How To Declutter When You Don't Want To Let Go

Stephing Up Podcast

How do you declutter when you have an emotional attachment to something? 

Maybe that dress you wore when you were 12 that you might need again one day? Or the million and one artworks that your kids made you as babies?

As someone who has moved 8 times, I feel like a certified pro at letting go of sentimental items … EVEN when you’re coming with every reason not to

On my decluttering journey, I have found that there are 3 questions to help you decide if an item is truly worth holding onto. Tune in to today’s episode to find out what they are, as well as tips and tricks to push the guilt and finally reclaim your home.

You’ll hear:

✨Tips on how to deal with EMOTIONAL guilt when it comes to throwing away old presents

✨Creative ways to preserve memories without hoarding physical objects

✨Easy storage hacks for organising and maintaining the essentials

… and so much more
