        &lt;p&gt;I'll admit it - I'm a bit of a digital hoarder. My internet browser is like a virtual junk drawer, with tabs upon tabs open at any given time. Why do I insist on keeping so many tabs open, even when they're just cluttering up my computer and slowing everything down? It's not just the browser either - I used to have bookshelves overflowing with tomes from my university days, and a closet full of memorabilia from my travels. Maybe it all comes down to this deep-seated fear of losing information, ideas, and memories. As the years go by, it's like I'm trying to hold onto every little thing, terrified that if I let go, I'll forget or miss out on something important. But is that really the healthiest approach? In this episode of my podcast 'The Walk', I dive into the bittersweet process of aging - the physical changes, the nostalgia, and the challenge of learning to let go. It's not all doom and gloom, though. I also explore the benefits of embracing each stage of life, and how a little gratitude can go a long way in reframing the experience of getting older. So if you, like me, find yourself drowning in a sea of open tabs and half-forgotten keepsakes, give this episode a listen. You might just find some wisdom and humor to help you navigate the journey of growing older (and wiser). After all, as they say, with age comes...well, a lot of stuff. But also the opportunity to reflect, appreciate, and move forward in a meaningful way.&lt;/p&gt;
