Kids don’t learn “Stuff-Management 101” at school, yet the ability to sort, store, and let go of belongings is a genuine life skill. In today’s episode I’m sharing the 8 mindset shifts that turn kids into confident, clutter-busting pros, no matter how old they are.

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • Why decluttering is literacy, not a chore – and how it strengthens executive-function skills such as planning and emotional regulation.
  • The simple “Model Loudly” technique that shows kids how you make keep-toss decisions (and why narrating matters).
  • How to ease all-or-nothing anxiety with smart limits.
  • Ways to respect different attachment levels—so sentimental rock-collectors and mini-Marie Kondos can thrive in the same household.
  • The 5 Principles of Beautiful Living—and how linking each tidy-up to a bigger purpose helps habits stick for life.
  • Fast, fun celebrations (donation field trips, before-and-after photos, family movie night) that make decluttering feel like a win, not a punishment.
