Hey Friends!

This episode is a guided, repeatable decluttering session you can use for each zone of your garage.

You'll:

  • Work in one defined area at a time

  • Set a timer (2–3 hours)

  • Follow a simple system to sort everything quickly

Then come back and repeat the same process for the next zone.

If you hesitate—it goes.

For every item:

  1. Pick it up

  2. Decide immediately:

    • Trash

    • Donate

    • Belongs elsewhere

    • Task List

  3. Write the destination on a post-it

  4. Place the item in its pile

  5. Move on

You're not just sorting.

You're pre-deciding where everything goes:

  • "Goodwill" vs. just "donate"

  • "Mom" vs. "give away"

  • "Kitchen" vs. "put away"

This makes the next phase (removal) fast and frictionless.

I hope this guided decluttering episode helps you!

XO,

Amber

Amber Cammidge hosts Declutter Your Chaos-Mindful Minimalism, a podcast that approaches the overwhelming task of clearing out your space with a unique blend of practicality and introspection. This isn't just about where to donate old clothes or how to fold a fitted sheet, though you'll find those tangible tips here. Instead, each conversation digs into the emotional roots of accumulation, exploring how our habits around stuff are often tied to memory, identity, or a sense of scarcity. The aim is to move beyond a one-time cleanup and foster a lasting, mindful minimalism that creates mental and physical room to breathe. You'll hear about resetting daily routines, building systems that actually work for your real life, and redefining what 'enough' truly means. Grounded in categories like self-improvement and mental health, this podcast recognizes that a calmer home directly supports a fitter, healthier, and more educated self. It's for anyone feeling weighed down by their possessions and ready to explore the quieter, more intentional life that exists just beneath the surface of the clutter. Tune in for honest talks that help you transform your environment from a source of chaos into a foundation for the life you're trying to build.
