In the episode of "Don't Be Caught Dead," I had the pleasure of interviewing Arwen Dropmann, a skilled professional organiser with a background in social work.
Arwen is a certified social worker and has additional training in grief and loss, disability, chronic illness, hoarding disorder, motivational interviewing, neurodivergent affirming practices, and compassion-focused therapy.
We delved into the realm of decluttering, organising, and the emotional connections we have with our belongings, especially when coping with the death of a loved one.
In This Episode:
- Arwen shines a light on the challenges families face when dealing with a loved one's belongings after death.
- We explore the emotional aspects of decluttering and organising, especially in sensitive situations like handling a deceased person's possessions.
- Arwen provides practical advice on future preparation, emphasising the importance of organising essential documents and planning for unforeseen events.
This episode should enlighten anyone who has grappled with clutter or faced the daunting task of sorting through a loved one's belongings. Arwen's insights highlight the importance of preparing for the inevitable and the emotional journey that accompanies it.
