Identity Clutter: Stuff That Affects Who We Are or Want to Be

Online

Sometimes our emotions about certain stuff get muddled up with our sense of who we used to be, who we are, or who we hope to be someday. This “identity clutter” can be anything we’re hanging onto that no longer supports the life we really want to be living. In episode #221 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, discusses sources of identity clutter and offers strategies for letting go of stuff without damaging our sense of self.

We prepared a survey to learn about our audience’s experiences related to this episode’s topic. To answer the survey, please see Survey #221: Exploring the Boundary Between Self and Stuff.

The Clutter Fairy Weekly is a live webcast designed to help you clear your clutter and make space in your home and your life for more of what you love. We meet Tuesdays at noon (U.S. Central Time) to answer your decluttering questions and to share organizing tools and techniques, success stories and “ah-hah!” moments, seasonal suggestions, and timeless tips.
