We’ve all probably seen and heard lots of advice about decluttering, organizing, recycling, and more. There’s a lot of it out there! But how do you recognize the good advice and avoid the bad advice? Well… it all depends on what you want for YOU! And how do you find balance in your life so […]

This combined May/June blog post was going to be about spring cleaning, but I recently heard a podcast on NPR’s Hidden Brain about why we hold on to things, and it was fascinating so I decided to write a little about that and include the link so that you could enjoy it too. If you […]

This might sound like a strange question, but it’s one that I think about a lot. I meet so many people who say that they need my help, and many people hire me and accept the help, and they are usually anxious to get started. They work with me to purge the items in their […]
