Episode 613: 5 Steps to Unstuff Your House

Are you feeling trapped in a home overstuffed with, well, STUFF? You’re not alone! In the latest episode of Clutter Free Academy, Kathi teams up with Tenneil Register, an incredible mom who mastered the art of living clutter free – even in the tight quarters of a fixer-upper with a blended family of seven! Tune in for their tips on:

  • Making your house a home instead of a storage unit
  • Using things you love as creative storage solutions
  • Letting go of things that are no longer your vibe

In this honest, practical conversation, Kathi and Tenneil discuss the realities of blending families, seasonal organizing, setting functional storage rules, and making decluttering an ongoing part of life. They share actionable strategies such as acknowledging and accepting the clutter, sorting and categorizing with intention, implementing storage with pieces you love, redefining your relationship with stuff (even if you're not a minimalist), and embracing the time it takes to curate a truly comfortable, functional home. Real-life anecdotes highlight how letting go can make room for deeper joy and connection. Whether your house is packed to the rafters, you're facing a remodel, or just seeking some inspiration, this episode is packed with relatable wisdom and encouragement.
