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 this episode of the Decluttered Mom podcast.

Today I have Spencer Russell on. And Spencer is someone that I found on Instagram, I think about a year ago, maybe a little bit longer. And I share

this with him on the episode. So this is not new for him to hear. But when I first saw his profile,

my first thought was skepticism. I was like,

I don't know about this. And it's because his handle is toddlers can read. And to me that at the time felt very like just out there. Like that's not really a thing that's not possible I don't really

understand like why would you even want your toddler to read but I started going through his

content I just found it super super interesting and he and I have become friends now over the

past year and I think he has a really interesting story of how his business kind of

came to life. And also just he is a, he just has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to

literacy and kids and how they best learn to read. And so even though his handle is toddlers can read, he helps parents

basically at any age if their kids are struggling to read or if they are just really little

and they want to get them off on the right foot for their future education. So this is actually

going to be a two-part episode because we talked

for a long time. And as you know, I like to keep these episodes short so that you can listen to

them in smaller spurts. And so each episode is going to be roughly 20 to 25 minutes. And

let's just jump into the first part.
