In this conversation, Dana K White shares her journey from being a messy person to becoming a decluttering expert, emphasizing the connection between home management and spirituality in her new book: *Jesus Doesn't Care About Your Messy House: He Cares About Your Heart She discusses the importance of grace, understanding one's unique mindset, and practical steps for decluttering. The conversation highlights the emotional aspects of clutter, the significance of community support, and the need for authenticity in struggles. Dana encourages listeners to embrace their imperfections and focus on their hearts rather than their homes (to some extent!). Dana K White's journey began with a messy home and a desire to write. Understanding grace is crucial in managing home and heart. Decluttering is not just about physical space but emotional clarity. The container concept helps limit clutter by defining boundaries. Sentimental items can be kept if they fit within the space. Starting with visible spaces can inspire further decluttering efforts. Daily habits, like doing dishes, can prevent overwhelming clutter. Community support is vital in the decluttering process. Authenticity in struggles can inspire others facing similar challenges. It's important to focus on God's grace rather than perfection.Time stamps:00:00 Introduction to Messiness and Spirituality07:30 The Journey of Decluttering and Grace10:25 Understanding Our Unique Struggles13:30 The Impact of Comparison and Guilt16:23 Mindset Shifts in Decluttering19:22 The Container Concept Explained22:08 Sentimental Items and Their Value31:30 Choosing Regret Over Clutter32:54 Decluttering the Mind and Heart34:22 Starting with Physical Decluttering37:36 The Power of Quick Wins39:53 Daily Routines and Dishes44:36 Understanding God's Perspective on Home47:47 Authenticity in Hospitality52:31 Struggles and Real Life55:06 Dana K.

Hey friends! So you want to declutter your home. And one of the top categories of items hogging up space in your home are sentimental items. Items like...your kids baby clothes, family heirlooms, a collection of music tapes from your adolescence, clothes from 10 years ago...(Insert the item here). Perhaps you are decluttering a loved ones home and coming across handfuls of similar types of items. You've tried to declutter these items before. But emotions gave way and you found a reason to hold on to them "just a little bit longer". Clearly all these items are deeply tied to a person or a memory you aren't willing to part with. Running in parallel I am here to honor the memory and provide perspective to help you let the stuff go. I pray that when you leave todays episode you feel more confident to take the steps, to finally bless and release items that are in the past or that no longer serve you in this season of life.

Hi Amanda, First off, Elaine commends Amanda on her initial color choice of alabaster, describing it as a beautiful off-white that ranked among the top Sherwin Williams colors. She suggests that you need to focus on allowing the natural landscape to guide her color palette since the lake house likely offers a view worth highlighting. Elaine also emphasizes the importance of choosing colors that complement the scenery to ensure the view remains the focal point. For the screen porch, she recommends considering a daring, dark green to provide a dynamic contrast and allow the room to blend with the natural surroundings. Elaine also shares key color rules, advising that Amanda match her home's interior and exterior styles to maintain cohesion, and suggests incorporating beige tones as an alternative to gray, which can look dated. Elaine points out the importance of considering natural light and how it interacts with chosen colors, encouraging Amanda to seek a palette that lasts and complements both the home's interior and its natural setting.

If the kitchen is the heart of the home, the living room is the heart beat... I've found over the years that the state of a living room is a goodindicator of how a home is tracking along. A living space is where high rotation items tend to live, where people congregate, where community happens and resting and relaxing happen also. It's also one of the first rooms in any home to become cluttered and overwhelming.You are invited to join the free course for this series where each Monday you'll receive access to a new podcast episode, decluttering checklist and organising cheat sheet (as well as some surprise bonuses), all so you can declutter and organise like a pro!Make sure to join to download your Living Room Check List & Cheat SheetYou may also like to listen to these episodes:Living RoomSentimental ItemsLike with LikeRepurposing SpacesBoard Games & PuzzlesRoom to BloomBehind Cupboard DoorsBooks & MagazinesHidden ClutterMagazinesMemorabiliaJoin our communityBecome a Patron – your monthly donation makes a huge difference to me being able to produce this podcast.

Ep. 5: Do you struggle to let go of sentimental items? In this episode, I share my experience with decluttering sentimental items after my mother passed away when I was 24 years old. You'll hear some perspective shifts that helped me not hold onto every little thing that reminded me of her. I dive into letting go of baby items for our kids, deciding what *is* special to keep, and a big question that I've learned to ask myself because of what happened one afternoon flipping through old yearbooks.

