Why do we keep so much stuff - uncluttering in retirement!
About this episode
Maureen Dobranski discusses the challenges of uncluttering personal belongings during retirement and shares her own experiences with items stored away for years.
Why do we keep so much stuff? This year I finally opened the storage room under our stairs — a space that hadn't been touched in years — and found everything from a box of my husband's forgotten beer can collection to baby shoes I could never part with. Here's what I found, what I kept, what I let go of, and the honest truth about why I'm still not finished. What's hiding in your storage room, closet, or garage? Tell me in the comments — I'd love to know I'm not alone. Join our community of 35,000+ retirees in the Life Starts at Retirement Facebook group: / lifestartsatretirement
