Are you dreaming of a decluttered home this Christmas? Maybe you are wondering how to sustain your clutter-free journey in the midst of a busy life and hard circumstances. Give yourself the gift of deciding to be clutter free in 2023! That’s exactly what Deanna did last year. Then she set out to intentionally make 2022 her year to be clutter-free. Join Kathi and Deanna today as they share with us exactly how she did it and how we can too, including: 

  • Asking ourselves honest questions
  • Having a vision board 
  • Setting our why 

 

Join Clutter Free for Life Today!

What if you were able to create a life where you not only got rid of the clutter in each room of your house but were able to stay on top of it?

What if you learned to organize in a way that made sense to you so that once you decluttered, you could find the things that were important enough to keep?

What if you could live in a house that was at peace?

You’ve been thinking about how this will be the year to finally declutter your house and create the home you’ve always dreamed of. One that is filled with peace instead of stuff.

Is the idea of changing your home something you’d like to start working on? Because, right now, I have a plan that will show you how: Clutter Free For Life

542: How Using My Timer Keeps Me Decluttered and Organized

Are you using a lot of mental space to remember all the things? Sometimes even the things we easily remember most of the time can slip our present memory. Life is full of things to remember and routines and timers help us to manage them well. Kathi, and her decluttering and organizing partner Roger, have worked on building routines that work throughout their clutter-free journey. Routines can be challenging because they don’t always come naturally, and life sometimes breaks them. This is why breaking down projects into smaller, doable sessions and using a timer is so effective. Listen in to learn how:

 

  • Timers can be used in many different ways
  • Valuable the 15-minute sprint can be
  • To really do the things you love

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.
