I love helping people create homes that they love. But over and over again, clients talk about the latest thing that they heard on social media or Pinterest or from Jenny down the block… and while many of those things simply are not true, it keeps them from decluttering and organizing their homes. So today we are debunking the top 5 myths that I hear about clutter and home organizing. Because these things should not hold you back from having a relaxing home that you can enjoy everyday.

Cleaning and decluttering routines can feel too complicated to stick to. Raise your hand if you have started multiple home routines or tried the one size fits all system, only to start skipping days and eventually give up because you didn’t have the time or energy to maintain the routine.

Especially if we are fighting with perfectionism. I hope this episode helps you simplify and feel better about testing different routines until you find the one that is right for you… the one that you will be able to maintain.
