This podcast is all about looking back at the things we keep ‘for the memories’.Hoarding is a very difficult condition to explain because there isn't that much research conducted on it. It's a compulsion/impulsion and the psychology behind it isn't fully understood. Hoarding can increase after a death or a traumatic incident, and it can even be inherited from parents, so when you see your parents hoard you naturally start to do the same... In each episode, I talk to my guest about three significant memories by looking back at the memorable items they’ve kept. The first item is from a childhood memory, the second is an item from a tough time, and lastly, is a memory they'll cherish forever, after each discussion, they'll decide which items they will keep, or shred into pieces.
