Decluttering to Create Space

Today, I’m joined by the fantastic Tracy McCubbin and our discussion is all about decluttering and organization, topics that resonate with us all. Tracy, the CEO of dClutterfly and author of “Making Space Clutter-Free” and “Making Space for Happiness,” brings her expertise to the table, helping us conquer clutter in our lives and create room for positive change.

Tracy delves deep into the heart of clutter, uncovering its root causes and offering practical, actionable solutions. We explore how to manage clutter within a family, especially when everyone has different ideas of what an organized space should be. Tracy provides invaluable steps to prevent feeling overwhelmed during the decluttering process, encouraging gradual, meaningful changes.

The highlight of our conversation is Tracy’s breakdown of the seven clutter magnets, the primary culprits behind our disarray. She also stresses the importance of establishing a sustainable home organization system that you can consistently rely on. Tracy’s approach is refreshingly down-to-earth, empowering us to transform our homes without the pressure of discarding everything we own. If you crave a more peaceful and goal-aligned home, tune in!

“Once you get decluttered organizing is really just putting things back where they belong in the homes you’ve decided for them.”
