Forgotten, But Not Gone: Identify and Clear “Outdated Clutter”—postponed

Online

An audience member recently asked, “Is it time to let the Rolodex roll away?” Good question! Why do we keep so many things in our spaces long after they’ve outlived their usefulness or relevance? In episode #219 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, explores the sources and causes of “outdated clutter”—stuff that’s overstayed its welcome but still takes up valuable space in our homes.

There will be no episode of The Clutter Fairy Weekly this week because Gayle is without power in the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl. We’ll be back next week!

If you haven’t already done so, you have an extra week take our survey related to this topic.
