-Month-Funk and trust me friends, it can get ugly.
D is for DREAMS
Ambition is put on your heart for a reason- we’ll reverse engineer you into that life! Is this move getting me closer to achieving my spiritual, financial, creative, crazy, big, hairy, audacious goals and dreams? It better be!
Why Choose You
‘A Ship in Harbor Is Safe, But that Is Not What Ships Are Built For’ – John A. Shedd
Picture the energy that will run through your body when you finally feel fully free. There’s no risk in exploring. It could be amazing and magical. Be…do…have.
Yes, I’ve got long and short-distance moves under my sparkly belt, but if you don’t know what you don’t know, fear might hold you back. I know, some of my moves almost didn’t happen.
If you already push yourself too hard, a move can really push you over the edge. I’m a joyful mover. It’s so much more enjoyable when you know you’re making the right decision.
