Episode 233: What to Do If You Don't Want Gifts This Christmas, Will I Write Fiction?, & Missing Friends
Here's what you'll find in this week's mini episode, a.k.a. Chai Chat! I answer: 1. I was hoping you could share some insight on how to respond when people ask what you would like as a birthday or Christmas gift when you are trying to declutter. I know you have touched on this topic for kids but I’m wondering if you have advice for adults. 2. Will you ever write fiction? Listener recommendation: Married at First Sight Australia
