With the new year comes a new surge of energy for me to GET MY LIFE IN ORDER! My kids always laugh at me when I get these bursts of motivation because they never last. They roll their eyes and humor me as I declare plans to declutter our home and patiently wait for my resolve to fizzle. Is this cycle familiar to you too? Well, if so, you’re in for a treat. I truly believe that with some mindset shifts and a deeper commitment to our WHY for decluttering our homes, this can be the year that decluttering actually sticks.  My guest today, Erica Layne from The Life on Purpose Movement, believes this too. On this week’s episode, Erica will share: - The simple mindset shift that can make it easier to "get to work" when you're feeling overwhelmed by your messy house.  - What clutter does (and does NOT) say about you.  - The best way to approach decluttering with sentimental items. Are you ready to start the decluttering process and follow through this time? Let’s do this! Plus, if you’re looking to dive deeper into mental decluttering, my Declutter Your Motherhood Course is currently $50 off through the end of January.  For full show notes, including takeaways, click here.  *** Announcements:  - Sign up for my Declutter Your Motherhood Course and get $50 off through the end of January!
