Episode 583: 583: Why “Just in Case” is a Trap: Your Guide to Living Clutter-Free

Do any of these sound like you?

  • I’m afraid to get rid of things, because what if I need it in the future and don’t have money to replace it?
  • My kids’ notes and artwork are all so special and I can’t part with any of it!
  • I better buy three of those, that way I’ll always be able to find at least one.

If so, then today’s podcast is for you! In this session Kathi chats with self-proclaimed “pack rat” Amy Betters-Midtvedt about her process of digging out from under all the clutter. They talk about green bananas, earring emergencies, and how worry and sentimentality can trip us up. You don’t want to miss it!

This conversation is a small part of the Abundant Home Conference – a half-day conference held exclusively for members of Kathi Lipp’s Clutter Free for Life membership community. Are you ready to take the next step in your decluttering journey? The step-by-step plan inside Clutter Free for Life can guide you, and the community you find there will encourage you to keep going. It’s time to change the way you think about your home and your stuff!

In this episode, Kathi and Amy discuss fears that cause us to hang on to stuff.

Question: What are you hanging on to, not because you love it and use it, but because of fear?
