Do you ever look around your home wondering why it feels more cluttered, despite your decluttering efforts? In this “Best Of” episode, Kathi and her decluttering partner Roger are uncovering this mystery by clueing us into five reasons our homes may be more cluttered:

1. You don’t know what you have, so you keep buying more.
2. You have backups for your backups. (We’re looking at you, broken can-opener in the garage!) 
3. You are storing things for other people, with no limit or deadline.
4. You are holding onto things for “some day.” (Is that item something you would buy again today?)
5. You are keeping tools that were useful in a past season of life. Your life has changed and moved on, so now those items have become clutter. 

Clutter is a battle that has to be fought on every side. Together let’s learn how to break these habits that leave us with more clutter and less peace. Want some encouragement on the journey? Join us on Facebook in Kathi Lipp’s Clutter Free Academy.
