Share some firefighter info that you are learning. Especially practical home info sigh as what to do if home catches fire, cooking fire, suspect a gas leak, CPR, choking emergencies.
Share more info about your private training sessions and the physical mental and emotional benefits of exercise. Including dopamine from exercising for ADHD.
Excellent idea... That also could piggyback onto how people might've changed things, if they regret getting rid of anything, etc; you know those pesky questions we all sometimes ask ourselves that may even keep us from starting or from tossing something in the 1st place!! It's kinda like writers block, but decluttering block when either overwhelmed or afraid to pull the trigger from fear of needing something later. IDK 🤷🏼♀️ maybe that's crazy, but it could help some people...
I freakin' love you!! My house is falling apart, my backyard is flooding, I may have cancer... let me become a firefighter and write my next book! Excuse me, like, WHATTTTTT?! I love your energy and your will to keep going no matter what comes your way. Also, I am so sorry for your loss regarding your grandmother. May God continue to bless you and your family. You taught me a wonderful lesson today, keep going NO MATTER WHAT!
Congratulations on becoming a firefighter!! You are teaching us that no matter your age you can achieve anything. My late mother-in-law got her Masters at 72 while she was fighting cancer, taking care of my father-in-law who has Alzheimer's and Dementia, and working full-time.
You have so many balls in the air right now. Those of us who have been following you for years will understand if you post less frequently. Good for you for pursuing your dreams! All best wishes...🦋
How about "30 days of quick summer declutters". Maybe its a junk drawer, glove box, car trunk, safe deposit box, pet drawer, utensil drawer, medicine cabinet, jewelry box, night stand, crawl space, desk drawer, coffee table storage, back porch shelf unit, pool containers, tool box, garden supply cabinet or table, outdoor games/toys, etc.... Something quick and easy but it makes you feel accomplished. Congrats on your firefighting gig! You can do it!
I love you, please don’t go to that same dermatologist if he misdiagnosed your grandmother. Please find a better one. Congratulations on becoming fire fighter Cass!! You rock! 🎉
Hi, Cassandra. Yes please don't go to the same dermatologist your grandmother went to 😢may she rest in peace. Was it the grandmother you helped in her beautiful condo??
I totally agree. If you can go to a different doctor please do. I'd be so afraid to see that doctor knowing that he misdiagnosed your grandmother. I'd be spitting mad at him and probably wouldn't be very nice to him.
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your grandmother. I am very sorry about all you are going through. May you receive swift healing, and help in every way.
Find a dermatologist who does MOHS excisions. They will take off the area layer by layer and examine it under a microscope to get clear margins. Then they will repair the surgery site. Very precise.
Yes absolutely, I have had Mohs done several times at University of Michigan Hospital. I have had metastatic melanoma too! Skin cancer is definitely nothing to ignore.
Congratulations! Coincidentally, my retired firefighter fella says one of the worst things to encounter inside a burning house is piles of stuff that you have to fight your way over, around, or through in order to fight the flames or make a rescue.
VIDEO SUGGESTIONS: (for those of us that really love your organizing content) back to declutterring & organizing SMALL household spaces such as cabinets, drawers, etc … the “one small space at a time” & “ when you don’t have much time for organizing” videos are helpful 👍
I would like to see more organizing videos too, especially ones like how to work with your bug style when you don't have the right setup. Ex. Cricket and open shelves. You're such an inspiration!
Cas - CONGRATULATIONS!!!! 👩🏼🚒🧯📛 I heard you say "I'll do better tomorrow" - so I'll remind you of your own advice to us: you're putting a lot of pressure on tomorrow's self! Baby steps. 1 ounce more protein. One more cup of water. One extra veggie serving. Whatever tiny step it us - that counts as better! There's no such thing as perfect. 🤗 You're so inspiring!!!
Cas, I’m sorry to hear about your grandmother. My sympathies to your family. Congrats on the fire fighting gig! You really do have a lot on your plate. We will understand if you cut back on your video schedule. We will, of course, miss you. I wish I could find an ADD program like you are in for my granddaughter.
I actually needed to hear your message, so thank you! I can do one more cup of water and one more veggie serving tomorrow. That isn’t so overwhelming. ❤
Cas!!! I went back to school in my 50’s and got 100% and gave the commencement speech to over 6,000 people 🤣🤣🤣 OMG!!! The things we can accomplish when we’re truly happy and put the past behind us!!! ❤ love you so much! So excited for you!!!!!
Nate Berkus used to do a segment on his show where people submitted a photo of a problem area in their home along with a description of the issues. He then would give suggestions based on the email and photo. That might be fun to see you do from an organization perspective.
I’m very sorry for your loss! Please see a different doctor, that’s very concerning. Thank you for letting us into your world. Praying burnout stays away and that you can quickly transition to some quieter times. You’re an inspiration!
uh, Cas-container concept applies to the 24 hours in a day too. You’re making me tired just watching you!!! A time management and priority setting video could help us all 😂
Cas, i am so proud of you, both that you did go take care of your health even though beeing scared of the outcome, and just as much for becoming a firefighter. I wish you the best of luck.
