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.
