My transformative small group program changes your home from one that depresses you to one you want to show off to your friends. I take you step-by-step through decluttering whatever space you choose during our 4-week session. During your membership, I give you personalized advice and feedback in and out of class so you finally get a house you’re proud of and want to come home to. How? I answer that HERE! https://lnkd.in/grehTCHi #Declutter #ProfessionalOrganizer #OrganizedHome #EmptyNest

Life is about constant self-discovery, improvement, and change. And that's a good thing! Here's my decluttering journey over the decades and how it developed into my decluttering method, STACK. I would love to hear about YOUR journey (the good, the bad, and the ugly), https://lnkd.in/eVMNrntz #Declutter #OrganizedHome #OrganizedLife #ClutterFree

Awesome--you're ready to start decluttering. But, what do you do with the things you declutter that are too good to throw away? Donate them? Sell them? Here are some things to think through as you make that decision. https://lnkd.in/eY-r3awy #Declutter #EmptyNest #Downsizing #ProfessionalOrganizer

Downsizing is for a season but your relationship with your parents is forever. When you're helping your folks declutter, be careful not to sacrifice their feelings for efficiency.  Your parents will feel better and so will you. https://lnkd.in/ereP6SqG

Scrapbooks are meant to be enjoyed; not to heap guilt on you! 📚 If the best thing for Today You is to donate or discard scrapbooking materials, go ahead and do it! Life is too short to let stuff make you feel guilty. But, let's be real. It's VERY hard to let go of emotional things. That can include your china and crystal, clothes from a special time in your life, family heirlooms . . . and scrapbook plans. As a professional organizer, I help people purposefully think through what they're keeping, how to let go of things that are holding them back, and to feel joy in the decluttering process. Don't wait to discover Today You and make your house the HOME you really want. #Declutter #EmptyNest #ProfessionalOrganizer #ClutterFreeHome https://lnkd.in/em_BmKt8

Letting go of family heirlooms is not about erasing the past but about enjoying the present and establishing a future that best suits you. But, sometimes it feels wrong to let go of things passed on from family members. I often hear one or more of the following from "guilty" recipients: “It feels disrespectful to discard family items.” Your loved ones are in your heart and memories . . . not in physical things. You can still respect their memory even though you don’t own their things. “Mom is expecting me to keep all Grandma’s things—it almost feels like I promised her I would.” Circumstances change. It’s okay to reassess promises. You’re now in a better position to know what does and doesn’t fit in your home and decide accordingly. “I just know someone in the family will be mad at me if I let go of any family stuff.” Family is about relationships—not stuff. Communicate with loved ones about your need to declutter. Make the things you can’t keep available to them. If they don’t want or can’t take those items, let them know that’s okay, but you can’t either and are going to have to find a better place to pass them on to. The answer isn’t just sucking it up and keeping everything. But it doesn’t have to be dropping everything off at the nearest thrift store either. Instead, step back and identify the things you truly want to keep. Ask yourself if you have room for them. If you do but space is tight, consider letting go of something you already have to make room for the “new” heirloom. #EmptyNest #TooMuchStuff #Declutter #ClutterFree https://lnkd.in/eQKSyzzR

Finding time to declutter doesn't have to mean sacrificing hours of your day. When you take advantage of small pockets of time throughout your daily routine, you'll make steady progress toward a clutter-free home. https://lnkd.in/eqsXZeUH #Declutter #Decluttering #DeclutterYourLife #ProfessionalOrganizer