I can't wait for your first video where you re-organize the fire truck, hahaha. Welcome to the "brotherhood" from a 15-year firefighter! Take care of yourself! Stress will happen. You'll never be alone.
When we got my son his dirt bike, he was afraid of it at first too. He got comfortable on his own terms and then started to turn the front yard into a dirt bike track. Milo will love it.
please take time for *you.* we are *not* a priority for you. we enjoy what you share, but FAMILY FIRST. take care, Cas ... thanks for all you do for us!
I can't believe how much those beautiful kids have grown. I've been a subscriber since you were running the day care. You're doing great! And Joe, so supportive. What a blessing.
Here's an idea: "getting unstuck" or "tough spot spotlight"-themed "one-hour better" videos of virtual consultations where you help someone declutter and/or organize for just an hour or so, focusing on a location or category of stuff that's especially tricky (a deceased loved one's items, a deep corner kitchen cabinet, clothes that don't fit but you still love). Dana does these sometimes, and they're really compelling from a viewer's perspective, but a lot easier for the creator, I imagine. Your combination of compassion and tough love and humour plus experience adapting solutions to fit someone's organizing style would bring so much to this kind of format, not to mention you'd be helping people directly and indirectly!
Honestly, I love listening to you talk. Whether you're sharing bits of advice or life updates or the "thank you so much, guys, for those of you who have stayed til the end" parts of your videos. You have a lot going on, and I enjoy whatever you choose to share. Congratulations on your latest success! Wishing you all the best!
If you need to step back or slow down on video content and the podcast, we can wait. You are working on some incredible projects in the next few months. RUclips can wait. It’s summer break. Schedules change. Take care of yourself. ❤
I’m so sorry for the loss of your grandmother 💕. I also want to say don’t go back to the same doctor who misdiagnosed her! That’s crazy pants! And congrats on becoming a firefighter - amazing. Idea for you - repurpose some of your old content - put new videos together of themes eg kitchen decluttering, decorating, paperwork etc. Go Cass!,
Idea. Maybe people could submit images of spaces they need help with and you could on the fly, make suggestions, recommendations. Quick easy video. Not much prep involved other than bringing up the photos.
Leak detection specialists is probably who you need to fix the water issues and not a plumber. If you choose to do this, please make sure that they have specialist equipment and training. Congratulations precious Cass!!! You are helping complete strangers in so many ways. What an amazing accomplishment!!! I am so sad though, about what's happening to your home. May things go well on that front, very soon.
Thank you for being venerable with us. I've had a really hard week, including having my own holes in the ceiling and it's comforting to know I'm not the only one
I am a retired volunteer firefighter. My uniform was kept at the fire house. Just an FYI, if yours is not kept at home, turn your boots upside down to dump the spiders out. No joke. Us girls have got to watch out for each other. You should do the EMT class, it was the most fun job I ever had!! You are amazing ❤
Video Suggestion: Bite size projects. Short videos (so you can be quick and not take much time out of your current life marathon) help us refresh in how to find 5/ 10 or 15 minutes projects - pick a project and knock it out. (Just one drawer makes a difference). Tackle the shoes in the house - keep, put away, give away (lets face it the chances of getting a shoe repaired is pretty slim). One thing I find that we never seem to see is where and how people store their cleaning supplies ... vacuum, mop, rags, dust wands, how many cleaning products do we need and for what they are best suited for... I am so proud of you - firefighter, wife, mom, first responder, writer, editor, leader in the industry of all things you get involved in... your accomplishments are bottomless.
My condolences for the loss of your grandmother Cass. And congratulations on the firefighter position. You will find a balance in all your endeavors and know that we appreciate all that you have done for this community! Keep us updated as you can, and live your best life!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Amazing!!! I used to be a burn unit nurse and we saw ourselves as community partners with the local firefighters. We did fundraisers for them, they donated patient care items to our unit; on rare occasions they were our patients, too, and we always knew they could one day be our rescuers, just as they often had been for our patients. Firefighters are always heroes! Be safe and be proud!
So sorry for the loss of your grandmother. Congratulations on becoming a firefighter! I hope your daughter's leg is okay! My husband is battling throat cancer. Right now, It's a full time job tube feeding, keeping up with his meds and chemo and radiation appointments. So my household organization projects are on hold. Last night he spent the night in the hospital getting blood transfusions. I actually got to take a shower and sleep 7 hours! I really enjoyed just seeing your life update. It made me smile.❤
I love, love, love your "clean with me" videos. So just take us along as you do chores. You talk to yourself as you clean and you are hilarious in the best way! I fold laundry or clean along with you.
Please do one about your robot vacuum cleaners, how you actually use those, and do you have to prepare for that, how often do you do what they don’t touch etc
I'm a late in life diagnosed adhder and your video have helped a lot . Maybe you could do a video on how your able to do all the amazing stuff you have going on right now cause I suffer from overwhelme a lot and it limits the things I want to do.
