In this episode, I talk about a central topic of decluttering: why you feel connected to items you own. It's normal to feel strong emotions about your home. However, the organization and design of your space are morally neutral. We use invented societal standards to judge ourselves and our homes. But you are more than your stuff. It's necessary to unlearn this way of thinking and embrace that your things are just things; they aren’t who you are.If you find it difficult to let go of what you own, I'll invite you to get curious about the stories of your past that may be tying you to your belongings. Your stuff does not control you.In addition, I explain the three key reasons you feel a deep connection to items. By exploring the stories and your emotions, you'll be in a better position to make space for your future life ahead. Press play to learn more and begin embracing a new way of thinking about what you own and how you view your living spaces.RESOURCE:Ready to declutter but not sure where to take items?Download my Decluttering Resources Quick Guide + join my email community.FEATURED ON THE SHOW:Come say hello on Instagram Follow me on Facebook See what I’m up to on LinkedIn Join my community at https://www.apleasantsolution.com/ Blog Post: You Are Not Your StuffLIKE THIS EPISODE?I invite you to share, rate, review and follow my show.
