237 Overcoming Compulsive Hoarding with That Hoarder
In this podcast we are so privileged to have a guest who is willing to share her story of living with a very full home. She says ”I have been a compulsive hoarder for as long as I can care to remember. As a child I was messy and just didn't understand how to tidy up. As an adult I lost the ability altogether.” We find out how living with hoarding behaviours has unfolded for her.I'm a middle-aged woman in the UK who has been a compulsive hoarder for longer than I care to remember. As a child, I was messy and just didn't understand how to tidy up. As an adult, I lost the ability altogether.
I do not want to live like this but dehoarding my home is proving to be very difficult. Even if I get over the
daft attachments to a ripped envelope or a top that hasn't fitted me for four years, the practicalities of getting anything done are so tricky.
So I started a website and podcast to share my progress. I especially hope that the site and podcast will appeal to other hoarders so that we can offer mutual support and share our experiences and tips.

231 The stories behind hoarding disorder with Jasmine Sleigh
We all have our own ideas and preconceptions about hoarding tendencies and hoarding disorder. But what about the person that lives in a home like that? Today I am talking to Professional Organiser and author, Jasmine Sleigh, who has written a book all about the stores behind the hoarding.Professional Organiser since 2013, with an expertise in hoarding and chronic disorganisation. She holds a degree in Psychology and Counselling, and has supported a thousand householders to change their space (the name of her business). Her team are often commissioned as a specialist decluttering service to reduce risks in homes by social services, housing teams and health agencies. The careful coaching of change in homes led Jasmine to write her book: Being Owned: A Decade in Professional Decluttering. It presents the breakthroughs and heartache of working with those for whom keeping or letting go will have huge ramifications.

228 How to form habits with Ros Fielden
Often when we talk about forming new habits it’s January when we are all fired up and raring to go in the New Year. But February often brings with it a slump - new habits start to wane so what better time to revisit this than now? In today’s podcast we talk to Ros Fielden, a health coach about her health journey and how to build sustainable habits.I retrained as a Health Coach in 2018 following my own Health Journey. I was diagnosed with Inflammatory Arthritis in February 2016 and discovered that by changing my lifestyle I was able to influence how my body functions. I initially saw a Rheumatologist who put me on strong medications to control the inflammation with very unpleasant side effects, but I subsequently learnt that how I treat my body also influences how my body works and that I could tackle reducing inflammation by looking at my lifestyle choices. I changed my diet and my lifestyle with incredible results, I feel very grateful to have been able to come off all the medications. I subsequently became a Health Coach as it felt super important for me to share the message that we do have the opportunity to improve our own health and have a sense of agency over our own bodies. We can declutter those unhealthy habits that are not serving us well so that we can be as healthy as possible and live life to the full!
