DIY home modifications empower aging in place while making homes safer, more comfortable, and more accessible. Smart, targeted improvements can be completed without professional help to transform your living space while saving money.

The heart of our discussion focuses on nine specific modifications most people can safely tackle themselves. For each project, we provide practical tips and reassurance that these changes can be made gradually to accommodate both physical energy and budget constraints.

Just as important as knowing what you can do yourself is recognizing when to call in professionals. We outline five categories of modifications best left to experts. Throughout the episode, we emphasize safety considerations, affordable alternatives, and the emotional benefits of taking ownership of these changes.

Thanks for listening!
