Hey Collectors!
On this episode, we’re joined by Deborah Derrickson Kossmann, psychologist and author of the deeply moving memoir Lost Found Kept.
In this conversation, Deborah takes us into the heart of a childhood home filled with memories—and decades of her mother’s compulsive hoarding.
Through the emotional excavation of physical space, she uncovers much more: a layered portrait of grief, love, mental illness, and the power of objects to hold meaning.
Whether you’ve lived through something similar or are simply drawn to stories of healing and family complexity, this episode is for you.
