🎉new subbie🎉 I’m so glad you are showing this content, I too struggle with anxiety, depression, and ADD. I barely found out that having ADD contributes to cluttered and messy homes. Due to lack of executive function. I get Overwhelmed and focus on insignificant areas. I have a closet that I have not unpacked, since we have lived here embarrassingly for years because it is so intimidating 😂. We are moving now and so I’m decluttering everything. thank you for showing those like us are not alone. ❤
@@CrystalEstrada1 aw, you are too sweet! 🤗 i love reading comments like yours to validate that i'm not alone, too. thank you for sharing that with me, and i wish you the best of luck in your move! moving is the best time to declutter, so you got this girl!! ❤😜
It’s ok, it’s real life and I appreciate your honesty, many of us let it get out of hand before we can finally get to it, new subscriber! Thank you for being real and sharing!
That closet reminds me of something that happened when my son was about 12 years old (He's 45, now). He had been messy in typical 12-year-old fashion. Then, one day, I came in from work to find the house spotless! Nothing was out of place, not his things, not my things. Nothing! And, then, I opened the coat closet and the cabinets, and everything came tumbling out. ROBERT!!!
My daughter she was 16 years old she wanted go out with friend for lunch. I said before clean your messy room you can go.15 minutes later she came she said I did Okey. When I look perfect. Later I seen everything was in her closet... 2. Time she wanted go same I said after clean your mess you can go, I look right away checking her closet no mess. She is gone out with friends. Next day I seen everything all mess was under her bed. Ahhhh😢 She is now 43, she has 3 teenagers daughters now she is teaching them 😂😂😂
I have ADD also and get depressed-I started my decluttering journey about 18 months now-the better my house gets the better I feel!Keep going-you got this!Just one thing-when you're feeling overwhelmed-dont look at what you have to do-LOOK AT ALL YOUVE ALREADY DONE!AND CELEBRATE IT!
I am grateful for your honesty during this video. I’m on the upside of a four month really bad depressive cycle and it so nice to know I’m not alone in this. Like I know I’m not but my brain try’s to tell me otherwise.
you are not alone girl ❤ thank you for sharing. i’m so glad i was able to bring you a little comfort, that really makes my day! you got this, joelle! 🫶🏼
Your dedication to creating a beautiful and functional home is inspiring. Can't wait to see your creative DIY projects and home makeovers! ✨#EcoHome #SustainableLiving #GreenHome #ZeroWasteHome #SustainableDecor #EthicalHome #EcoFriendlyHome #NaturalLiving #LowImpactLiving #ConsciousHome
So glad you are bringing awareness to how anxiety and depression can in this way create havoc with everyday living. I have my own catch all closet and wish it didn't exist! Decluttering along with you!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANNNKKK YOUU! I also have depression, anxiety, ADD, ADHD, and I get so very overwhelmed. Not to mention my family lives four hours away. Had a severe HG pregnancy, puking up to 22 times a day, and then had my baby.. body wouldn’t produce Breastmilk.. and then teething and sleep regression. SOOO it is SO comforting to know that I’m not the only one who mentally has break downs and can’t keep it all going all the time. I get sooo happy with a clean home, but my depression waves hit and they hit hard. Thank you for being raw and real. I NEEDED this♥️♥️♥️
wait girl are we the same person?! everything you said was spot on for me too! postpartum & pregnancy are HARD. thank you for commenting this, it’s nice knowing i’m not the only one too 🥹 i’m so glad you found some comfort from this video, have a great day, ali! 🫶🏼🥰
You're no alone! I watched so I can get some tips and suggestions. I'm finally starting to deal with the stuff my mom left behind after she passed two years ago and on top of that I'm dealing with my own stuff. It's overwhelming to say the least. I think I'm finally dealing with it because I have to get a surgery in the coming months and go on leave away from my current house so I can have a peaceful recovery and not deal with my family. I want to come home to a clean well organized space.
I’m new here and from WI. I’m a mom of two, but my kids are 22 and 20 now, so adults. LOL. I still have a ton of things to declutter. We still have some toys from when our kids were kids!! We are moving to a new house, so we are decluttering like mad!!
This is fantastic motivation for others! Never feel ashamed of real life messes and showing the gruelling process of cleaning up. I love these videos! We all have spaces that are clutter magnets and storage areas that are disorganized or full of piles.
Great job. I get overwhelmed sometimes as well. I'm very OCD and along with that comes some anxiety. I'm learning to be easier on myself and trying not to worry about everything being always perfect. I'm slowly decluttering as well bc lots of stuff increases my anxiety. It's all about a good balance. You did a great job today, thank you for sharing and being so raw and real. You got this! ❤️
