0:00.0	You're listening to the decluttered mom podcast.
0:10.0	A podcast built specifically for busy moms by a busy mom.
0:14.3	I'm your host, Diana Renee.
0:16.0	And in 2017, I had my second daughter and it felt like I was literally drowning in my home.
0:22.7	Okay, not literally, but I felt like I couldn't breathe with all of the stuff surrounding me.
0:29.0	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,
0:40.2	and I'm here to share all the tips, tricks, and encouragement. Let's listen to today's show.
0:49.5	Welcome to this episode of the Decluttered Mom podcast. I have a two-part episode for you because it got kind of long as I was talking through everything. And I know that we love to keep our episodes short and to the point. So it's just going to be two episodes approximately 20 minutes long. And basically I'm going
1:13.6	into the whole journey of finding and getting rid of mold in our home over the last few months.
1:21.2	So this is kind of like a vulnerable and emotional topic for me because it's just been very, very overwhelming and

1:38.5	full-time job and parenting and all of that all while not living in our home. And so it's been really intense.
1:45.4	But I know that if you follow me on Instagram, you have had lots of questions about what's
1:51.4	going on and how do we find it and how do we take care of it and all of that, which is totally
1:56.4	understandable. Like I would be super curious also. And so I really wanted to just go through the full
2:02.1	story and have it here so that I could guide people to this episode or these two episodes and it explains everything in and out in detail. So let's just jump into it.
2:22.4	Welcome to this episode of the Decluttered Mom podcast.
2:29.9	Today I'm going to talk about what in the world has been going on in our home over the past few months.
2:31.4	If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen that we had to move
2:35.8	out in very early February. It is now the end of April and we are hoping to move in this
2:41.9	weekend. But we have been staying at my in-laws. And that's because we had discovered mold in our
2:49.8	house, which so fun, right? That's exactly the type of surprise
