Summary
In this episode:
We talk about decluttering your closet and how to help make decisions about what to get rid of and what just needs to be put away
We address how you know when it is actually the container that is too small or if we still just have too much stuff
We cover suggestions on how to make the most of your time without feeling resentful, especially when you have a large amount of time off (ie: teacher/summer)
