I am often asked…

What if I’m not ready to let go of everything?

That’s okay! My goal is not for you to live in a cold, harsh home with no comforts or joy! The “all-or-nothing” method is not in alignment with my personal style. For me, letting go has been a process of learning “it’s okay” to live with less. That said, there will be no pressure to let go of everything, but we will work on “moving the needle”. This means, I’ll meet you where you’re at! That’s why I offer projects as small as the mini session. Once you test the waters of minimalism and feel the freedom for yourself, you’ll be itching for more! Trust me!

What happens to the items I want to let go of?

First, it’s important to know our goal is to curate what we’re keeping. You should feel excited about what you’ve chosen to keep in your home! When we think about the decluttering process in this way, it will feel easier to be decisive on the items you’re choosing to let go of. When we clarify what you want, it’s easier to identify what you don’t want.

For these items, I take them to the donation center (typically the arc Thrift Store or Goodwill), or you can take the items yourself. If you take the items yourself, you’ll experience the fullness of letting go, and it’ll make your “decluttering muscles” that much stronger. I understand the convenience of me taking the items to the donation center on your behalf, however, so if you wish I’m happy to bring them to the donation center! Whatever will be best for you.

I do not offer trash removal services or large item removal, however.

You’ll make the decision on what you would like to keep, and let go of.

For those with a particularly difficult time letting go, we discuss a middle ground for items that you’re unsure about. We’ll move these to a separate area of your house and at a set date, you’ll make a final decision on these items.

Do I have to be there, can you declutter for me?

Being a self-coined “Decluttering Coach” means I motivate, educate, and support individuals to declutter their homes. Working together means we’re in the same space, at the same time! It’s kind of like cardio, more fun to do with someone else, and the only way to get better…is to do it! It’s also part of the fun and enjoyment of doing this process with someone knowledgeable in this field of “letting go”.

Plus, my hope is that through our time together, you’ll learn valuable and repeatable skills that you can apply to other areas of your home, making coaching a more sustainable process, rather than just putting your things into fancy bins.

What about organizing?

While it’s fun to organize and bring order to the chaos, my hope for you and your home is to experience life with less. Joshua Becker said, “You don’t need more space. You need less stuff.” Simply put, organizing is inherently easier when you have less to organize.

That said, if you have extra bins and organizing containers at home, we can spend a brief period of our remaining time together making your newly decluttered space more functional! Or you may wish to spend our time together purely learning decluttering techniques, and you can organize on your own at a later time.

Do I need a “Decluttering Coach”?

The short answer is, no. You absolutely can declutter on your own. My question for you is, how many times have you tried to declutter on your own, only to find in a few weeks or months that space is messy again and full to the brim? Or, how many times have you started to declutter, only to get side-tracked and then you’re left with piles around your house that stick around for a few weeks?

The longer answer is — and here’s the real benefit of having a Decluttering Coach walk alongside you — it’s SO much easier to declutter with a coach who can encourage you along the way, and can help you in your decision-making process!

Decision fatigue sets in sometimes midway through, and a coach like me can help you push through to project completion. We are also often attached to our belongings and this attachment can obscure what we know in our hearts. It can be hard to know if it’s truly time to let go of something, or maybe it needs to be moved to another area where it can truly be used and valued. Decluttering is hard work to do alone, and a decluttering coach can walk with you in the process to make it enjoyable and sustainable.

What are your service areas?

The Northwest & Denver Metro areas - Westminster, Broomfield, Arvada, Superior, Lafayette, Louisville, Golden, Boulder, Thornton, Denver, Central Park, and Wheatridge. If you’re outside of this area and interested in my services, email me and I  may have some flexibility!

What session or package is right for me?

You’re wondering, how do I know how much time I’ll need?

The choice in session or package is more dependent on your desired level of support and how much of your home you’re wanting to transform, rather than the number of hours listed.

Mini Sessions are great for a busy mom who wants to get started decluttering, and realize quick wins in a small section of her home.

Reset Sessions are perfect for families, ready to experience peace and calm at home. This is most helpful for spaces that feel overwhelming, or if we need more time together to get deeper.

The Peaceful Home Package is right for the person who wants to see their home fully refreshed and revived. This package involves the most ongoing support and lasting change.

To answer this question, let’s consider this instead - how much support do I need in my own decluttering journey, and what do I have time for in this current season? This answer may change over time, and that’s perfectly okay! I’d love to support you through it all!
