I'm Shannon Leyco, and every Thursday on the Parring Down podcast, we come together in a quick 10 to 15-minute episode to remember that we're not alone, to root for each other, and hopefully to get a dose of humanity that allows us to show up in the world with more empathy, patience, and love.

I answer a question about decluttering, a question about my own life, share a listener decluttering win, a listener recommendation, and then give some final thoughts.

So grab your chai latte or beverage of choice, and let's get into this week's Chai Chat.