This is so awesome… 👏🏽 my husband is finishing his last semester of Firefighting school… so i had to share this video with him lol he showed our kids how to put on his bunker gear … he loved seeing this ❤
Ideas - stuff you do anyway…your end-of-day whole house 5 min pick up routine. Your daily picking out wardrobe routine. Your mail sort routine. Your bathroom cleaning routine. Your kitchen food prep and clean up routine, with emphasis on where your cooking utensils, mixing bowls, cutting board, and pots and pans are stored. Hints on finding and deleting junk emails and spam. Deepest sympathy of loss of your grandmother.
Hey- even recycling ♻️ some of those incredible golden oldies that quite possibly many followers never got the chance to watch from years and years ago. They still apply…. Pick some favorite clean outs and replay with a quick comment before and/or after♥️
I struggle with getting things done. Even writing them down, I get overwhelmed with everything I need to do... not to mention that I have to take a shower, brush my teeth, all the bathroom activities, and get dressed for the day! It's all a very slow process for me. So to see all the things you're involved with, I don't understand how you or anyone have time to manage ALL the things plus be a mom and wife! I love your videos and always watch til the end and then I don't have time to do anything else while I'm engaged in your videos 😅 but I want to do better! And also have better time management and know it's OK not to get everything done in one day.
I'm sorry for the loss of your grandmother 😢 I would be cautious trusting them for your nose, personally, maybe a second opinion just to make sure they got it all? As for video requests, I would actually really enjoy a body doubling video where you just have the camera on while you're cleaning or doing something you were already going to do. Hopefully would involve less editing as well. But if you need a break from posting we're totally cool with that as well! Take care Cas! 💜
WOOHOO! What an accomplishment! As for video ideas - "Day in the Life" is always fun with you. An update on the garage kitty would be neat, too. (And omg your Bridgerton comment 🤣)
As a fellow former volunteer emt/ firefighter, I’m excited for your journey! As far as future video suggestions- maybe a quick list of links to your favorite organizing/ decluttering past videos with just a few quick comments on why you think they still hold up and maybe what you would do differently
Cass - watching one of your videos a couple of years ago is what finally convinced me to go ahead with my own weight loss surgery. Thank you!!! Thank you for sharing your story. Best decision I ever made. How you speak about the relief of just not having to think about it, and the stupid food noises. It is just such a relief.
W O W !!! YES. CRAZYPANTS! My entire body clenched when I saw that dirt bike. I’m overly cautious and am glad no one was severely injured. 😱 Sounds like you need to declutter your activities.😆 Sorry to hear about the loss of your grandma. Mine passed decades ago and I still feel the loss. 💞
Congratulations 🎉 keep up the hard work Cas!! I’ve been a firefighter for 23yrs just some advice, if you use your bunker gear in a fire 🔥 do not bring it home. Cancer prevention is a big thing in our department and our gear has cancerous materials. Keep up with the physical training and your studies 🫶🏽🥰💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Cass, you are a joy to watch! You talking about your health problems makes me realise that my problems are pretty normal and life hasnt picked on me deliberately! Weight wise you look great and yeah there was a time when you were too thin! It doesnt matter what you talk about or do on video its always great to see you
You did IT!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Co Gratulation!❤❤❤❤ This video was so ADHD!!!😂😂😂😂😂 And this and that and this and that... I'm so happy, you did something with your nose. We need you!
content that has been helpful/ content i would enjoy seeing: - going back to spaces that have been organized/decluttered and reorganizing/decluttering - how to utilize weird spaces in the home - organizing large collections for adults (books, vinyl, toys, etc.) - 1 day in the life of regular decluttering for upkeep - organizing high traffic spaces for best use - styling/organizing for welcoming/happy spaces
First off, never heard of Baby reindeer but you know I. Gonna have to see it now. CONGRATULATIONS on the volunteer firefighter gig. AWESOME. You are an absolute inspiration. We will be here when you get back. Luv ya!❤🇦🇺
YAY, Congratulations!! You did it!! I’m so proud of you. This episode of Cas.. was beneficial to me right now. You are so encouraging and I love your content. Heath can be so scary, please stay on these things and also take care of YOU!
On the topic of gardening and ADHD - plant some herbs that you use in a lot of recipes! I always used to buy those small packets of herbs at the grocery store and I’d forget about them in the fridge. Now, I have my fresh herbs growing in the garden, so I don’t have to worry about them going bad. 🙂
There was a LOT in this vid. Now, congratulations to you and condolences to you as well. You are pretty amazing, you have the energy of a toddler. Good job!!
Congratulations on reaching the next stage in your firefighter journey! So sorry about the loss of your grandmother. I am very happy you had the skin cancer addressed. Looking forward to the videos of decluttering your Mom's house.
