In this insightful episode, Ingrid and Lesley tackle the complicated relationship between retirement and decluttering, revealing why having 'all the time in the world' doesn't necessarily make the process easier. They'll share practical strategies to break through the overwhelm and create a balanced approach that actually works.

The hosts dive deep into the reality behind retirement decluttering, exploring how increased free time can paradoxically lead to procrastination and analysis paralysis. They discuss the emotional weight of sorting through decades of accumulated belongings, sharing personal insights from Lesley's experience with her husband Steve's retirement journey. You'll discover why it's crucial to balance decluttering activities with enjoyable pursuits and how to create a sustainable rhythm that prevents burnout.
