Hi. Hi. Hi. How are you there? Hi. Hey, Nora.

I'm Nora McInerney, and this is thanks for asking, a call-in show about what matters to you.

Hi, everybody. It's Nora McInerney. This is, thanks for asking, a show about what

matters to you. And what matters to you today is hoarding, specifically hoarding parents. So a couple weeks ago, I posted a question box on my

Instagram and someone sent in this question. My parents are serious, awful hoarders. How do I not

pre-resent them for leaving a mess? Now, I have to admit that I've never really thought that much about hoarding

because I do not have hoarder parents. I have the opposite of hoarder parents. My mom,

willingly, readily, excitedly, got rid of pretty much everything. So the only advice that I

had was to just save up your money for a junk removal company and spare

yourself the resentment because that's all that I could think of in the moment. But I wanted to hear

more from children of hoarders. So I went out there. I asked you to tell me more.

And boy, did you?

You always come through.

Also, a note, I think it's worth mentioning if you are watching this right now.

A lot of you are listening to the podcast, but we do have quite a robust YouTube channel.

The episodes don't come out on YouTube right away.

But, you know, pop on over there if you would like to see these episodes. But if you are watching on YouTube, you're probably

thinking, what's wrong with this woman's face? What's wrong with my face is that I got

microneedling done. I used a group on. And I've been, I've been criticized for that by people who shall rename,

remain nameless, remain nameless, Carolyn Moss, Kate Kennedy.

I feel good about it.

This is, I've been told it's a part of the process.
