    Marie Kondo is so right when she advises to not declutter other peoples stuff but instead start in on your own stuff and then its infectious - your mom just couldn't resist getting in on the action 😂 it looks great and your dad is so talented, loved his song at the end

    This video is changing lives! I watched it with my new roommate, who was a bit stressed and intimidated by my urge to reorganise the house, (I just moved in and it was super cluttered), but afterwards we decluttered the whole living room and she even tentatively asked me if I could help her with her room as well! And I watched it with my mom who is now so excited to start the process together :)

    It's always so interesting to hear people say they don't need to declutter, sometimes when they've never decluttered before. I think people get used to seeing their homes in a certain way, and don't think about the details of what's in their home. It just doesn't seem like clutter to them. But once they start looking with new eyes, they start to realize there really is clutter, they had no idea they had so much stuff they didn't need, or even want!

    The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning by Margareta Magnusson is the way to go. As someone who had to clean out my parent's house (dad passed, mom downsized), I can tell you it is super stressful to have to get rid of so much stuff in one go, especially when you're grieving. I have death cleaned for my kids and I continue to go through stuff every so often because I don't want them to have to get rid of all the crap I couldn't be bothered to get rid of. It's not fair to pass the burden down. My father died at 59. You never know when your time will come, it's best to lighten the load for those you may leave behind.

      I did this twice in the last year because my previous employer moved offices and my parents are moving. My boss isn't attached to his stuff fortunately, he just never bothered to clean so I had to volunteer to help look through stuff or it wouldn't have gotten done. His office looked like an episode of Hoarders but at least I was getting paid. And my dad is a neatnick and both parents were proactive about getting rid of stuff so helping them was relatively a breeze.

    This would be a series I would so look forward to! At the beginning, when your dad said he didn’t want his things to burden you or your siblings, that hit me. My father in law was diagnosed with dementia and we have been helping, then taking over decluttering his home for about a year now. Sometimes it feels endless, just when a space is cleared out, there are more boxes, papers, clothes, etc. to comb through (esp bc he kept everything) but in a way I’m thankful we got to do this now instead of when he passes since I would imagine it would be that much more overwhelming. Anyway, it made me smile to see how open your dad is and how your mom came around to it ❤
