Decluttering with Financial Guilt || 4 Ways I Let Go

In this video, I share a decluttering minimalism set back that recently happened in my journey. I'm not proud of how I let financial guilt bring me down over the last week, but I share honest, real-life, transparent videos about minimalism and decluttering on my channel. I don't know if setback is the right turn of phrase but if I define setback as an interruption of progress, then I had a setback. I have decluttered our entire house and I'm now doing a second full round of decluttering as we prepare to move. The time of year places me in school planning, so I lugged every workbook, school book, curriculum, and manipulative to the table... and to the floor. I didn't realize how much we even still had after the first declutter (which was an extreme declutter). I hung onto each thing you see on purpose, and now didn't want even half of it anymore. So much has changed in a matter of months and I feel differently than I did the first time. The first time I cried and it was hard to make decisions. This time, I thought about what to keep instead of what to trash/donate, and it made it easier. However, I still faced one big hurdle on this round. Financial guilt. #declutter #minimalism #minimalist Extreme Declutter Playlist:    • Playlist   I didn't know that our family would be on an extreme declutter journey when we first started doing this. A recognition of habits, tendencies and our lifestyle has showed us the way towards minimalism.
