This week I chatted with Professional Organizer Megan Mangione and it really got me thinking about stuff and why we hold on to it. I researched a bit further into why we hold on to stuff, even when we feel cluttered, overwhelmed and disorganized. I'm definitely guilty of this and what I found through researching is exactly the reasons why I hold on to things.During this episode, I'm sharing what I found after diving into some research onto why we hold on to too much stuff and how I'm clearing out the physical and mental clutter in my life.
