    242 // Helping Parents Declutter Now with Dignity - with Grace Rehman from Organize with Grace
    Jun 11 2026

    Are you caring for your own children as well as aging parents? If so, you are in what is called the “sandwich generation” - and it can be exhausting, especially if you are helping your parents downsize.

    Today I’m joined by Grace Rehman, a professional organizer who helps women 50 and over work through downsizing, decluttering, and life transitions. She is also the host of the Organize with Grace Podcast.

    In this conversation, Grace and I discuss:

    • the best time to approach our parents to talk about downsizing
    • the mistakes she sees people making when it comes to approaching their parents about downsizing or aging in place
    • how the “Antiques Roadshow Fallacy” causes aging parents to overvalue their stuff - and what to do about it
    • resources to help you get started
