Inspired by listener email, we talk about what to do with all the “stuff” we acquire through our lives. The stuff we cherish, the stuff that anchors us and the stuff that holds the memories of those we love.

We don’t have all the answers, we want to hear from you! Send us your thoughts at https://cronecast.ca/contact.
