We've all seen at least one episode of the infamous hoarder show and likely had our own opinions about what may drive someone to hoard. But hoarding is a complex issue beyond what we see on TV.

Join me and my guest, Laurel Sagan of Laurel Buys Houses as we discuss the impact hoarding has on individuals and families, and most importantly, how we can offer support and understanding to those who hoard.

Whether you seek insight for yourself or a loved one, this episode aims to shed some light on this often misunderstood topic, offering hope and guidance, particularly regarding the homes of those who hoard.
