Megs talks with her former client and friend, Carolyn Bedingfield, about decluttering later in life, moving through grief, and building self-trust one choice at a time. Carolyn shares how she emptied a decades-old storage unit, honored her late husband without keeping everything, and transformed a small apartment into a bright sanctuary filled with plants, art, and intentional memories like glowing uranium glass. They unpack common barriers such as all-or-nothing thinking, sentimental guilt, and notebook overwhelm, then offer gentle ADHD-friendly steps that actually stick. Expect practical ideas like labeling what matters, scanning photos, giving every item a clear home, and asking for help so you can make peace with the past and create a future that truly fits.
