The Power of a "Yes" List šŸ”„


Decluttering Tips and Support Weekly Newsletter Vol. 30

Dear Reader,

We're used to writing mile-long to-do lists, but have you ever written a "yes" list?

A "yes" list is a list of everything you have said "yes" to. Those could range from commitments and obligations to simple things like....keeping small humans alive. 🤣

In yesterday's episode, I speak to my friend Jessica Jackson from the Thriving in Motherhood Podcast about how to write out your "yes" list and evaluate it so you can truly understand what matters right now - and pause or eliminate the rest.

On the journey with you,

Emily

Unfortunately, most of the to-do's aren't fun but rather boring "adulting" ones like going to the dump, putting together Banker boxes, and making phone calls. I wish I could have a positive attitude like our friend Ted Lasso... ...but often I find myself unmotivated and procrastinating. So how...

Decluttering Tips and Support Dear Reader, As my two boys have grown, they have started taking my statements and requests as, shall we say, gateways for negotiation. If I tell them they can watch one show, they ask if they can watch two. If I tell them they can have three pieces of candy, they ask if they can have four. If I ask them to be home for dinner by 5:30, they ask if they can play until 6. It's constant. And exhausting. It's hard to hold boundaries when they just won't quit! If...

Decluttering Tips and Support Dear Reader, For those of you who are following along with our moving journey, we are breathing a bit easier this week with a signed contract on our house.
