About this listen
Alison is joined by Kat and Judy for an honest and eye-opening conversation about hoarding disorder.
Kat is Director for Hoarding Disorders UK (East) Community Interest Company (CIC) and founder of The Hummingbird Effect, a social purpose business that specialises in professional decluttering and organisational strategies.
Judy is an expert by experience, and shares her own story and how she now uses her lived experience to support others through a peer group in Stamford.
Kat talks about the powerful ripple effect of Judy’s openness - how it’s encouraged others to share their own stories, build trust, and form strong connections within the group.
Together, they explore the stigma and shame often linked to hoarding, highlighting the importance of understanding what lies beneath these behaviours. They also discuss the value of kindness, non-judgement, and a few practical tools that can help.
This podcast is not a short listen, but it’s a deeply human one, offering real insight into hoarding and the courage it takes to talk about it.
