Edited to show AFTER photo - oops!

July ended with a bang! One of my clients took big decluttering steps toward a more happy home. This storage, like so many of ours, had turned into a catch-all of her family's past and present.

We had a heart to heart about "doing enough," the parts we give up to be moms, and what her values are today.

Many of these items represented a past self and past dreams -- making them weigh heavily with emotion. They have sat in storage for years with lots of potential, but they simply don't align with who she is now and that is okay. 🙂

She had the courage to let go so that she could make room for the future and what really matters to her and her family in this season.
I'm so proud of her!!

I have to agree! The author, Katy Joy Wells, boils down clutter into several layers and talks about the hurdles that we face when we try (and maybe fail at) decluttering our homes.

Clutter has all kinds of emotions tied to them and that makes de-cluttering a tough practice in letting go of not only your physical things but also of who you were, who you wanted to be, how you feel, how other people make you feel, and more.

If you struggle to declutter, recognizing the feelings simmering behind the "thing" is the best next step you can take to freeing yourself.

Don't let clutter run your emotions.
Don't let clutter steal your peace.
You can love the home you're in.

Yesterday's session went fast. My client and I sorted and bagged piles of clothes to be sold, donated, or gifted to friends.

The first hour I worked solo, sorting these items into like sizes. One full hour. That's 60 minutes **uninterrupted** by the needs of others to complete this task.

>> I didn't have to get snacks for anyone.
>> I didn't have to break up a sibling argument.
>> I didn't have to chase a baby anywhere.

Hiring a home organizer is almost never about capability--my clients are the most capable, smart, and hardworking women I know.

Hiring a home organizer is about time and energy, and spending those in a way that she values.

Hiring a home organizer is about creating bandwidth for herself and her family.

During that solo hour, my client was able to get her kids ready for the day and get everyone where they needed to be.

Hiring a home organizer is about peace in her home so that she can do more of what matters most.

This client is crushin' it! 🌞

Check out this Middle & After
(because my client had made great progress before I supported her)

MIDDLE >>> bins that were mismatched and too bulky for the shelving, items that didn't belong anymore, items that were stacked haphazardly, categories that weren't clearly defined

AFTER >>> matching clear bins perfect for the space, decluttered items, defined categories and zones, easy access to everything...even a few empty totes to grow .

This storage space is now Tote-ally 🤭.

Prepping for a trip?! Here's something I do...

I pile up "trip stuff" a week or more before we leave. I'm not checking off a list; I choose a spot and a container to drop items in ***as I come across them***.

Because my brain is solving for 10 different problems at any given time.

How does this look?

When I'm moving about my regular day, I will be:
🩱Putting something away. I see, oh, we already have swim diapers that would fit our youngest. (drop it in the bin)
⛱️ Decluttering my closet. I see, hey, I have a beach bag! (drop it in the bin)
🎲 Playing a game with my toddler, and I think, this would be perfect for travel (drop it in the bin)
👟 Picking up water shoes scattered across the floor, and I know that we won't need these before our trip (drop them in the bin)
..I don't know about you, but I'm not great at remembering every detail the night before, so I just go with my tendency and gather things as my mind squirrels from one thought to the next. I don't worry about organizing and packing everything until a day or two before we leave.

Tell me about your travel hacks! What keeps you from stressing and having what you need before you go??

Another full load of donations after a decluttering session.

This time we worked through decorations for my client's primary residence. We talked a lot about what makes her happy each holiday, what she's excited to set out and enjoy, and what works well for her family. When we got clear on those truths, we knew what needed to go and what needed to stay.

I can't wait to share the shelves when we are finished with this storage space!

Yesterday my client and I cut her party decorations in half!

Stored away items are so quickly forgotten, but why let these things sit in storage for years without being loved or used?

Unused items in good condition can serve a new purpose by being donated (she filled a large tote to give away!). Items that are not worthy of donating can teach us lessons about our likes and dislikes, our buying habits, and more if we listen -- and my client has been listening so well, making all kinds of changes to create peace in her everyday spaces.

After spending the morning decluttering, packing each category (Easter, Hocus Pocus fun, Christmas...) into its own container was effortless. Let the next party planning begin! 🥳
