Downsizing is rarely about the stuff.
For many women, it’s about deciding what still fits, what no longer serves them, and how to create space for the life they want next. Professional organizer and author Donna Barwald joins Agnes to talk about decluttering, moving, Family treasures, storage units, memories, and why your home should reflect who you are today—not who you used to be.
In This Episode:
- Why downsizing is really about Lifestyle, not possessions
- The emotional side of letting go
- What to do when your children don’t want your treasures
- How clutter affects Stress, focus, and decision-making
- Simple ways to start decluttering today
- Creating a home that supports your next chapter
Sometimes creating space isn’t about having less—it’s about making room for more of what matters now.

I’ve probably done most of the things you expect a woman my age to have done: married and divorced; three children; variety of jobs over the years including a couple of home-based businesses and, finally, a pretty good career; gave up that career (and home and life) to move and take care of a dementing mother; adult daughter moved back home with a baby; financial struggles; sucker-punched by the post-2007 economy. You tell a similar story.
