116. How To Begin When You Have A Clutter Problem


Listen Later

Opening Bible verse: Nehemiah 1:9

This episode is part 2 of 3.  Please listen to episode 114 if you missed the topic of how to determine if you have a clutter problem or a routine problem.  You can listen to that episode here: Episode 114

So you've determined that you have a clutter problem.  Now what?  When I work with a homeowner that is completely overwhelmed by every room of her house, I always recommend that we begin in her wardrobe, then move onto her bedroom and her bathroom.  I do this because I want her to have an oasis in her home.  A place to retreat and recharge.  A place where she wakes up to calm and easily makes a decision about what to wear because everything in her wardrobe fits her, flatters her and makes her feel fabulous. That's in an ideal world where I will be working with a client long term.  

 

In today's episode, I let you begin where you like.  Let's say you only have one weekend to declutter and you want to focus on one area of your home.  This episode will walk you through how to get that area decluttered and organized!  Yes, I'm finally giving you the green light to use or purchase the bins, baskets and label maker!  Once one room or area of your home is completely free of clutter and you've organized the remaining items that will stay, you can move onto the next area or room of your home.

 

Happy decluttering! XOXO, Gina

 

***What’s your first thought when the doorbell rings?  Do you excitedly swing open the door to greet the person on the other side or do you turn off the lights, remain silent and pray they just go away? Is clutter stopping you from opening the door? Even more, is clutter and the fear of having anyone visit, making you feel lonely and isolated?

 

On May 14th from 7-9pm EST, I’ll be hosting a 2 hour retreat called, “The Visitation Declutter Retreat”.  We’ll begin our time together in prayer as we meditate on the visitation of our Blessed Mother when she visits her cousin, Elizabeth.  We’ll get to know one another, discuss how this Bible passage resonates with us in regard to our clutter.  We’ll join together as like-minded women to break through the challenges of clutter in our lives.  Finally, we’ll get to work on decluttering the area of our home that a guest would see immediately.  You’ll be able to ask me questions and get encouragement from me and the group as we all work to clear space to make room for welcoming guests as Elizabeth did.  The knowledge you’ll gain in this 2 hour retreat will give you the tools to tackle every other area of your home.

 

The cost is $40 and you can use the link below to sign up.  An email with the zoom link will be sent prior to the retreat.  Please be sure to check your spam folder if you don’t see an email from me by the 13th.  Hope to see you there!