Hi Super Cas! I have a suggestion. A lot of people have problem areas of their homes. Could people send in a photo and you suggest ideas for the area. Rather than going and doing it? People watching could send in or try out the idea in their home. This sounds not so wonderful, but I thought I'd share. I'm in Australia so getting help is never going to be possible. Especially because I live in a mid renovation home. It's been 7 years and we're halfway 😢. But I love the idea of someone helping with stuck areas, because most of us have an area, that just sits wrong with us and joins the silent to do list. Love you xx
congratulations to you, be proud of yourself🥰 scary story of someone who had brand new house built. slowly but sure, all pipes began to leak one behind the other. The pumping contractor used D grade = drain only grade copper pipes all through the blooming house. Fingers crossed that didn't happen to yourself and family. Enjoy the Fire Fighting course, speaking as someone who was in a fire as a kid, Fire Fighters rock , such important people.
I enjoy the body doubling videos where you are cleaning or decluttering a space in your home. Helps me to get up and get something done. Love to see more of those! ❤
Start with decluttering papers, if you can, even just a couple a day. It will make a difference over time. I think papers are the most difficult for family to get through in the future. God bless you.
CONGRATULATIONS on all your accomplishments! WOW!! It is ok to take a moment for yourself. We will miss your videos but if you must take a break from filming please do. Once you have time😅 rested and watched a few movies, come back to us 😊
Amazing work and I am so sorry for your loss. Grandparents are so special. Ideas for videos - digital organization. Pictures and files etc? Another idea- shared workspace organization.
Cass, so proud of you. You are my fearless friend. Continue with your capers. When you come up for air, let us know what you’re doing. Take as much time as you need. ❤️2U& yours
Ideas: 1. ADHD content 2. Time management 3. How to get the family involved in helping around the house, who does what 4. What things to do yourself, and when to hire help (especially when you have ADHD) 5. Dealing with the shame of being overwhelmed with all the things and how to take baby steps forward 6. The first things to go when you’re busy and stressed (I’m great at the idea part, just not the execution so much 😂).
Dang, I've been following for awhile now, actually prior to your surgery. Can't believe it's been 5 years now. I love your energy in this video. You seem so excited and alive. It's inspiring.
You definitely gave me inspiration to not count myself as being too old (I am 34 with a toddler so I counted myself out of a lot of things). Video ideas....help others at their houses but don't make it a big thing. It doesn't need dramatic before and after. It's nice seeing you help others make small progress. And I am thinking that wouldn't require days and weeks of prep work.
Give yourself grace! This is a busy season of life, but it will slow down, and if something does not work out for you, you will know what to do. If you have miss so videos, we can always watch the old ones for a while. Congratulations on being a fire fighter! You can do it!
Video suggestions: organizing oddly shaped closets and pantries (e.g., angled walls, corner shelving, what were they thinking when they built this monstrosity of a space?!). Also, organizing and storing seasonal items like pool or gardening items only used in summer 😊
Congratulations, Cas. A full itinerary is only good for a short while, so please consider your long-term health. I would live a time management video. I'm like you in respect of needing something to do constantly. My mind is rarely quiet. ❤
I wish I could get up and do something productive like go back to nursing but I have stage four cancer and I’m disabled now. But I was a high school dropout and I went back to school in my 30’s and 40’s and got a masters degree in nursing education and did some great things in that field. So yes!!! People should do what they want to do with their lives before it’s too late!!! I’m 64 now and wish I could do more still! You are doing great Cas!!!

VIDEO IDEA: revisiting places you organized in the past seeing what stayed organized and what didn't
Who’s going to enjoy the dirt bike more? Milo or Joe?
@@rosahinson2166silly. It’ll be Cas’s 🫢😂😂😂
Excellent idea...
That also could piggyback onto how people might've changed things, if they regret getting rid of anything, etc; you know those pesky questions we all sometimes ask ourselves that may even keep us from starting or from tossing something in the 1st place!!
It's kinda like writers block, but decluttering block when either overwhelmed or afraid to pull the trigger from fear of needing something later.
IDK 🤷🏼♀️ maybe that's crazy, but it could help some people...
this please
Yes, I would love to see how people are doing now with their spaces.
I freakin' love you!! My house is falling apart, my backyard is flooding, I may have cancer... let me become a firefighter and write my next book! Excuse me, like, WHATTTTTT?! I love your energy and your will to keep going no matter what comes your way. Also, I am so sorry for your loss regarding your grandmother. May God continue to bless you and your family. You taught me a wonderful lesson today, keep going NO MATTER WHAT!
Best comment and my thoughts exactly! She's is amazing and so inspiring!
You forgot about the cat
Congratulations on becoming a firefighter!! You are teaching us that no matter your age you can achieve anything. My late mother-in-law got her Masters at 72 while she was fighting cancer, taking care of my father-in-law who has Alzheimer's and Dementia, and working full-time.
Wow, she sounds like she was amazing. What a role model!
@@serenakoleno9338 she was. She was my best friend. We talked daily.
