Description

The holiday season can bring joy, celebration, and memory-making—but it often brings clutter, stress, and an overwhelming amount of “stuff” too. In this episode, we share simple, compassionate strategies to help prepare your home and mindset before the holiday rush sets in.

By picking nonprofits ahead of time, setting up sorting bins that actually work, and letting go of the dreaded “junk in the trunk” habit, we can approach this season with more ease, more intention, and more space for connection.

This is not about perfection or overhauling everything before January—it’s about small, practical steps that help us organize with care and enjoy the season more fully.

In This Episode We Talk About:

• Why the holiday season is also an “organizing season” and how to use it as a reset
• How to pick nonprofits in advance so donation decisions become effortless
• The power of labeled bins to keep clutter moving instead of piling up
• Why “junk in the trunk” delays progress—and how to stop it for good

Mentioned in This Episode:

• The importance of choosing nonprofits ahead of time for holiday donations
• Creative naming ideas for sorting bins (freebie available in the show notes)
• Setting a 7-day rule for donation drop-offs to avoid clutter in the car
