0:10.0

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

I'm your host, Diana Renee.

0:16.1

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

0:22.8

Okay, not literally, but I felt like I couldn't breathe with all of the stuff surrounding me.

0:29.2

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

0:39.5

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

0:46.3

today's show. All right, so for today on the Decluttered Mom podcast, we have a call-in show, which I, we haven't done one of these in a long time, like at least a year. And I really like these. They're really fun because I get to hear your actual voice. And as I've said many times on here, I feel like I'm speaking into a void. And so it's really been fun to get these call in questions because I can hear you ask me. And so if you have, if you're newer to the show and you've never heard one of these, we actually have a recording of a listener who called in and left a message

that you can go click the link. It's a really, really simple process. You just go to the web page

1:59.8

and you click a button and you record.

2:03.6

It can't be simpler than that, right? You don't have to register or do anything like that.

2:08.2

We just ask that you leave your first name and the state you're calling from in your recording.

2:13.9

But besides that, it's just, it's just fun. It's like, I feel like it's like a flashback to my

2:20.7

childhood of the 80s and 90s listening to like the call-in radio shows, you know. So, all right,

2:27.2

let's just jump into today's episode.

2:31.9

Hi there. This is Laura from Virginia. How do you organize your calendars? I have a work calendar. I have an

2:40.1

eight by 11 calendar that I keep in my office. I have a giant two foot by three foot calendar for the kids

for all their activities so that they can read and try to be
