Did y'all know that I train and certified decluttering coaches to guide you through my

no mess decluttering process? I am so excited to let you know that 18 of my certified speed of life

decluttering coaches are teaching six-week live decluttering workshops starting in February. The curriculum

for this class is based on the strategies in my book, Decluttering at the Speed of Life,

and these classes are a fantastic opportunity to learn these strategies in a live situation

with class discussions and an instructor who can answer your questions.
