In this week's episode of The TrulyLife Podcast Lauren looks into the often-overlooked steps of preparing for a new school year: decluttering.
As summer winds down and new routines take shape, the sheer amount of stuff—clothes, toys, school supplies, and random odds and ends—can make the transition feel chaotic.
This conversation focuses on why it’s worth tackling the clutter now, before the rush of schedules, homework, and activities sets in.
By letting go of items your kids have outgrown or no longer use, like worn-out shoes, duplicate toys, or half-finished craft kits, you create more space (both physical and mental) for the year ahead.
The process doesn’t have to be overwhelming—think of it as a reset that makes mornings smoother, routines simpler, and the school year less stressful.
