My people (whom I call my people because they tell me we think the same way) tend to have a lot of different “issues” that make getting started decluttering harder than it should be. I’ve had to learn to get over these issues, and my job is helping you get over them, too. One specific hangup is that people like me worry about what counts as decluttering. We want our efforts (at something we don’t love doing) to count. And if something isn’t going to count as decluttering, we question whether we should do it.
While we’re questioning, we’re not actually decluttering.
I’m talking about this concept of what “counts” as decluttering.

This podcast gave me permission to complete the project of re-stuffing and sewing up my girls oversized stuffed animals (Big Moose and Big Bear to be specific). They have been leaking stuffing for over a year. I bought batting weeks ago and everytime the younger cousins have come over, batting mysteriously ends up all over the basement. I finally brought the bag of batting and animals upstairs last week to remind me to get the job finished (and out of cousins’ sight). Big Bear and Big Moose have made the couch their cuddle spot and have been a taking up valuable living room space. I “realized” that getting that project done would remove two adult-sized stuffed animals, batting and sewing kit from my living room. Stuffed. Sewn. And back to their cuddle corner in my girls room!
