Send me a text message about this podcast SummaryYou can see the potential in it. You know someone out there would love it, fix it up, give it a new life. So into the charity bag it goes — because that feels like the kindest thing to do. But what if that well-meaning donation is actually creating a problem for the very charities you want to support? In this episode, Heather talks about wishcycling — the habit of donating items in the hope that someone else will do the rescuing — and what to do instead when something isn't quite charity-ready.Chapters00:00Introduction to Wish Cycling02:52Understanding Wish Cycling and Its Impact05:33Options for Responsible Decluttering08:47Finding Better Exits for Unwanted ItemsResourcesOlio App Decluttering Untangled Facebook Community  Support the showIf you'd like to say 'Thank you', by buying me a virtual coffee (it'll actually buy me a cup of tea!), you can do so HERE.