You have so many balls in the air right now. Those of us who have been following you for years will understand if you post less frequently. Good for you for pursuing your dreams! All best wishes...🦋
Yes. This. Cass if you need to take a break from making videos we will be waiting for you to come back. ❤
How about "30 days of quick summer declutters". Maybe its a junk drawer, glove box, car trunk, safe deposit box, pet drawer, utensil drawer, medicine cabinet, jewelry box, night stand, crawl space, desk drawer, coffee table storage, back porch shelf unit, pool containers, tool box, garden supply cabinet or table, outdoor games/toys, etc.... Something quick and easy but it makes you feel accomplished. Congrats on your firefighting gig! You can do it!
Love this idea!
I want to do this!! Great idea!!
This! Also small garden shed
I love you, please don’t go to that same dermatologist if he misdiagnosed your grandmother. Please find a better one. Congratulations on becoming fire fighter Cass!! You rock! 🎉
Exactly! Please, get a second opinion.
I 1000% agree. However, I believe they have national healthcare and may have to go to whoever the government says you’re going to.
I totally agree!
Hi, Cassandra. Yes please don't go to the same dermatologist your grandmother went to 😢may she rest in peace. Was it the grandmother you helped in her beautiful condo??
I totally agree. If you can go to a different doctor please do. I'd be so afraid to see that doctor knowing that he misdiagnosed your grandmother. I'd be spitting mad at him and probably wouldn't be very nice to him.
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your grandmother. I am very sorry about all you are going through. May you receive swift healing, and help in every way.
Ideas for content would be to film getting your mom's house ready to sell. You are amazing superwoman!
Find a dermatologist who does MOHS excisions. They will take off the area layer by layer and examine it under a microscope to get clear margins. Then they will repair the surgery site. Very precise.
Yes to this!
Dermatologist for sure, a second opinion or different doc
Yes absolutely, I have had Mohs done several times at University of Michigan Hospital. I have had metastatic melanoma too! Skin cancer is definitely nothing to ignore.
Yes, my mom has had Mohs Micrographic Surgery twice in her face for basal cell carcinoma. It’s practically invisible now!
Absolutely go to a Dermatologist who does MOHS !!
Congratulations! Coincidentally, my retired firefighter fella says one of the worst things to encounter inside a burning house is piles of stuff that you have to fight your way over, around, or through in order to fight the flames or make a rescue.
Cas's worlds collide. Saving lifes through decluttering so she can literally get into their houses and save lives!
Wow!😮
VIDEO SUGGESTIONS: (for those of us that really love your organizing content) back to declutterring & organizing SMALL household spaces such as cabinets, drawers, etc … the “one small space at a time” & “ when you don’t have much time for organizing” videos are helpful 👍
Great idea!!
@@ClutterbugCas: Make a ponytail, lift the ponytail up and tuck it under the hair of the back of your scalp. Quick and perfect for helmets
Helpful hints always help me. Life hacks. I live in a SMALL apartment and love hacks to make things not look so cluttered please help Cas 🤗
I agree!
I would like to see more organizing videos too, especially ones like how to work with your bug style when you don't have the right setup. Ex. Cricket and open shelves. You're such an inspiration!
Make sure you and Joe take time for each other with your crazy, busy life!!
Always!
Cas - CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
👩🏼🚒🧯📛
I heard you say "I'll do better tomorrow" - so I'll remind you of your own advice to us: you're putting a lot of pressure on tomorrow's self! Baby steps. 1 ounce more protein. One more cup of water. One extra veggie serving. Whatever tiny step it us - that counts as better! There's no such thing as perfect. 🤗 You're so inspiring!!!
Yes this!
Cas, I’m sorry to hear about your grandmother. My sympathies to your family. Congrats on the fire fighting gig! You really do have a lot on your plate. We will understand if you cut back on your video schedule. We will, of course, miss you. I wish I could find an ADD program like you are in for my granddaughter.
I actually needed to hear your message, so thank you! I can do one more cup of water and one more veggie serving tomorrow. That isn’t so overwhelming. ❤
Yes! Second that! 😊😊
Suggestion! A Day in the Life series. We'd LOVE THAT!
To say you're busy is an understatement. I need a nap after your video! 😂
I was listening like "what the entire heck!" and "But why???" lol
Yes, even watching this made me overwhelmed 😅 I'm rooting for you CAS but damn, be careful, this sounds like a lot ❤
Cas!!! I went back to school in my 50’s and got 100% and gave the commencement speech to over 6,000 people 🤣🤣🤣 OMG!!! The things we can accomplish when we’re truly happy and put the past behind us!!! ❤ love you so much! So excited for you!!!!!

Never a dull moment at your house.
You cleaning while wearing the uniform absolutely killed me 🤣 Congrats!! That’s so awesome, it’s great to see someone work so hard and achieve!!
I’m very sorry for your loss! Please see a different doctor, that’s very concerning. Thank you for letting us into your world. Praying burnout stays away and that you can quickly transition to some quieter times. You’re an inspiration!
uh, Cas-container concept applies to the 24 hours in a day too. You’re making me tired just watching you!!!

