Downsizing - How and when to get started for yourself and your ageing relatives.

Navigating midlife often means taking on new responsibilities, and for many of us, that includes helping aging parents make difficult transitions, like downsizing from a long-time home. But the truth is, downsizing isn't just for our parents—it's something we all need to consider. In this episode, we’re joined by Darla Pompilio, a professional organizer and founder of Your Tasks Our Time, who’s been guiding families through the complexities of downsizing for over 16 years. She’ll share practical advice on how to get started, key steps to avoid overwhelm, and common pitfalls to watch out for—whether you're helping a loved one or preparing for a future move yourself.
