Decluttering Tips and Support Weekly Newsletter Vol. 47Dear Reader, Happy New Year! π So grateful to hang out with you every Friday in your inbox, and looking forward to providing you with tons of decluttering and simplifying tips in 2025! On New Year's Eve I was able to stay up for part of the Penn State/Boise State game (Let's go State!) and then I crashed. My husband and two boys managed to stay up for the ball drop at midnight. It was the first time the boys stayed up past like 9:00 PM. So needless to say, New Year's Day was...interesting. I'm excited to kick off 2025 with a new decluttering challenge in the Facebook group starting Monday, January 6. I'd love to see you there so we can make room for what matters most!

In this week's episode, Emily Nichols from Habit Hack Your Health and I chat about just that! Make sure to check out the episode, as well as Emily's Training for Life App!
