Summary

Hey Clutterbugs! Let’s bust some Spring Cleaning myths while we get you motivated to reclaim your house NOW! I’m serving up some tough love to help you tackle the clutter and take your house back. From radical decluttering strategies to identifying wasted space, I’ll show you how to stop procrastinating, embrace “good enough,” and get results. You don’t need anything but a trash bag and some elbow grease. I’m sharing a story from a recent makeover (it’s in progress now! Stay tuned!). We transformed the entire first floor of a house without spending a dime. And most importantly, I’ll share the same four questions I asked that homeowner. You don’t need a renovation or a big budget to create a home that works for you. You just need to listen to this podcast and get moving. Let’s do this TOGETHER! Want to get organized?

0:00.0	on top of your house instead of actually living in it. No, I don't mean on your roof. This is like a
0:06.7	crazy question and you're probably thinking, not really, Cass, but I will challenge you because
0:11.1	every single client's home, even when I go to friends and families homes, I am seeing people doing
0:18.6	this living on top instead of in. And here's what it looks like. You have
0:25.0	your house and then you have children and now suddenly there's kids toys everywhere, like on
0:30.2	top of the floor, on top of the sofa, on top of all the flat surfaces. It's on top of
0:36.5	your actual home. Maybe you love crafting or your kids love to do
0:40.9	crafts and you have homework, but it's all over your kitchen table because you have no place for it to go.
0:45.6	It's on top of your life, not in your life. Does this make sense? And it's really hard for you to see your home and its potential,
0:57.8	because when you look at it, you're seeing the stuff, the individual things. You're seeing those
1:02.0	totes that are filled with memories you have to go through. You're seeing all those extra craft

1:21.0	really hard to see the forest through the trees. But that's what we're doing today. I am going to

1:29.1	look at your house differently, and I'm going to inspire and motivate you to take action so you can
1:33.8	start living in your house instead of on it, so that you can make radical decluttering decisions
1:39.1	so that you can drastically change the layout of your home. We're going to be moving furniture probably up in here.
1:46.4	But here's what I can promise you. Your life will be better and it will be worth it. So we're
1:52.8	bringing a little tough love today and I'm going to ask you some questions. I'm going to share some
1:56.9	stories with you. But I also want you to be taking action, not necessarily on the things
