About Lemon Aide Consulting

Owner Amy Lemon is on a mission to provide for others what she and her siblings were able to give their mother - peace of mind in a safe, organized, and cozy home. After helping their mother downsize, move, and age in place in a new home, Amy wondered what others do in these intense situations when there are no siblings or friends to help. This is the “origin story” of Lemon Aide Consulting (LAC). Amy has since helped dozens of clients prepare for all types of life transitions including: • The arrival of a newborn, pet, or long-term guest • An empty nest • A diagnosis or disability at any age • Aging • Retirement • Downsizing Amy has a BA in Fine Art, a MA in Psychology, and is certified in the Fundamentals of End-of-Life Issues. Although not a licensed counselor, Amy has extensive training and experience in mental health resources and uses solution-focused approaches to address life challenges and shame-free methods to help clients get organized. During her 25-year career at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. Amy worked in several pan-institutional departments, including archival offices, where she developed her knowledge in archiving, preserving, digitizing and repairing personal effects. As a hands-on artist she also enjoys creatively repurposing personal effects so sentimental items can come out of storage to be enjoyed on a daily basis. Amy maintains an abundance of contacts at the Smithsonian who can serve as subject matter experts to advise on nearly any client’s personal items or collections. Amy also uses her extensive writing and editing experience to help clients secure their legacies for future generations by writing and editing client biographies, personal reflections, and correspondence.
