- 1 hour 7 seconds437: There Really is No Secret to Keeping the House Under Control
It’s so easy to fall into the trap of thinking there has to be another, better way to keep the house under control. Unfortunately, there isn’t.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Balance relaxing and keeping on top of things
- Purposefully changing the location of some things without ruining the “where would I look first” to better utilize the space in my home
- Conquering the car clutter

19 December 2024, 11:00 am - 29 minutes 30 seconds436: Decluttering When You're in Less Than Ideal Circumstances
I'm answering some questions that were submitted at AskDanaKWhite.com. The general theme is that it's hard to declutter when circumstances aren't ideal. Lucky for us, the No Mess Decluttering Method works in any situation.
- We live in an older home with zero closets, not for clothes, nothing for linens. I am struggling so hard with “take it there now” when nothing seems to have a home that makes sense.
- Do you have any suggestions for preparing for a time when I know I’ll have a lower clutter threshold, but I also know will be not-forever?
- I've been stuck renovating, moving boxes from room to room, and living in a "war-zone". How do I declutter if I am stuck in the never-ending painting/sanding jobs with very little energy left?
- How do I give myself the advantage of having a decluttered home from the start with all the chaos that comes with a move?

21 November 2024, 11:00 am - 35 minutes 27 seconds432: Spoiler Alert - The Answer is the Container Concept
I'm answering some questions that were submitted at AskDanaKWhite.com. And, spoiler . . . the Container Concept is pretty much always the answer. Hearing how it applies to all of these different situations will help you apply it to your situation!
Mentioned: The Container Concept Explained video
The questions answered in this episode:
- Help! My magazine clippings have invaded my clutter threshold. The clippings are images of homes, interiors, gardens, decor items, recipes, lifestyle, places I want to visit, and articles.
- In response to your decluttering for your current self, instead of keeping stuff for who you used to be, my struggle is unpublished manuscripts. How do you decide when to throw it all away. The research, the notes, the manuscript itself and the many idea boards?
- I am recovered from an eating disorder and having a range of clothing sizes to account for life's natural weight fluctuations has been key to my recovery. I have now been recovered long enough that my weight fluctuates minimally, which is different than the initial dramatic fluctuations. so there is no reason for the range of clothes i have. How do I declutter when I'm compelled to keep all these sizes?
- I’ve been doing some great decluttering but as soon as my hubby says ‘ I think we should declutter…’ or ‘our house is a mess we should get rid of stuff’ I lose all motivation! How do I combat this?
- What do you do if your container for a type of item is perfectly filled but then you receive an unexpected gift that you could grow to love, but you don't want to donate a current favorite just to try it out?
- I want to declutter. I want to get rid of stuff. But since I was a kid I was kinda "shamed" for throwing stuff away.

7 November 2024, 11:00 am - 42 minutes 39 seconds430: Decluttering When Bad Things Really Could Happen
Those of us who struggle (big time) with clutter love to feel prepared for anything (and everything). The idea of decluttering can feel like giving up on that, and when worst-case scenarios actually happen, all those panicky feelings flare up and make it hard to let go of clutter.
The solution is not to pretend bad things can’t happen. It’s to accept reality. It’s reality that bad things happen. It’s also reality that keeping more stuff than my house can hold or that I can handle makes dealing with bad things (or even good things) more difficult.