When we got my son his dirt bike, he was afraid of it at first too. He got comfortable on his own terms and then started to turn the front yard into a dirt bike track. Milo will love it.
Thanks for sharing!
When you need water for the fire truck. They can come around to your garden to fill up & recycle water
Thank you for all the great help and always making me smile and chuckle! Wishing you and your family the very best … 🥰❤️🌈~Angela
please take time for *you.*
we are *not* a priority for you.

thanks for all you do for us!
I can't believe how much those beautiful kids have grown. I've been a subscriber since you were running the day care. You're doing great! And Joe, so supportive. What a blessing.
Clean with me's when you're talking through things are good for me. They keep me company while I'm cleaning.
Congratulations! My 17 year old daughter is a firefighter, she absolutely loves it!
Here's an idea: "getting unstuck" or "tough spot spotlight"-themed "one-hour better" videos of virtual consultations where you help someone declutter and/or organize for just an hour or so, focusing on a location or category of stuff that's especially tricky (a deceased loved one's items, a deep corner kitchen cabinet, clothes that don't fit but you still love).

I ❤ Dana's "One Hour Better" videos! I'd watch you doing your virtual coaching again!🎉
Thank you for sharing. I really appreciate your honesty and openness. This is what the world needs, not fake perfection.
Honestly, I love listening to you talk. Whether you're sharing bits of advice or life updates or the "thank you so much, guys, for those of you who have stayed til the end" parts of your videos.

You always make me laugh with your stories at the end of your videos.😂😂😅😂
Just watching you declutter/clean helps so much. When I’m not motivated I go to your old video of your evening routine and I’m off doing mine.
Everyone: I should get in shape, maybe I’ll get a gym membership
Cas: I should get in shape, let me become a firefighter
😂😅❤️
Thank you for being venerable with us. I've had a really hard week, including having my own holes in the ceiling and it's comforting to know I'm not the only one
I love badass decluttering Cas who kicks my butt into doing stuff 😆 I will always watch more of those videos!
She charges up my batteries when I'm unmotivated. Great gal!
YES!!! I Love those !
I am a retired volunteer firefighter. My uniform was kept at the fire house. Just an FYI, if yours is not kept at home, turn your boots upside down to dump the spiders out. No joke. Us girls have got to watch out for each other. You should do the EMT class, it was the most fun job I ever had!! You are amazing ❤
Video Suggestion: Bite size projects. Short videos (so you can be quick and not take much time out of your current life marathon) help us refresh in how to find 5/ 10 or 15 minutes projects - pick a project and knock it out. (Just one drawer makes a difference). Tackle the shoes in the house - keep, put away, give away (lets face it the chances of getting a shoe repaired is pretty slim). One thing I find that we never seem to see is where and how people store their cleaning supplies ... vacuum, mop, rags, dust wands, how many cleaning products do we need and for what they are best suited for... I am so proud of you - firefighter, wife, mom, first responder, writer, editor, leader in the industry of all things you get involved in... your accomplishments are bottomless.
I love this idea. 15 minute challenges/organize with me!
My condolences for the loss of your grandmother Cass. And congratulations on the firefighter position. You will find a balance in all your endeavors and know that we appreciate all that you have done for this community! Keep us updated as you can, and live your best life!
Congratulations on your firefighter dreams! 🎉
Sorry for the loss of your grandmother 😢
I love watching all the videos you make. It makes my day! ❤
All the fire fighters will automatically love you.
They will doubly love you when you organize the fire house! 😊
Haha so true
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Amazing!!!
I used to be a burn unit nurse and we saw ourselves as community partners with the local firefighters. We did fundraisers for them, they donated patient care items to our unit; on rare occasions they were our patients, too, and we always knew they could one day be our rescuers, just as they often had been for our patients. Firefighters are always heroes! Be safe and be proud!
So sorry for the loss of your grandmother. Congratulations on becoming a firefighter! I hope your daughter's leg is okay! My husband is battling throat cancer. Right now, It's a full time job tube feeding, keeping up with his meds and chemo and radiation appointments. So my household organization projects are on hold. Last night he spent the night in the hospital getting blood transfusions. I actually got to take a shower and sleep 7 hours! I really enjoyed just seeing your life update. It made me smile.❤
I love, love, love your "clean with me" videos. So just take us along as you do chores. You talk to yourself as you clean and you are hilarious in the best way! I fold laundry or clean along with you.
Please do one about your robot vacuum cleaners, how you actually use those, and do you have to prepare for that, how often do you do what they don’t touch etc
I'm a late in life diagnosed adhder and your video have helped a lot . Maybe you could do a video on how your able to do all the amazing stuff you have going on right now cause I suffer from overwhelme a lot and it limits the things I want to do.
