535: The 2022 30 Day 1k Challenge:

Get Rid of 1000 Things in November 

Can you imagine how much lighter your home, and your heart, would be if you got rid of 1000 things next month? If you can envision that accomplishment and its accompanying peace, we will take care of teaching you how to get it! And guess who is back on Clutter Free helping lay out this challenge? Kathi is here with her partner in crime, Tonya Kubo, discussing one of their favorite challenges of the whole year. This challenge encourages and supports us in decluttering 1000 items in the month of November! Listen in to find out details and how this can work for you, no matter how many times you’ve tried to get clutter free before, or even if you feel like you’re always asking: 

  • Where do I begin? 
  • How do I get a loved one on board?
  • Am I too far gone?

THE CLUTTER FREE HOME

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.

533: Decluttering When You Don’t Know Where to Start

Part 2

Do you feel overwhelmed by your clutter, not knowing where to start? Kathi and Roger have both been there. Through experience and lots of decluttering, they have learned what works to launch them back into decluttering. In part one of this conversation, we learned the framework of the system they use to help tame the chaos and get their space back in order. Now, in part two, we take a deeper dive into the details of that system. Often, we can get hung up on making decisions about what to do next. Kathi and Roger are here to explain how this routine can help us make decisions and move on. Listen in to find out what it means to:

  • Find the trash 
  • Fill the containers 
  • Feed the machines

Overwhelmed:

How to Quiet the Chaos and Restore Your Sanity

 

“I Don’t Even Know Where to Start!”

Feeling overwhelmed?

Wondering if it’s possible to move from “out of my mind” to “in control” when you’ve got too many projects on your plate and too much mess in your relationships?

Kathi and Cheri want to show you five surprising reasons why you become stressed, why social media solutions don’t often work, and how you can finally create a plan that works for you. As you identify your underlying hurts, uncover hope, and embrace practical healing, you’ll understand how to…

• Trade the to-do list that controls you for a calendar that allows space in
your life

• Decide whose feedback to forget and whose input to invite

• Replace fear of the future with peace in the present

 

You can simplify and savor your life — guilt free! Clutter, tasks, and relationships may overwhelm you now, but God can help you overcome with grace.

529: How to Declutter Your Tech

Part 1

Are you unsure how to declutter and deal with different aspects of your tech? Does it get more complicated because you aren’t sure about the proper answer to questions like: what if there is personal information on there and what if I need it as a backup? Now you can safely lay those questions to rest because Kathi is here with Roger, her “chief tech get – a – ridder,” today. With such a fancy title, there is obviously much to learn from him! As an engineer with decades of tech experience, Roger has navigated many different tech scenarios, both in the corporate world and the work-from-home world. There is a lot of anxiety and fear of unknown things surrounding tech. How to declutter, repurpose, organize, and dispose of tech responsibly is challenging to most of us cluttery people. Listen in to find out how you can be proactive about tech starting with: 

 

  • Knowing who the tech person of the house is
  • Being able to find tech components when we need them
  • Agreeing on space 
  • Why everyone needs a “Tech Goo Box”
