Is it possible to really change how I clean my house?

We recently went through the whole process of dealing with my mother-in-law’s possessions after her death. I was grateful for the decluttering and downsizing we’d already done over the past few years. I will be sharing about this process in upcoming podcasts, but first I decided it was important to talk about the realities of getting someone else to declutter.

    I know you feel self-conscious about feeling “preachy”, but your podcasts I remember the most (and internalize the most) are the ones that you share the most in.
    My husband and I lost our younger son several years ago and I lost both of my parents a few years ago. I have pretty much cried all the actual tears I’m going to cry but you made my eyes leak last week. This week you made my eyes leak some more because we’re dealing with darling hubby’s aged parents and their clutter right now. You are wise and speak to my heart so frequently! And, you help us declutter. You’re pretty much the favorite “voice in my head”.

    Dana,

    Thanks so much for sharing your insights about decluttering your home and living spaces. My deepest sympathies to you and your family. Thank you for sharing your story. Our family had to clean out our Mother’s home and it was quite the process. She now lives in a nursing home. My niece resides with me. I apply many of your concepts and my home is much better. My niece expressed how really appreciates how I look after my home and want to learn how to declutter more. I am going to give her copies of your books. Just wanted to share. Dana,you inspire so many with your blog and podcasts re decluttering. Life happens for everyone. Keep up the awesome work!

    I gotta say- when you first said “I’m a dripper,” I thought, “Wow! Texans just put it all out there! 😂” But my ears perked up because I’m a dripper too, but then I realized you meant food and not pee. Oh well! I’m a food dripper too… 😂😂 love your podcast! Thanks for keeping it real and humorous!

    Loved listening to this, I am worried about my great-grandparents, they have 3 kids, none of who are very interested in helping them clean or organize the house they have been living in for 50 years (they are in their mid 80s). I live an hour or so away, and have been thinking that I should make time to go down and gradually help them a room at a time go through things at their pace, just to help it not be so overwhelming later, but don’t want to cause a rift amongst their kids, either.
