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,

0:23.7

but I felt like I couldn't breathe with all of the stuff surrounding me. Over the next 10 months,

0:30.3

I got rid of approximately 70% of our household belongings and I have never looked back.

0:42.6

I kind of feel like I hacked the mom system, and I'm here to share all the tips,

0:44.4

tricks, and encouragement.

0:46.5

Let's listen to today's show.

Welcome to another episode of the decluttered mom podcast. In a few minutes, I have a guest for you who's very special. She is my eight-year-old, and you may have heard her in another episode several years ago. I think she came on when she was five. I think she came on when she was five, and my 11-year- old came on when she was eight. So that's a little

confusing. But we can link those episodes in the show notes if you want to go back and listen to them.

1:46.0

decluttering sprees in their households. And so definitely go back and listen to those episodes again.

1:52.5

Like I said, we'll put them in the show notes. But I think they were, they're so fun and they were so

1:56.1

cute. And so my eight-year-old who was five for the last episode has been itching to come back on.

2:03.9

And I told her, I said, but you got to have some tips.

2:06.2

You got to have some valuable tips so that the kids that are listening with their moms can learn something.

2:12.7

Okay.
