Summary

Maintenance. It feels pointless and impossible when there’s so much that needs to be done FIRST! But maintenance, even when the house is in shambles, is the key to making maintainable progress. Really. I’m talking about the parallels between my recent gardening (jungle-recovery) efforts and when I first started my deslobification process. Sign up for […]

0:00.0	Hi y'all, it's Dana. If you're listening to older episodes, I am coming to you from the future.
0:04.9	April of 2023 to be exact, I'm so excited that my new podcast host allows me to do this.
0:11.1	Since I know many of you who listen are listening to earlier episodes or you're skipping around,
0:16.2	and I want to be sure that you hear the news that the Take Your Houseback course is on sale
0:22.1	through May 3rd for $94. People have been emailing saying, what is it going to go on sale again?
0:28.0	This is when, right now. Okay, I am so proud of this course that I created with Dawn from the
0:33.2	minimal mom and cast from Clutterbug who are both fantastic YouTubers. Y'all, the changes
0:40.0	that course members have made in their homes is truly amazing. If you want to learn more,
0:46.0	to see if it's an investment that makes sense for you for your home, go to aslabcomesclean.com-take
0:53.6	to learn more. Again, that's aslabcomesclean.com-take now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
1:02.3	Welcome to Aslabcomesclean, the podcast. I'm Dana K. White. I blog over at aslabcomesclean.com.
1:09.2	That's where I share my personal deslabification process as I figure out ways to keep my own home

1:21.0	life for real people. People who don't love cleaning and organizing. Thanks for joining me today.
1:26.5	This is podcast number 259 and I'm calling it the thing about maintenance. Isn't maintenance just
1:35.4	that thing that is like, wow, I'm already doing so good. I can't think of the word. It's that thing
1:43.6	in the sky that we just think maintenance. That's my goal. I want to get to the point
1:51.7	where all I have to worry about is maintenance. And it's true. I mean, maintenance is actually the
2:01.0	thing, the number one thing, the actual thing that changed my home. But it didn't happen at all
2:08.7	the way that I had always assumed it would. And so I think that it's really important to acknowledge
2:15.4	that disconnect, that idea of what it actually means to maintain and what it means to
2:23.5	get to the point of being in this maintenance phase versus what you actually need to do.
