Her method focuses on only keeping items that spark joy and speak to your heart.

Are you okay and recording?
Yeah.
Okay, I'm going to go.
Off I go.
There was a really bizarre moment which is concreted in my mind and I remember thinking very specific thought that this is how I die.
And that's a shame.
That's Niall McCann.
What you've just heard is him crashing into a mountain of 50 miles an hour.
The story you're about to listen to is not an easy one to hear.
Niall talks about his devastating accident, which remarkably, he survives.
He speaks too, in some detail about his surgery and and recovery.
We hear how he learns to cope with and sometimes even laugh about the very serious injuries that have changed his life.
I'm going to embrace the fact that I have bladder incontinence and bowel incontinence and sexual dysfunction because I can.
And I really hope that other people feel that that gives them the permission to embrace it too.
