What comes first - decluttering or the time and energy to declutter?

One of the biggest roadblocks to a clutter-free home is the belief that you need to find time to declutter first. But here’s the truth: decluttering comes first.

Waiting for the “perfect time” to declutter keeps you stuck. Life is busy, and if you keep waiting for a big chunk of free time, you’ll never start. Instead, start small and take action now—even if it’s just five minutes at a time.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why waiting for the “right time” to declutter keeps you stuck
• How to fit decluttering into your daily life, no matter how busy you are
• The power of starting small (and why tiny wins add up to big progress)
• How decluttering frees up more time in the long run
• Simple strategies to take action today—even with a packed schedule
