How to De-clutter - Tips That Actually Work

She’s outraged!
I thought as I listened back to myself to edit this episode about
de-cluttering 😂

I realised how angry I sounded, and I did consider re-recording it, but then realised that I am actually angry about clutter. 🙈
I’m angry and annoyed about the stress and overwhelm it causes for my brain, and I really don’t like how clutter robs a space of calm.

This episode is hugely based on an episode of the The Mel Robbins Podcast I listened to a while ago, and I thought the tips were really simple, and quite different to the usual advice you hear out there about sparking joy and rainbow organising, both of which I have never been entirely convinced of, I mean the dedication and time it must take to keep everything that way for any longer than a few days!

In the episode, Mel Robbins interviews Dana K White, the founder of A Slob Comes Clean, about de-cluttering and organising, and Dana offers some really useful advice and practical tips on what to do if you’re struggling with clutter. In this episode I cover those tips, and add in a sprinkling of my own advice as well.

I believe that embarking on a big home renovation, should definitely start with a big de-clutter.
So here is it, the original (and a little angry) version of this weeks’ episode of How To Renovate - along with some other ramblings about where I keep my socks and nail varnishes.

I do calm down a bit toward the middle of the episode.
Promise.
