Out with the Old: Setting an Expiration Date on Clutter (Meetup)

At the January 2016 meeting of the Houston Clutter Coaching Meetup, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy, will examine how our stuff can anchor us to unproductive habits instead of supporting our ever-evolving lives.
