You're listening to the Decluttered Mom podcast.

A podcast built specifically for busy moms by a busy mom.

I'm your host, Diana Renee.

And in 2017, I had my second daughter and it felt like I was literally drowning in my home.

Okay, not literally.

But I felt like I couldn't breathe with all of the stuff surrounding me.

Over the next 10 months, I got rid of approximately 70% of our household belongings,

and I have never looked back. I kind of feel like I hacked the mom

system, and I'm here to share all the tips, tricks, and encouragement. Let's listen to today's show.

Welcome to another episode of the Decluttered Mom podcast. I wanted to share a clip with you from when Miss Six was newly four. She had just turned four. And first of all, listening to audio of her tiny little voice when she had just heard four and she she was in speech for

gosh how long was she in speech? She was in speech for about four years and she was in occupational

therapy for about a year and a half. So just hearing her little words is just so cute and sweet

and brings me back. But that's not the point of

that. That's not the point of this podcast. I wanted to share this clip with you because when I first

was going through my whole decaltering journey, she was a baby. She was a brand new baby. She was only about three months old

when I first started the process. And so she had zero clue about what was going on. However,

Miss nine, my nine year old, was three at the time. And so she had already developed a lot of attachment to things and had never

seen me let go of physical items. She had never seen me go through the process before. We had

never talked about it before. And even though she was only three, there was already some things that I had to work

with her on on being able to let go. And even now at age nine, she does great with it. You can hear

her on a previous episode where she gives great tips and advice to other kids who are going

through the process with their parents.
