515: What to Watch While Decluttering with Mary Carver Part 1
Kathi Lipp is here today with one of her new favorite people, author Mary Carver, to talk about what to watch while decluttering. Are you the kind of person who needs more than a playlist of worship music to declutter to? Maybe you enjoy a good television show to keep you company while you declutter, but you’re not sure how to strategically choose a show that will allow you to stay on task. In part one of this two-part series, Kathi and Mary share their criteria for shows that you should avoid watching while you declutter including:
- Shows you’re excited about
- Shows with complicated plotlines
- Subtitles
We’d love to know what shows you would add to their list. What shows do you avoid watching while you declutter?

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.
