DCP 16: Differentiating The Fine Line Between Overstock Items and Clutter

In this episode, I am answering a Declutter Club Challenge Participant question of how to declutter using the challenge when your rooms look like a bomb went off.  This is a common question I receive, not just from challenge participants but also from those who I assist via Virtual and in-person organizing.  You are not alone and I hope this episode will give you some tips and tricks on how to get started on your organizing journey.  You can do this and I'm going to help you! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedeclutterclubpodcast/support

In this episode, I want to talk you about finishing the job you are on before you start a new job.  This is a common issue that I see when working with others during the decluttering process.  It's much like the squirrel effect that I talk about on the Organized Holistically Podcast.  I encourage you to listen to this episode to see if you are experiencing this issue in your environment.  Make sure to listen to the ways that you can make small adjustments to get a clear starting and stopping point so you can feel some forward momentum on your project.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedeclutterclubpodcast/support

Clutter is something we all have to contend with, but if you love to shop, are a couponer or even a bulk shopper, you and clutter have a different type of relationship.  This episode is definitely for you.  The line between something being overstock and clutter is very thin and you may find yourself in a weird place as you begin to declutter.  The truth is your overflow areas tell a story and it's important that you fully listen to what they are saying/or not saying to you.  I encourage you to truly listen to this episode to ensure you aren't falling into some of the same traps and also learn how to properly navigate having an overflow or overstock area in your home. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thedeclutterclubpodcast/support