This is so awesome… 👏🏽 my husband is finishing his last semester of Firefighting school… so i had to share this video with him lol he showed our kids how to put on his bunker gear … he loved seeing this ❤
I was a high school drop out too and a teen mom. It's really inspiring to see where you are in life now
Ideas - stuff you do anyway…your end-of-day whole house 5 min pick up routine. Your daily picking out wardrobe routine. Your mail sort routine. Your bathroom cleaning routine. Your kitchen food prep and clean up routine, with emphasis on where your cooking utensils, mixing bowls, cutting board, and pots and pans are stored. Hints on finding and deleting junk emails and spam. Deepest sympathy of loss of your grandmother.
Hey- even recycling ♻️ some of those incredible golden oldies that quite possibly many followers never got the chance to watch from years and years ago. They still apply…. Pick some favorite clean outs and replay with a quick comment before and/or after♥️
My dad is a volunteer firefighter. Thanks for doing this, they always need more people!
I struggle with getting things done. Even writing them down, I get overwhelmed with everything I need to do... not to mention that I have to take a shower, brush my teeth, all the bathroom activities, and get dressed for the day! It's all a very slow process for me. So to see all the things you're involved with, I don't understand how you or anyone have time to manage ALL the things plus be a mom and wife! I love your videos and always watch til the end and then I don't have time to do anything else while I'm engaged in your videos 😅 but I want to do better! And also have better time management and know it's OK not to get everything done in one day.
I'm sorry for the loss of your grandmother 😢
I would be cautious trusting them for your nose, personally, maybe a second opinion just to make sure they got it all?
As for video requests, I would actually really enjoy a body doubling video where you just have the camera on while you're cleaning or doing something you were already going to do. Hopefully would involve less editing as well. But if you need a break from posting we're totally cool with that as well! Take care Cas! 💜
WOOHOO! What an accomplishment! As for video ideas - "Day in the Life" is always fun with you. An update on the garage kitty would be neat, too. (And omg your Bridgerton comment 🤣)
As a fellow former volunteer emt/ firefighter, I’m excited for your journey!
As far as future video suggestions- maybe a quick list of links to your favorite organizing/ decluttering past videos with just a few quick comments on why you think they still hold up and maybe what you would do differently
My thought too…an up to date intro to your favourite old videos during this busy time. Also, it’s summer soon, spend time with your kids!
Cass - watching one of your videos a couple of years ago is what finally convinced me to go ahead with my own weight loss surgery. Thank you!!! Thank you for sharing your story. Best decision I ever made. How you speak about the relief of just not having to think about it, and the stupid food noises. It is just such a relief.
Oh Cas!! I love you and your enthusiasm for life! You go girl!! But burn out is real so be wise and find a few minutes for yourself.
These life updates are amazing! I wish you would do them monthly...maybe goals in the beginning and then a recap at the end of the year.
Since your mom is selling her house, I would love and appreciate some moving videos! That would be super helpful!! Love you Cass!! You are amazing!!
Yes, I will be helping my mom do that in the future. Right now, she won’t let go of anything!
W O W !!! YES. CRAZYPANTS!
My entire body clenched when I saw that dirt bike. I’m overly cautious and am glad no one was severely injured. 😱
Sounds like you need to declutter your activities.😆
Sorry to hear about the loss of your grandma. Mine passed decades ago and I still feel the loss. 💞
I’ll watch anything you do Cas! Looking forward to you helping your mom with her house.
Congratulations 🎉 keep up the hard work Cas!! I’ve been a firefighter for 23yrs just some advice, if you use your bunker gear in a fire 🔥 do not bring it home. Cancer prevention is a big thing in our department and our gear has cancerous materials. Keep up with the physical training and your studies 🫶🏽🥰💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
I'm so sorry about your grandmother. Hugs and prayers
Cass, you are a joy to watch! You talking about your health problems makes me realise that my problems are pretty normal and life hasnt picked on me deliberately! Weight wise you look great and yeah there was a time when you were too thin! It doesnt matter what you talk about or do on video its always great to see you
You did IT!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Co Gratulation!❤❤❤❤ This video was so ADHD!!!😂😂😂😂😂 And this and that and this and that... I'm so happy, you did something with your nose. We need you!
I'm so sorry Cass. So happy your doing ok.
You do whats best for you darlin! Were behind you 100%!
❤❤❤
content that has been helpful/ content i would enjoy seeing:
- going back to spaces that have been organized/decluttered and reorganizing/decluttering
- how to utilize weird spaces in the home
- organizing large collections for adults (books, vinyl, toys, etc.)
- 1 day in the life of regular decluttering for upkeep
- organizing high traffic spaces for best use
- styling/organizing for welcoming/happy spaces
First off, never heard of Baby reindeer but you know I. Gonna have to see it now. CONGRATULATIONS on the volunteer firefighter gig. AWESOME. You are an absolute inspiration. We will be here when you get back. Luv ya!❤🇦🇺
This is why we love you 😍 Cass, thank you so much for the encouragement and just being you !
YAY, Congratulations!! You did it!! I’m so proud of you. This episode of Cas.. was beneficial to me right now. You are so encouraging and I love your content. Heath can be so scary, please stay on these things and also take care of YOU!
