Have you heard these myths about empty nest decluttering and transitioning to a new phase of life?

Myth #1: You have to get rid of everything sentimental.

Myth #2: You should declutter your entire home all at once.

Myth #3: Transitioning to an empty nest means feeling lonely and lost.

In this episode, our guest Jennifer Strohecker will debunk these myths and share the truth about decluttering and embracing a new phase of life as she has been through this life transition recently on her decluttering journey.

My special guest today is Jennifer Strohecker:
