Hi Friends! Today we are in week 497 millionth of quarantine….and despite the uncertainty and frustration that many of us are feeling, there are parts of life that still must continue, and Spring Cleaning is one of them! I am so grateful to have my good friend, Rick Hall joining me today from Little Rock, Arkansas to share his own organizing tips. We kick off the episode talking about Rick’s recent trip to NYC literally as “shelter in place” took effect. He also shares his story of losing his job as a result of the pandemic, and how he is using this time to peel back the curtain and declutter his home. We talk about what his decluttering process looks like How long it took him The hardest thing for him to purge What surprised him along the way His love of converse sneakers 🙂 And his take-aways when the project was completed We also unpack Rick’s dominant type of clutter, which of the 5 pitfalls he gravitates to, and the lessons he learned from his mom. Rick offers some actionable strategies if you are feeling stuck in the middle or unmotivated to get started. It was so great to chat with my dear friend, especially during this time of social distancing and isolation. This conversation made me smile and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! xo- Laurie P.S. If you are tackling a decluttering project, we’d love to see it!
