Clear the Clutter for Good!

This week my guest is Julie Morgenstern!  Julie Morgenstern is one of the leading experts on organization, business productivity, and time management.

In this episode, We discussed her book SHED,  SHED your Stuff, Change your Life!  

Since it’s Spring and some of us are focusing on decluttering, I thought it would be fun to revisit this episode which was originally recorded at the beginning of 2020 so may have been missed by some new listeners!  

Julie’s book will help you clear the cutter for good! She takes a different approach by using the SHED process. Moving beyond throwing things out and walks you thru the pitfalls of decluttering

Julie reminds us that Decluttering  is identifying what’s obsolete and no longer serves you

Organizing is designing systems that make  you more efficient where you are right now

Here is what you’ll learn!

SHED stands for 

Separate the Treasures

Heave the Trash

Embrace your Identity

Drive yourself Forward

Finding your Theme:  What is your big picture?  What do you want to express or experience in the future?  What do you need to let go of and where are you heading?

Points of Entry!  

Clutter is not junk!  Clutter is an attachment to something you are struggling to release. Ask yourself what does it represent?  Go in with love and tenderness for yourself.  

Being in the present moment!  

You can also use this process to evaluate your commitments,  schedule and habits!
