624 - Decluttering Family Heirlooms: Navigating Emotional Attachments


Listen Later

Hey there, friend! Do you ever feel like your home has become a storage unit for everyone else's stuff?

In this episode of Clutter Free Academy, hosts Kathi Lipp and Tonya Kubo address a common struggle for many listeners: what to do when family members, both parents and adult children, want to leave their belongings at your house. They discuss the challenges of being part of the sandwich generation, caught between aging parents trying to pass down heirlooms and adult children who may not have the space or desire for these items. Join Kathi and Tonya as they tackle the tough questions and offer practical advice for decluttering with compassion and clarity.

Listeners will discover:

  • The changing attitudes toward possessions among younger generations
  • How to navigate the disconnect between parents' expectations and their children's needs.
  • The importance of finding solutions that work for everyone

Whether you're a parent looking to pass down treasured items or an adult child grappling with the influx of stuff, you'll come away with a fresh perspective and actionable steps for creating a more peaceful, clutter-free home.
