So great to see you back on youtube! Hoping to join a group soon. Hope you offer some in the a.m. since I'm usually teaching in later afternoons. (except on some summer days) thanks for still being here!!! (It's your piano lady, Susan ,from NH.)

You need to be a little bit more loving to your mother a little more understanding what does it matter if she's cluttered you're not living there you're not cleaning it out. You can dump it all out after she dies. If she's not having to leave her home just help her clean don't help her get rid of anything. She doesn't have long to live letter enjoy the last years of her life😢 (your turn is coming you feel a lot different about it then)

Clutter Clarity support group has helped me so much this past nine months. I’m working on downsizing for an international move and have learned so much like the necessity assembling my support team for help. Cant recommend this work enough to anyone struggling. Thank you Laura! 🙏🏼💜✨

After years of trying to declutter my house, you put so easily into words what I have felt all along since the very beginning of my decluttering journey. Somehow I had a hard time implementing the many "specialists" protocoles that I could find online and was not comfortable with their strange rules about what to keep or let go of. I'd love to read your book "It’s Your Mess, But Not All Your Fault" but I can't find it. Thank you!🌷

Thank you for reminding me that my clutter is normal and not bad and that I'm not bad either! You have taught me a lot and I believe that you have the most insight on the clutter subject. I have read all of the books, watched many, many videos and tried and practiced a lot of good methods. You are the shining star of them all!!! Love & Thank You Sooo Much, ❤❤❤

I have decades of personal journals that I do not read and would not want others to read, but I cannot seem to dispose of them. Help please!

I love that you are back yay 🎉🎉🎉🎉 also love this colour on you. ❤

Skip this & watch Dana K. White. Best realistic advice for decluttering. It will save you a load of time.

Your earlier videos on Clarity Clutter certainly helped me sort out that whole emotional attachment to my stuff. Once that was done, I soared through the stuff!!!

Dear Laura, I enjoy listening to you very much. Your kindness has healing qualities. Thank you!

Hurry should be an option, not a lifestyle... What a deep idea! ❤❤

What a breathe of fresh air Thankyou

Hi. So glad you're back in making videos for us online. I learned a lot from you!

I love your approach and your calm, caring attitude. ❤

So glad you’re back! I love listening to you

Thank you for helping me feel better emotionally and for stressing that we must take care of ourselves first, before we can take care of and address our clutter.🥰

💕💖🤗🇦🇺 thanks Laura👋

"Be interested in what comes up" = EXCELLENT advice! Lately I've been going thru lots of career-focused papers and remembering SO many ways my partner and I tried to make things happen! Probably of no interest to anyone else, but it's FASCINATING for me to revisit all the stuff we tried, chances we took; validates my impression that we truly DID "leave no stone unturned" trying to make it in show-biz! Nothing may have brought us huge success, but by the same token, there really were no huge failures, only "learning experiences"!! 👍Thanks for all of your encouragement, Laura! 🗑🗄🗓 Bit by bit, day by day, I'm gettin' there! XOXO - M

I'm chronically overwhelmed with my circumstances which are very complicated and distressing and getting more so every day, including chronic, disabling health problems. (I won't get into details because it is so complicated.) If I wait until I'm ready to declutter, it's not going to happen. I have to do the work because I have to move in a matter of a week or two, whether I like it or not. How do I get help to do what simply has to be done? My family members all live too far away. I've asked a lot of people for help, but everyone so far is unavailable, and I cannot do the work myself. I think I need individualized help, but I'm on low income. I know about your group, Laura, because you told me about it previously, but I need day to day help right now. Can you help me?

So excited to see this pop up! Love your kind and straightforward way of communicating a sane approach to the somewhat insane pace of life these days...

Thank you very much for this message! Looking forward to hearing more from you on this topic.

I love " Putter through your Clutter."

I am in Central Texas where it has been over 100 for almost 2 months. When I get to this point, I focus on keeping the peppers and tomatoes alive so that when it cools off they will produce again. I'll start seeding another round of herbs, cucumbers, beans, and squash this weekend. Praying for a successful fall garden.

I give things away easily. The problem I have is that when people see my stuff out on display they want it. I tend to offer it to them when they say they really like it. I hide my favorite things so I do not give away what I really want to keep. The other day I put out an item I really love and ended up giving it away. What is going on with me?👀

What a blessing that you share your knowledge with us!!! Thank You ❤️😀

great insight and perspective to procrastination, thank you:)

Thank you Laura, you are great support 🙏

another video that resonates so much, the hiding away, the disconnection because of shame, the overwhelm is my trance, a sort of frozen hell... p.s. I am thinking about joining the group but I live in Europe and the timing is a bit late for me. I checked the page but I still have a question about knowing if there is active decluttering during the sessions or is it more about interacting on zoom, listening talking? I am afraid it's too late if there is decluttering during the sessions together? thank you Laura

"We're all in a mess until we're not" Great message!

Your videos always help me. These topics get me very emotional! Thank you Laura.

This video was very freedom producing-freeing me from guilt.

I've watched quite a few of your presentations, Laura, and they are absolutely excellent. I need to get specific help for my situation but I'm not sure how. I just turned 60 and I've been on disability for many years (since 1996 actually) and my level of functioning - what I can and can't do - has varied quite a lot during that time. It's therefore difficult to know what to keep and what to let go, especially since replacing things, if I need to, is difficult for me (for multiple reasons) and there are financial limitations too. Plus I'm chronically stressed due to circumstances in my life over which I don't have control (despite my efforts to find solutions for the ongoing challenges) so if I keep waiting for a time when it feels okay to declutter, it just isn't going to happen. I need to do the work, though, because I'm in such a small apartment, and I want the freedom and peace that I believe would result from decluttering. Any advice? And anyone I can work with? I’d appreciate your input. Thank you.

Loved Maya Angelou thought.

7:57 Boom❤🎉

My takeaway: don’t let the negative feelings others have put forth on this topic hold me back from the progress I want to make.

Thank you for this positive space!🥰 I get what you’re saying, another thought would be that part of it goes back to bad habits…?!?? ❤️😀

As I am getting older I do not want my family to be burdened with all my clutter should anything happen to me. I guess I am saying that when we live with our clutter we should also consider the time that we will "steal" from others when they have to go through our junk that we ourselves created... just a thought.

This is a healing message that we all need to hear! ❤

Thank you for this video because I have been feeling overwhelmed. I am physically unable to do what I use to, so it seems like things are building up Faster than I can handle them.🤪

Not all clutter is bad. I have a lot of board games and no time to play. I’m going to donate them ❤

Glad your back! I really missed your videos! 💕🌸💕

Thank you for your work ❤, Inspiring 👏

This is excellent advice! Thank you -- I feel better just knowing that I'm not bad, and neither is my clutter. Who knew??

thank you 🙏🏻

thank you so much for this, the shame is the worst part

Thank you for this insight!

I love the new motto: "it's your mess, but not your fault"

Excellent! ❤️😀

Thank you so much. Your videos are very helpful. Glad to see you are back!
