TITLE OF EPISODE: He’s a RAY of SUNSHINE!


SUMMARY OF EPISODE:


From being away from my home, in a city I don’t live in, with few connections and no car… what was I to do when my new DEATH CLEANING client, who is a 93 year old dynamo, and who has more energy and stamina than I’ve ever had… says on day one that he wants to work quickly and get as much done as possible in our time together?!


Piles were stacking up fast and I had no place to put all the things and my car wasn’t arriving till Saturday.


And when it would arrive, not 1/10th of the stuff would fit.


So, what’s a girl to do?


PIVOT! Take action. Don’t spend too much time thinking, just do.


Something! Anything!


By releasing the pressure valve where necessary (no podcast episode last week) and ASKING FOR HELP of others.


And letting go of the yucky GOTTA DO IT ALL MYSELF.


Because really… I couldn’t do it alone!!


And, thank God, I didn’t need to.


Help is all around us. All we have to do is open our eyes and hearts.
