Let’s rethink the way we ”save our stuff.” Lindsey Smith, Exhibitsmith, helps people interpret, preserve, and better understand the objects that make up our world. If you have a lot of stuff, this might feel overwhelming. But believe it or not, Lindsey truly believes that artifact and heirloom preservation can be both easy and fun. She invites you to sit back, relax, and listen to her professional thoughts, personal musings, and the ridiculous stories that she’s encountered while on – and off – the job. Hopefully it’ll all help you feel a little better about how to deal with your own stuff.
Censorship's Silver Linings & The President's House
Let's be real here - I'm not an eternal optimist. I'm actually far from it. However, every so often I read something about a censorship campaign that is just so ridiculous that I can't help but roll my eyes, sigh, and be thankful that I've been made aware of it.
In January 2026, the Trump / Vance Administration ordered exhibit panels about enslaved persons to be removed from The President's House, an outdoor historic site located next to the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia. Because this Administration wishes to erase any evidence of white people being less than perfect, they are going to ridiculous lengths to rewrite history.
Thankfully, they approached the situation the same way I'd imagine that the Three Stooges would, and their attempt to whitewash history is backfiring beautifully. Let's keep up the momentum and find the silver lining amid these ridiculous censorship attempts. Please listen to my musings and then let's discuss!NPS Site - The President's House: https://www.nps.gov/inde/learn/historyculture/places-presidentshousesite.htmRead about the City of Philadelphia’s decision to sue the Department of the Interior here.

In this brand new episode, I share a photo digitization "life hack" that might just change everything.

Listen to this short episode about how I quickly and easily did just that - and how I was able to share those photos with family near and far. It's all about understanding your priorities, setting reachable goals, and finding your light.My monthly conversations will return in the new year. Until then, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year.

ReRelease: Memories, Heirlooms, & a Face Only a Granddaughter Could Love
This month I'm rereleasing one of my favorite family heirloom stories. I hope you enjoy it! Sometimes the objects that are important to you aren't the prettiest. Sometimes they're best left in a box, but that doesn't mean they're unimportant or forgotten. In this episode, hear the heartwarming story about an unfortunate-looking bank and its sweet history, and learn three important questions to ask yourself about the past, present, and future of your possessions, as you decide what to keep and why.This episode originally aired in 2024.
