The Art of Decluttering - Peter Walsh: Letting Go

Peter Walsh: Letting Go

The Art of Decluttering

play

11/19/23 • 24 min

Peter talks this week about being an advocate for people when you are invited into their homes. How Professional Organisers are there to help you achieve the life you want, and how he is committed to doing everything in his capacity to help you, even when you feel unable to help yourself.


Our lives are stages, and the stuff we hold onto are representations of those seasons. Even though it's hard to let go of things from our past, it frees us up to live today and celebrate the past without having it hold us back.


We also discuss the power of empathy, how to work with clients without judgement, and what it looks like to be a 'hope bringer' to those we work with.

Have you ever come home from shopping at the sales and wondered how you ended up buying clothes you really didn't need? Have you ever wondered how you can shop ethically and without wastage?

From their years of experience, Kirsty & Amy share their experiences around decluttering and organising your wardrobe.

06/09/24 • 17 min

When was the last time you got genuinely excited about doing a stocktake in your home? Oh man, it's one of my FAVOURITE things to do, especially in the kitchen.


In my house, we call a kitchen stocktake EAT YOURSELF OUT OF HOUSE AND HOME and the concept is we use up as much as we can from our fridge, freezer and pantry over the month of June. One year we saved $1000 in groceries by cooking and eating food which we'd already purchased!


The best place to start with a stocktake is your kitchen, but you could do it with clothes, toys, business supplies, office supplies, kitchen plastics... wherever you keep inventory (so basically everywhere) you can do a stocktake for the purpose of knowing exactly what you have and then deciding exactly what you think you'll need in the future.


Learn how to do a stocktake in your home, how it can help you save time money and energy (new word... monergy!!)

The Art of Decluttering - Time Will Tell

Time Will Tell

The Art of Decluttering

04/07/24 • 8 min

If you've got items you'd really LIKE to declutter but you're a bit nervous... why not give a Time Will Tell Box a go.


Pop items you need just a little bit more time to decide on into a box to assess again in a few months. Seal it up and write the date on the box. See what you think in a few months... hopefully once you've experienced living without the items you'll then be ready to donate the items in your Time Will Tell Box.


Before you open the box, try to think what might be in there that you've missed. You might be surprised that you forget what you put in... in which case send it off for donation!


Remember to declutter as much as you can and then only put the items in the time will tell box if you absolutely need to. It's a backstop, not a full stop.

Do you have a cardboard box problem? Do you see POTENTIAL in every 'good' box and keep it 'just in case you need it?' Today we're learning to break free from this source of clutter!


Whether it's delivery boxes, mailing boxes, gift boxes, product boxes... boxes seem to multiply in every home our team visit. Some boxes just seem 'too good' to throw away and instead they clutter up our homes and wardrobes and garages and spare rooms.


It's time to release our hold on cardboard boxes, if you don't have an immediate use for the box, let it go! I also chat through some alternative options for using boxes as well as creative ways to enjoy them before letting them go.
