502: Back to Basics
How to Declutter Your House Fast
Kathi Lipp and Roger Lipp are back to continue their Back to Basics series. Are you new to the Clutter Free Academy and wondering what this program is all about? This week, Kathi revisits her clutter free system and explains how she manages to get the clutter out of her house by focusing on one room per day for 15 minutes at a time. To get started, you’ll need three bags designated for things to give away, put away, and move to other rooms. Once you have your bags ready, listen in for the Kathi and Roger’s tips for decluttering success including:
- Avoid BSO (Bright Shiny Object) Syndrome by not moving your feet
- Listen to a podcast (Kathi likes Fair Game with Leah Remini)
- Tell someone what you’re doing for accountability
If you’re ready to get rid your clutter, but not sure where to start, you won’t want to miss a single episode of this Back to Basics series.
The Clutter Free Home: Making Room for Your Life
When it comes to your home, peace is possible…
Longing for a place of peace from which you can love others well? The Clutter-Free Home is your room-by-room guide to decluttering, reclaiming, and celebrating every space of your home.
Let author Kathi Lipp (who once lived a life buried in clutter) walk you through each room of your house to create organizational zones that are not only functional and practical but create places of peace that reflect your personality. Kathi will help you tackle the four-step process of dedicate, decide, declutter and “do-your-thing” to reveal the home you’ve always dreamed of, and then transform it into a haven that reflects who you truly are meant to be.
