We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Cindy Bush a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Cindy , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?

When people ask me what made me want to start Simply Shift LLC, often times I get a strange look when i tell them “It was my calling” until they hear my full story. A few years back I helped a man named Mare get off the streets from being homeless. This was the same man who had tried to help me with a flat tire a few years prior to him becoming homeless. I strongly believe God was hitting me in the face to help him out the day I was driving and saw Mare with his bike and a
“disabled/homeless” sign at the bus stop. I had to stop by and find out what happened and how l could help the same sweet soul that tried to help me a few years back.
After hearing his story I wanted to help. I posted a Facebook page about Marc asking if people would be willing to drop off food, clothes, a few dollars, (anything to help out). I didn’t realize the amount of messages I was going to receive from this post and was overwhelmed with gratitude by how many people wanted to donate items and contribute in some way. I found my calling having friends, family, the community, people l had not spoken to in years, and even random strangers near and far that wanted to help. We raised about $5,000 and were able to get Marc out of the cold just in time before Christmas and set up his apartment for him with clean clothes, toiletries, food, and bedding.
The pictures I have added include a sign with everyone’s name that contributed for Mare. and
pictures of his apartment I found and was able to set up with my family and friends. My children, husband, and dad came to surprise Marc and share the exciting news. Back then, I would randomly wake up at 4am wide awake ready to see what else I could plan and how I could help Marc. In a lot of ways, it came naturally to me because I felt I had a purpose.
using my natural gifts and doing
what i love: giving back. I want to be the person I want my children to grow up and be and set a good example for them so that they have these same values.
You know when you’ve found your calling; it’s when you enjoy your work so much that you forget what’s going on around you.
Your calling is something you can do for hours on end without being
pushed or getting bored.
The incentive to do the job comes from within you naturally.
I am thrilled to be able to do what I love for a living: help seniors decide what to hold onto, what to let go of and help them through the overwhelming process of moving to the next place they call It brings me so much joy to see from start to finish having an apartment set up and working through all of the stressful and overwhelming challenges that moving entails for seniors and their loved ones. I look forward to helping you “Simply Shift” to the next place you plan to call home!

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
