Thank you so much for watching! I'm so grateful for of your support - it means more than you know! - Dawn

Me breaking up with my things… “ it’s not me, it’s you” 😂💔✌🏻

Several weeks ago we went through Hurricane Milton and while the house was a mess post-storm, once things settled a bit, it was so easy to retidy and get back into my habits. The sense of calm that having a decluttered, tidy home gives me is priceless. It absolutely does help with mental health.

I love the trick of making things easy to put away! My husband would get irritated if I got rid of certain kitchen utensils (even if they’re hardly ever used and totally unnecessary in my book), so I have our “working” utensil drawer, which is nice and clear and easy to see, grab, and put away what is needed most often. The other things, I keep in the bottom drawer so I don’t have to look at it or work around it. That drawer is more of a mess, but if he or someone wants one of those things, they know where to find it! 😅

"We aren't rehoming cats here" hahahaa that got me rollin' lol this was seriously such a great video and SUPER motivating! The photos of your home are so inspiring.

Hello Dawn,
I love the fact that you started right away. No introduction. The title says it all. I agree with everything you said.

[getliftedup]

You and I are very similar! I was a very messy person growing up. It created difficulties in my career and marriage. One night, I cried out to the Lord to rewire my brain to think like an organized person (for, He made it). The next day, all of these strategies of what to do, when, in what order, and with efficiency came pouring into my mind, like never before. Today, I’m a professional educator with an Undergraduate Degree, Master’s Degree, and I just got certified as a Professional Organizational Specialist, to help others who struggle just as I did. If anyone feels stuck today, please be encouraged and know what God WANTS to do with your life! Having Freedom for what MATTERS is the best!!! Stay encouraged!!!

You turned me into a minimalist a year ago and I will never go back now! My life and house is so much less chaotic and it never takes me longer than 15 mins to tidy up my house on any given day. Considering I have two toddlers I’m pretty happy with this! Thanks so much!

We remodeled upstairs and the flooring workers finished today. We had to box everything up and move it downstairs or to a pod. We started moving back upstairs this afternoon and we're going thru it all again and decluttering again. I have several boxes to donate and several bags of trash already. I'm so excited that we're actually simplifying and getting it done!!

[kalynab]

You have the best energy and advice, I always look forward to your videos!

❤ Shouting from the rooftop that truly LESS INVENTORY =MORE PEACE! Thank you Dawn (and Cas) for all your research, humor, and empathy. I was Tidy✅ Organized ✅ but still totally stressed 😩 Followed you, minimized more and more, and voila! Freedom! Peace! Decreased therapy! More joy! Hallelujah 🎉

[tomikotomihewitt]

This is a really great one! I don’t know how you continue to come up with new ideas.

[swtstlr]

I ❤ you Dawn! God put your videos on my feed and changed my life

[stacyritter]

Been a viewer for years!!! May not have decluttered my whole I certainly have learned to ask myself the right questions ....I will always be a work in progress. I don't want my child to deal with it when I'm gone!!!

[arealdonut]

Under "make it easy to put away, " I stopped folding my toddler children's clothes - their drawers have dividers and each article goes into a section by type so it's organized, but I'm not agonizing about folding a whole basket of toddler laundry when my tiny humans mostly just tear through their drawers without a care. Now it takes 5 minutes to put their laundry away.

[our-stRongfamily]

Thank you so much for this video. I was able to give away some things in my kitchen that I was holding onto, for guilt reasons, this was the push to let go of things that brought up painful memories.

[fancynancy]

I love that you use the term "inventory". Btw, you look great today :)

[magsstewart]

You’re really helping me. I’m a “prepper” in the sense that I keep a large backstock of food & other items. I haven’t stopped doing that, and likely never will, but I am so much more judicious now in what I will allow into my home, and it must have a place. Everywhere except my pantry and garage look like I’m a minimalist. I’m working on the garage. The pantry is organized, and nothing close to minimal, lol! I feel so much better, and my house runs so much more smoothly, with so much less stuff. ❤

[lucystrider]

Yes, the dishes at night. It is such a pleasure in the morning to walk into a clean kitchen! It has also seemed to inspire people besides me to cook. So worth it, I didn't realze it for years!

[kakylong]

It's just Hubby & I, so we don't go through enough clothes or dishes to do a load every day. My Hubby had open heart surgery a month ago & I have been keeping up on the house almost daily. I did let it go for a couple of days & I was aggregated for doing that to myself. I was able to clean it all up fairly quickly when it used to take me days. That felt good. Thank you, Dawn, for all your videos. 😊
