What Now? On the threshold of life, death, and grief.
Keep or Give Away?
In this episode we address the task of what to do with the belongings and “stuff” we accumulate throughout a lifetime. Often as a person approaches death, or a person has died, family and close friends need to make decisions about how to disseminate a lifetime's worth of stuff. This can be an overwhelming undertaking during an already emotionally exhausting time. To support those engaged in this difficult task the co-hosts provide strategies and ways to think about our attachment to things, precious and otherwise, that gets left behind when someone dies.
