  1. What My Mother Taught Me About Stuff, Time & Letting Go Janet M. Taylor 17:52

As Mother’s Day approaches, Janet shares a heartfelt reflection on what
her mother taught her about possessions, rituals, and release.

This episode explores:

• Why inherited items should be used — not hidden away
• The emotional connection between memories and objects
• How Family rituals shape our organizing habits
• The importance of weekly “letting go” practices
• When it’s time to release items that have served their purpose
• How to balance Legacy with living lightly

From jewelry and handbags to china, trunks, photos, and even worn-out
sneakers — Janet reminds us that organizing is not just about clearing space.

It’s about honoring memory.
It’s about creating new traditions.
It’s about living fully now.

If you are navigating Caregiving, Downsizing, Estate planning, or simply
feeling overwhelmed by sentimental clutter, this episode will help you shift your perspective with compassion and Clarity.
