What exactly happens when I come to your home?
First I don't judge. I've been there, stressed and busy and feeling buried by my stuff.
Second we decluttter together! It's always more fun with company, and more motivating!
We go to your pre picked room or area (should be an area that once decluttered will make a big impact on your day) and begin with the easy things, clearly garbage, and work from there, though each basket and drawer and pile.

My goal is that you can donate, trash, or remove from your area around 50% of your stuff. I help keep you on task and act as a sounding board for you processing weather or not to keep an item. Sometime people need to hear it's OK to let that item go, or if its to much for you to even touch in item then I'm more than happy to go though it for u. I'll mark, sort, and move your items to your car or mine for donation, while u continue to work, so in the end you can see the actual progress you made.
You can keep anything you want just not everything.
In the end rooms, cabinet, closets and tables function better with less things in and on them. Giving you more time to do what you truly love, which I'm sure isn't cleaning or organizing piles of stuff.

Your mental health matters. Dawn Maddison from the Minamal Mom speaks about how you matter more than your clutter, and the guilt associated with clutter is not more important than your health. How just getting rid of the stuff no matter how is more important than stressing and finding the perfect way to donate or recycle that object.

Minimalism has saved my mental health and given me the freedom to be a better wife and mother💜

Hey I'm Cate.

I would like to take a moment and share more about my journey to simple living.

I started my journey back in 2014. I read Marie Kondos book The Life Changing Art of Tidying Up, and then proceeded to go though my entire home. And it helped a lot. I continued to apply thoes concepts throughout the next 4 years and the births of my boys.
We moved, and I went though the entire house again, and again it helped. Still applying the question does this item bring joy, but for me that wasn't enough. Moving was stressful and we still had so much stuff!

In 2018 I discovered minimalism, a more simple approachthat removed the emotions from decluttering. I started to work more towards that but never fully grasped it.
Fast forward to fall of 2019 I realized if I truly wanted to gain control of my home and be the mom I knew I could be I had to get rid of stuff. The anxiety and depression I was feeling, regarding the house hold things was tough. I was working part time, re finishing a house and raising 2 small boys.

And then I stumbled across Dawn the Minamal Mom, and started trash bag therapy. The rest was history. Nothing was safe, and I made ruthless cuts. And with every bag I let go the better I felt. The less I yelled the more time I spent just being with my husband and children. And then I realized I was able to think about things I hadn't realized I missed. Dream about our life, relax and enjoy my life that I had spent a decade working toward.
2021 brought more changes. We decided to move states again, Indiana to Ohio, and I went back to work full time. The long distance move was pretty easy, we are hobby farmers but besides the outside stuff, our home fit in the back of a 26ft uhal, and then more than comfortably in a 2 car grage. My house, though under construction once again is still manageable, we had to live in our camper temporaply, while we fixed up our house initaly, and that was also doable with room to spare. I can spend time working on our house, hanging out with our kids, and gardening. Things I love to do, cause the house works and managment is easy.

I would love the opportunity to help you on your declutering journey, weather that's just to make a room usable again or stove for something closer to minalmlisim. ❤️
