0:00.0	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,
0:23.5	but I felt like I couldn't breathe with all of the stuff surrounding me. Over the next 10 months,
0:30.5	I got rid of approximately 70% of our household belongings and I have never looked back.
0:39.6	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.
0:49.9	Welcome to another episode of the Decluttered Mom podcast. Today is actually going to be a follow-up
0:55.9	episode to one that released on April 16th. It was episode number 90, and it was called
1:03.0	What is Decanting and Why Would You Do That? And I got a lot of questions after that episode,
1:09.6	basically from people saying, okay, I want to decant
1:13.7	now and I need help figuring out like the actual logistics of doing that and figuring out what
1:20.2	type of containers to use and all of that. So if you have not listened to that episode, please
1:25.6	go listen to that episode first. We will link it in the show
1:29.0	notes. And again, it's episode number 90. Please go listen to that because that's going to
1:34.8	definitely give you the framework for what we're even talking about. And you're going to need to
1:39.5	understand that before today will make sense for you. So as we talked about in that episode, decanting is not
1:48.8	something that you necessarily have to do to organize in your home or in your kitchen, but it can be
1:55.6	helpful in several situations. And again, go listen to that first episode because it's going to talk about
2:01.4	what those specific situations or reasons why you might want to decant. So today we're going to
2:07.2	talk a little bit more about the actual process of figuring out what type of containers to use
2:13.4	and how to make best use of the pantry space when we are talking about decanting.
2:19.8	So the pantry is one of those spaces in your home that can easily become out of control when it comes to organizing.
2:28.9	And what I mean by that is it can be simple to drop literally thousands of dollars on organizing containers
2:37.1	when it comes to the pantry if we are trying to emulate some things that we see on social media.
