Summary
Here's something that *genuinely* surprised me when I started decluttering years ago: only a SMALL percent of what's sitting on most kitchen counters is actually CLUTTER. The rest is something else entirely...which is exactly why clearing it off never seems to stick. In this episode I'll walk you through what's really landing there and exactly what to do with each one, so your counters can finally stay clear for longer than a day! We chat about: 🩺 The medical misdiagnosis that made me realize we do the exact same thing to our homes 🔍 The four main categories that land on all of our counters (and why only one of them is true clutter) 🧺 My favorite habit for the biggest pile, the question I ask every client about their countertop appliances, and where to put the mail so it never reaches your counters Enjoy! 🫧 Aqua Tru Water Purifier → https://home.katyjoywells.com/aquatru (use code MAX for 20% off) // Get 1:1 Support From Me and Finally Declutter Your Home!
