Ep 166: What My Daughter Had to Say about Decluttering and Living Clutter Free

If you have kids, you know that they have their own ideas about everything. The same is true in our household and I wanted to get the true confessions from our daughter about what it’s like to declutter when your mom considers herself a minimalist.


I was thrilled that she didn’t hold back and what I was hoping would be a 20 minute conversation turned into 45 minutes of thoughtful commentary.


It was cool to get her ideas on what she would change about her room, how she feels about decluttering, what she regrets letting go of, if she’s jealous of friend’s things, and her advice for you too.


Give it a listen because the perspective shift is enlightening and I think you’re going to get some tips you never expected.


This episode of the Wannabe Clutter Free podcast will help you discover:

  • A kid’s view on decluttering
  • How to help your kids declutter
  • What you should never do when decluttering with kids
  • Why timing is important for decluttering with kids
