24. The Myth of the Perfect Time: Why You Should Start Downsizing Now


Listen Later

Are you waiting for the “perfect time” to start downsizing? The truth is, that day rarely comes—and waiting can cost you more than you realize.

In this episode, we unpack the myth of the perfect time and why so many people delay downsizing until it’s urgent. We share the hidden financial, emotional, and physical costs of waiting too long, along with simple, practical ways to start downsizing now, even if you don’t feel “ready.”

You’ll learn:

  • Why “someday” often becomes “too late”
  • How to replace “ready” with “willing”
  • The real-life costs of waiting, including stats on health, family, and financial impact
  • Small, low-pressure ways to start downsizing without overwhelm
  • Why your future self—and your family—will thank you for taking action now

Whether you’re thinking about simplifying your home, moving to a smaller place, or getting ahead of life transitions, this episode will empower you to take the first step today.
