How do I get my family to help me clean the house?

This is by far the number one question that I get asked and honestly it's a struggle

for me too but we're going to talk about five techniques that apparently are amazing

to trick our family into helping us clean the house.

Hey Clutterbugs, welcome back to the Clutterbug podcast.

We're talking about getting family members to help out around the house.

I feel like this is such a universal thing and not every family struggles with this but

I know I struggle with this in my family and I got an email from Sarah and it really

hit home for me.

Basically her email said, I feel unloved, disrespected and I feel like giving up.

No one in my house seems to care about the state of our house.

I'm the only one doing the cleaning and I feel so resentful.

Maybe you can relate.

I definitely can relate and I've tried a ton of things, some have worked, some have

not but I want to talk about five techniques today.

I need to do this work too.

My family helps out a lot more than they ever had in the past but they definitely could

be doing more and I know it starts with me.

I hate to say that.

It feels I wish it didn't start with me but the truth is I have to be the catalyst for

change and a big part of the change that did happen in my own home was my own mindset

shift I guess.