But today let's take a look at a social category of stuff, our sentimental items. What do we like to keep just because it reminds us of a past moment and how do we display and use these things in our current lives? How many sentimental items do we keep, what do they remind us of and how do we think they will change with time?

We all hold onto certain things that have no functional or monetary value. Whether it's an old ticket stub or a shirt that no longer fits, these items often hold a lot of sentimental value. A quick inventory of the sentimental items you hold onto can actually give you some good insight into how you feel about yourself. Research shows there's a clear link between the items you hold onto and your self-worth. Here's what your sentimental objects might reveal about you.
As a follow on from last weeks episode all about digital photos, today we explore how to best keep, store, enjoy, share and display our physical photos. Whether you're the keeper of family history or completely unsentimental, there are tips here for you. We chat about a listener dilemma on how to manage creating photo books and also chat about why it's harder to declutter physical photos than digital.Chantal shares her tips around scanning physical photos and we issue a challenge - to walk around your house noticing with fresh eyes what photos you have displayed and whether you do still want to display them. Do you have any current photos? Jump into our Facebook Community to share how you went and if you decluttered any displayed photos or went and got some printed to upgrade the frames around your house.Find Chantal on her website or listen to her podcast DIY Photo OrganisingYou may also like to listen to these episodes:Digital PhotosPhoto Organising with Chantal ImbachPhotosSentimental ItemsJoin our community Become a Patron – your monthly donation makes a huge difference to me being able to produce this podcast.

What's your number? 9,000... 90,000? How many digital photos to you have on your phone? Do you have them backed up? Are they categorised? Could you find a specific photo within a few minutes? Today I have a conversation with Chantal Imbach from Photos in Order and discuss everything to do with digital photos. We cover the best way to store and back up photos and some options on how to enjoy your photos instead of hoarding them on a hard drive. We also answer a listener dilemma about how to minimise the risk of losing photos when you sync devices and how to have everything together rather than on multiple drives around the house.Find Chantal on her website or listen to her podcast DIY Photo OrganisingYou may also like to listen to these episodes:Photo Organising with Chantal ImbachPhotosSentimental ItemsJoin our community Become a Patron – your monthly donation makes a huge difference to me being able to produce this podcast.

Clutter is something we all have to deal with at times. The biggest problem with clutter is not the item itself, but it's in the emotional attachment we feel. This episode comes in response to a recent question I received: “Do you have any advice for going through boxes of stuff I'm emotionally attached to?” Let's take a closer look at this important part in your functional space journey. Show Highlights: The only reason to declutter How to identify what you can do with items you don't plan to keep Why your decluttering goals are important–and may differ from someone else's The steps to decluttering by categories: Is it broken, expired, incomplete, or unusable? What do I want to keep? When it comes to keeping or getting rid of items, which is more important to me–the freedom of having it gone or the security in knowing it's there? For sentimental items: Will this person know I've gotten rid of this item? If I get rid of this item, will I feel guilty momentarily or for a long time? Is the guilt I feel for getting rid of this item heavier than the weight I feel from having it around? Why you have to honor your emotional context while aiming for functionalism When you might need extra support in decluttering Why it's better to keep sentimental items out of joy–not guilt Workable solutions for excessive sentimental items What I've learned about getting rid of clothes Resources: Connect with KC: TikTok, Instagram, and Website (Click the “Hygiene” tab under “Resources” for more information about teeth brushing!)

Courtney Carver talks about how to let go of sentimental items Episode 2507: How To Let Go of Sentimental Items by Courtney Carver Courtney Carver was stopped in her tracks with a scary MS diagnosis after decades of debt, discontent, and trying to do it all. She had to slow down, prioritize her health, and figure out what was really important in her life. She discovered what mattered most by getting rid of everything that didn't matter at all. In the end it all came down to love and health. She went from a busy, overwhelmed advertising director to spending 2-3 hours every morning taking care of herself, loving her work, and being present and engaged with the people she loves. Her family changed, too. They moved from wanting bigger closets, nicer furniture, and more stuff to downsizing into a 750 sq. ft apartment with no storage. Courtney has written books, courses, and hundreds of articles to help you simplify your life and work so you can focus on what really matters.