Omg I can relate my closet are a hot mess,everything that doesn’t fit gets shoved in a closet and my laundry room is the same thing,because it’s in the back of my house and no one sees it but us..I’m de cluttering my laundry room today I went through my grandson room about a month ago and donated almost all his toys,I just kept the ones he plays with often,it felt so good to get rid of the stuff
Great job Kenzie!!! Also great advice, you don’t have to to everything in a day. A section at a time and it will all be done. We all need to be kind to ourselves! ❤
Something that I have struggled with is doing the declutter challenges. Not sure why but I have to be in a mood to declutter. I can't look at a list and shop my house for books on "book day", for example. Thank you for your motivation and transparency. 💖🙌💌
Wow i am so glad that you are so honest💗. I have also suffer from depressions, i had some tia's and a Cerebral infarct. I can be messy and chaotic and i do my best to declutter and cleaning , but i am always very tired (i am 60 ). I have a job for 40hrs a week. By your honesty i don;t feel myself guilty. Thanks for that..
Well done for being brave and speaking honest.y about your mental health and how your house changes with being tidy and then being all over the place. Best thoughts.
I love that you are raw. RUclips is full of perfectness and I totally get it. Making RUclips videos I’m always like ‘argh my house is so messy I have to tidy it’ but totally want to lean into realness and just film
Your place looks amazing!! I can’t believe how much space you freed up! I live alone, so my kitchen is pretty sparse, but I imagine with kiddos it gets full pretty quick. Great job on the clean up and I’m glad I can binge all the other videos 😂
I have been using all my beat up/old laundry baskets to donate things too! Now sure if you're looking to or interested in changing up your laundry baskets once you go through your closet, bur I invested in those collapsible laundry baskets and they have worked SO well for me. Mine fit perfectly between my washer and dryer when not in use. Just thought I'd mention it!
Great video. I am a brand new follower. You can tell who is more gifted in the area of putting quality videos out. You are one of them. You will do well.
Your home is beautiful! Must feel so great to get everything minimalized and organized! I am so impressed with how many things you get rid of. I know it makes me feel good when I do those things. I'm trying get more comfortable with giving things away. Also, do you not go online and buy more stuff? Lol. I feel like I online shop for therapy sometimes so it's hard to keep from doing that and accumulating more stuff!
New subscriber here! Thanks for being honest. Super motivating. Seeing the pristine room behind you at the beginning of the video, it’s beautiful but I felt “my house doesn’t look like that”. So thanks for being real. I have adhd as well and trying to figure out how to normal without meds haha. Also where’s your grey cozy lounge set you’re wearing at first? Thanks!
thank you so much for saying hi! i'm so happy you're here ☺️ it's a goal of mine to show MY reality on my channel, my house may look "clean" on the outside but in the hidden spaces, it's a disaster. i totally feel you girl! ❤️ my set is from skims!! let me find a link for you!
you HAVE TO be proud of yourself. It doesn't matter, if you achieve a "small" or "big" goal. (who defines these anyway) even if you only throw away one single item or clean one thing, it's one thing less to do, meaning it's a success.
I think you are making great changes. It also will clear your mind and have you enjoy your home a lot more with less clutter. I am so guilty of the same thing. STUFF is just the way the world is anymore. You definitely need shelves in your storage closet. I have purged so much clutter as well. My mom always told me the more family time, the better, instead of constantly cleaning all the stuff, which is a mind cluster for sure. Definitely for your shoes. God bless and be safe 🙏 ❤️
I had to much clutter, clean clean home always organize and never finish. I gave a lot stuff donated beautiful stuffs, it took long time. Every time I seen my house bigger, easy to clean, more important I have time for myself more than before. Yes darling❤ we are same but we can do it, I did it you can do it just little little start you will see, you are not going miss anything, let's enjoy life❤❤❤
I feel so seen lol thank you for this going on my own Declutter journey and a few rooms look a mess rn but it’s a process lol 🤌🤌🤌 almost done lol 😂 mad inspo appreciate it haha
Amazing job! So impressive! I do have to say though, I would have been wearing a short sleeve t-shirt and shorts doing that job. If I had been wearing your fuzzy outfit, I would have died of heat stroke halfway through (and I'm in Minnesota!)
I refuse to buy more storage containers. Like you, I prefer to reuse and repurpose ones throughout the house and garage. Ones from the fridge work just as well in the bathroom, ones from the garage work just as well in the linen closet, etc. etc.
Why would anyone mess up their house on purpose just for a video? Anyone that thinks that way should just watch someone else if they feel that way. I will never understand why people would waste their time being rude to others
i’m really exposing myself in this video 😂 but i mean the end result?!?! how satisfying!! 🤗

