If you are thinking about downsizing – or just want to declutter a bit – I have some tips to help you along the way.

So, this morning, I’d love to ask you about your first work experience. I’d love to know how you got your start in life and what your first job taught you, both in terms of skills and new perspectives on life. Come join us for a cup of tea (or coffee) and a chat.
