Hello again;
I’m so happy to have finally recovered from that nasty cold I caught while speaking in New York City, so that I can get back to recording my show What’s Your Excuse?
And for my first guest back I’m blessed to have Tammy Moses with me.
She is an expert on hoarders and hoarding.
We had a wide ranging conversation once we got past a miner technical glitch. I lost my internet signal for a couple of minutes about 11 minutes into the show.
But Tammy stayed with me, and we were having such a good time; that the show runs a bit long. It’s 1 hour 20 minutes in all. 🙂
She shared her story of growing up with a hoarding parent and how she survived that experience before eventually escaping to a relative and later the military.
We talked about how she started and grew her business as someone who helps hoarders and the people around them. I was especially happy she had the courage to share that she still has a day job while growing the business.
She finished by giving some great advice to people who may be suffering as hoarders, their friends and family, and specifically for their children.
I hope you enjoy the show and get some great information out of it.
Me and Tammy both hope to inspire people to action. So, I hope that you will reach out to her if you know anyone who might be helped by her.

Sharing Is Caring
As Tammy has pointed out to me hoarding can and does effect people of all ages, backgrounds, and economic levels. So, there is a good chance you know someone who is effected by hoarding either directly or indirectly.
So, please share this video with your friends, family, coworkers, and social media communities.
In order to help people they first have to know there is help available, so please help me share my friend Tammy’s interview.
I want to thank you for taking the time to watch my videos. I know you have a lot of demands on your time, and you have lots of choices for how to use what little of it you do have.
But I also want to thank you for your prayers and positive thoughts while I was sick.
I look forward to your comments. Until next time thanks, God bless you, and take care out there, Max
