Paring Down: Realistic minimalism, decluttering, & intentional living12 Des 2023

9: Donating Clutter Generously

Sometimes I find myself of falling into this trap: I want to be generous...I THINK I'm pretty generous...I definitely care about generosity. But then my days get filled with soccer practices and career work and hobbies and time with family and school events, and suddenly I realize that while nothing I'm doing is bad-- in fact a lot of it is great (family time!)-- my heart to care for others has become a nice thought instead of an actual part of my life. We're smack in the middle of the miniseries on the podcast called Paring Down the Holidays. I hope today's episode is anything but pressure-filled, rather instead, it can offer practical and motivating ways we can combine our decluttering journey with the value of giving back.
