MythBuster: Why You Don't Need to Wait Until January to Declutter

Maximized Minimalist Podcast

Think January is the only time to tackle that clutter? Nah. Let’s bust that myth wide open. Waiting until the new year might sound cute, but spoiler alert: it’s actually setting you up for more mess and more stress.

In this episode, we’re talking about why right now is the best time to start decluttering. Not January, not “when things calm down”—but today. You’ll learn why waiting just piles on more clutter (thanks, holiday gifts), why starting small makes a big difference, and how a few simple changes can keep you from drowning in stuff before the year even ends.

What you’ll hear:

  • Why waiting until January might be the worst decluttering advice ever.
  • Easy, no-pressure ways to declutter while you go about your day (spoiler: you’re probably already doing it).
  • The genius trick that makes letting go of stuff feel like zero effort.
  • How to set up your home so clutter doesn’t sneak back in. Ever.

Stop letting future-you handle everything. Present-you can totally handle a little decluttering right now, and trust me—you’ll feel a whole lot lighter going into the holidays.

Hit play to find out how to start decluttering TODAY, without breaking a sweat.
