In this special listener-powered Q&A episode, we cover:
Decluttering with kids — What to do when your child says everything is their favorite
Just-in-case clutter — How to finally let go of items you might use someday
Overwhelm & motivation — What to do when you’re drained and can’t find the energy to declutter
Inbox overload after a summit — My pro tip for keeping digital clutter at bay (hello, phantom email addresses!)
Family heirlooms — Navigating the emotions and logistics of sentimental pieces
When donation isn’t easy — Why it’s okay to throw something away sometimes
Too many containers? — Yes, you can declutter your organizing bins too!
✨ Plus: my challenge to you this month, a behind-the-scenes look at my own decluttering routines, and how small actions really do lead to big progress.
