If you've ever stood in front of a cluttered drawer holding an extra phone charger, a random kitchen gadget, or a bin of "just in case" items wondering, What if I need this someday? - you're not alone. In fact, that single question is one of the biggest reasons so many overwhelmed moms get stuck when they're trying to declutter their homes. The problem usually isn't that you don't know how to organize. It's that making decisions about what to keep feels exhausting. Every item seems to require a major life decision, and before you know it, you've spent an hour moving things from one pile to another instead of actually making progress. In this episode of the Stress Less Podcast, I'm sharing one of my favorite decluttering strategies that has completely changed the way I make those decisions: the 20/20 Rule. This simple decluttering rule helps reduce decision fatigue, quiet the "what if" thoughts, and makes it easier to let go of the things that are taking up space in your home and your mind. I also share two additional questions I've started asking myself that make this tool even more powerful.
