I'm 79... I Started Decluttering Everything So My Kids Won't Have to Do It After I'm Gone

Описание: When my mother died, it took my brothers and me three full weeks to empty her house. It wasn't a time of fond remembrance; it was grueling physical labor, making thousands of exhausting decisions under the weight of grief we didn't have time to feel. Standing in her crowded living room, I made a quiet promise: I would not do this to my own children.

In this video, I share the hard truth I learned about legacy and the "museum of affection" we build in our homes. If you are holding onto sentimental items, family heirlooms, or just a house full of things out of guilt or obligation, this story is for you. I'll walk you through the practical habits—like The Permanent Exit Box, The One-In One-Out Rule, and The Gratitude Goodbye—that helped me clear a path back to what truly matters.

Your home shouldn't be a storage unit for your past. It should be a living space for your present. Learn how to leave your family your love, not your stuff.
