When You Hate Clutter But Your Loved One Doesn't

When you hate clutter but your loved one doesn't, what do you do? With my clients, I find it creates tension and often leads to arguments. It's a common situation that requires uncommon strategies. I share four strategies for this situation in this video.

I'm a keeper (hoarder as they say). My wife, of course, is a shredder. This helps put a lot of things into perspective, as I couldn't understand the shedder psychology. My thoughts have always been, "If I've spent hard earned money on this, and it hasn't gone bad, then I deserve to keep it." Most likely derived from my childhood without much money. That coupled with some light ADHD makes cleaning, organizing, and shedding a nightmare process for me. Your videos truly help me wrap my mind around this, and I can't thank you enough.

That’s great to hear Perry. Thank YOU.

A hoarder is not the same thing as being cluttered. Hoarding is a serious issue brought on by trauma. Comparing the two is very unhealthy for those who actually have this problem (much how calling random people OCD doesn't help those with OCD)

I love your ideas - they are respectful and practical at the same time!