Thanks!
On the topic of gardening and ADHD - plant some herbs that you use in a lot of recipes! I always used to buy those small packets of herbs at the grocery store and I’d forget about them in the fridge. Now, I have my fresh herbs growing in the garden, so I don’t have to worry about them going bad. 🙂
There was a LOT in this vid. Now, congratulations to you and condolences to you as well. You are pretty amazing, you have the energy of a toddler. Good job!!
Congratulations on reaching the next stage in your firefighter journey! So sorry about the loss of your grandmother. I am very happy you had the skin cancer addressed. Looking forward to the videos of decluttering your Mom's house.
Cass, you are such an inspiration and you're never old to change your mindset about decluttering/cleaning!
You’re a courageous person
Hi Super Cas! I have a suggestion. A lot of people have problem areas of their homes. Could people send in a photo and you suggest ideas for the area. Rather than going and doing it? People watching could send in or try out the idea in their home. This sounds not so wonderful, but I thought I'd share. I'm in Australia so getting help is never going to be possible. Especially because I live in a mid renovation home. It's been 7 years and we're halfway 😢. But I love the idea of someone helping with stuck areas, because most of us have an area, that just sits wrong with us and joins the silent to do list. Love you xx
The little drawer clean out you did was great. I’d watch every one of those.
Good job taking care of yourself and your family!
congratulations to you, be proud of yourself🥰
scary story of someone who had brand new house built. slowly but sure, all pipes began to leak one behind the other. The pumping contractor used D grade = drain only grade copper pipes all through the blooming house. Fingers crossed that didn't happen to yourself and family. Enjoy the Fire Fighting course, speaking as someone who was in a fire as a kid, Fire Fighters rock , such important people.
I enjoy the body doubling videos where you are cleaning or decluttering a space in your home. Helps me to get up and get something done. Love to see more of those! ❤
I’m 80 and my husbands full time caregiver. I would like to get my house decluttered and organized. Keep giving encouragement to us.
Please get some help looking after your husband. You deserve time to yourself.
Contact state agency on aging, people to help you declutter, someone to help you with husband
Start with decluttering papers, if you can, even just a couple a day. It will make a difference over time. I think papers are the most difficult for family to get through in the future. God bless you.
CONGRATULATIONS on all your accomplishments! WOW!!
It is ok to take a moment for yourself. We will miss your videos but if you must take a break from filming please do. Once you have time😅 rested and watched a few movies, come back to us 😊
Amazing work and I am so sorry for your loss. Grandparents are so special. Ideas for videos - digital organization. Pictures and files etc? Another idea- shared workspace organization.
Thank you for the honesty about weight loss surgery.
Good for you, Cass! You're such a hard worker! Sorry about your grandmother. Your son on his bike was so sweet.
Cass, so proud of you. You are my fearless friend. Continue with your capers. When you come up for air, let us know what you’re doing. Take as much time as you need. ❤️2U& yours
Ideas: 1. ADHD content 2. Time management 3. How to get the family involved in helping around the house, who does what 4. What things to do yourself, and when to hire help (especially when you have ADHD) 5. Dealing with the shame of being overwhelmed with all the things and how to take baby steps forward 6. The first things to go when you’re busy and stressed (I’m great at the idea part, just not the execution so much 😂).
Yes all of this
Dang, I've been following for awhile now, actually prior to your surgery. Can't believe it's been 5 years now. I love your energy in this video. You seem so excited and alive. It's inspiring.
You definitely gave me inspiration to not count myself as being too old (I am 34 with a toddler so I counted myself out of a lot of things).
Video ideas....help others at their houses but don't make it a big thing. It doesn't need dramatic before and after. It's nice seeing you help others make small progress. And I am thinking that wouldn't require days and weeks of prep work.
Give yourself grace! This is a busy season of life, but it will slow down, and if something does not work out for you, you will know what to do. If you have miss so videos, we can always watch the old ones for a while. Congratulations on being a fire fighter! You can do it!
WOOOHOOOO! WHAT A GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT! 🎉❤😅👏🏻🤩😎🙌🏼
Your children as well as you and Joe would LOVE a four-wheeler! My husband and I as well as our granddaughters love ours :)
Video suggestions: organizing oddly shaped closets and pantries (e.g., angled walls, corner shelving, what were they thinking when they built this monstrosity of a space?!). Also, organizing and storing seasonal items like pool or gardening items only used in summer 😊
Congratulations, Cas. A full itinerary is only good for a short while, so please consider your long-term health.
I would live a time management video. I'm like you in respect of needing something to do constantly. My mind is rarely quiet. ❤
I wish I could get up and do something productive like go back to nursing but I have stage four cancer and I’m disabled now. But I was a high school dropout and I went back to school in my 30’s and 40’s and got a masters degree in nursing education and did some great things in that field. So yes!!! People should do what they want to do with their lives before it’s too late!!! I’m 64 now and wish I could do more still! You are doing great Cas!!!
Cool! You rock!!!