me too! but tbh i’m never in the mood to declutter. i have to force myself to start, but the end result is sooo worth it!! thanks for watching!! ♥️
I’m totally like this too. Even having a set time for things in like ‘what if I don’t feel like doing that at that time 🙄😂’
Wow i am so glad that you are so honest💗. I have also suffer from depressions, i had some tia's and a Cerebral infarct.

Love it! Thanks so much for sharing!
thanks so much for taking the time to comment! 🫶🏼🤗
Good Job!, I'm working on that myself, you should be proud of yourself!,

You are a great communicator ❤

Hi kenzie i am so pleased you said what you did if anyone doesn't like it that's sad you did great happy you are less is good 🎉🏡👨👩👦

You did an awesome job! 👏
thank you so much!
Great job, you're my hero!!!
YOU are!! 🫶🏼☺️♥️
Thank you for the video ✨
Love the outfit! Where can one find it?
Thanks for sharing!
An ikea shoe closet would be perfect in that coat closet.
i was thinking the same thing!!
Amazing job! So impressive! I do have to say though, I would have been wearing a short sleeve t-shirt and shorts doing that job. If I had been wearing your fuzzy outfit, I would have died of heat stroke halfway through (and I'm in Minnesota!)
haha i was working up a sweat that’s for sure! 😂
You are fairly young and you are learning good for you❤️❤️❤️
aw thank you !! i appreciate you taking the time to leave such a sweet comment like this 🫶🏼🥰
If anyone says anything negative about your house, they are required to attach a picture of theirs. NO ONE HAS THEIR SHIT TOGETHER. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
PREACHHH sister!!! 🫶🏼
BEST TIP I heard was not to go buy more organizers. Re use or find what you already have at home. 🙌🏻
Great job 👏 👍
I love your wall color what is the name?
agreeable grey by sherwin williams!
Love your outfit, looks great on you ❤
thank you so much 🥹
How many shoes does one need?
I feel owning so many things creates anxiety and so many other mental issues.
👏👏👏
I refuse to buy more storage containers. Like you, I prefer to reuse and repurpose ones throughout the house and garage. Ones from the fridge work just as well in the bathroom, ones from the garage work just as well in the linen closet, etc. etc.
yes!! exactly! i used one meant to be for the “pantry” in this video, you are right on, liz!
First time visiting your channel!! Loved the video but you look EXACTLY like the girl from the channel crazy cleaning mama.
oh really?! what a compliment! thank you!!
Why not use shopping bags to donate stuff in
❤🎉❤
Boom
Hey
hi!
You are so beautiful :)
thank you so much 😭♥️
Why would anyone mess up their house on purpose just for a video? Anyone that thinks that way should just watch someone else if they feel that way. I will never understand why people would waste their time being rude to others

Your house is beautiful can you come decorate my home? I’ll pay you!
