    3: "Come and find Julia's beautiful items!"

    Whether you've done a 6-month-long Konmari overhaul or a hardcore 48-hour purge, chances are you've put together a number of "give away piles" in your life. What comes next? Julia cleans out her childhood bedroom and wonders how to give a proper goodbye to bags full of clothes, books, and jewelry.     Listen to Avery's miniseries, Articles of Interest, here and check out Marie Kondo's book or Netflix show if you haven't already. This is also Ula Kulpa's last episode as Co-Producer of Going Forward. Please join me in thanking her for all the beautiful work she's done for the show! Thank you, Ula!
