Welcome to the show. So today I wanted to talk to you guys about a really frequently asked

question that I get, and that is this, how do I get my husband

on board with decluttering? And what is usually meant by that is, how do I get my husband on board

with decluttering his own stuff? Because most spouses, let's face it, are on board with us getting

rid of our own junk or the kids' stuff, but

theirs is another story. Whether you've had that conversation with your spouse and haven't gained any

traction, or maybe you're just feeling apprehensive about the conversation and how he'll receive

your decluttering agenda. We'll be talking about all of that today.

So on the show today is my husband, Andrew. And Andrew and I have been married for almost eight

years. And today we just, you know, wanted to have a super real conversation about clutter,

our declutter journey and how it really impacted both of us individually and together as a family.

He will also be sharing his aha moment when he realized that the impact decluttering was having on

our home, how it was helping our finances, and also our family.

And finally, he'll be letting us know his best tips for increasing your chances of finally getting your spouse on board

with decluttering his own stuff so that you can ultimately see even more success in your home.

Let's dive in.

All right, Andrew, welcome to the show.
