The Clutter Fairy Weekly #207

How Much Lining Does an Empty Nest Need? and Other Good Questions

April 11, 2024/0 Comments/in Media appearances, Podcasts, The Clutter Fairy Weekly, YouTube videos /by Todd Mahloch

An audience member asked, “How much should you keep for your ‘little birdies’ while they’re testing their wings?” There are difficult decisions and challenges to face as you transition from a full house to an empty nest. In episode #207 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, discusses not-quite-empty nests, Earth Day organizing, and other questions and short topics suggested by our viewers and listeners.

Weekly Tittle

The Weekly Tittle is an exercise designed to focus your attention on a specific space, aspect, or challenge of decluttering and organizing your home. We assign a new tittle in each webcast/podcast, then check on your progress the following week.

Cherish the Earth

This week’s assignment is to make a plan or take an action in recognition of Earth Day:

  • Identify an area of your life in which you might be able to reduce your overall consumption, reduce your consumption of plastic items (or items packaged in excessive plastic), recycle more effectively, use things more completely, donate conscientiously, upcycle waste, or otherwise get a longer life out of the stuff that you choose to own.
  • Write a resolution or affirmation about the change you plan to make.
  • Take at least one action this week to fulfill or move forward with your Earth Day commitment.

For the full discussion of this week’s tittle, watch the Weekly Tittle segment on YouTube.
