How member Michelle Decluttered Her Way to a Fresh Start one floor up | Ep 417 #apartment #declutter

Ever wondered if moving just one floor up could actually be harder than a cross-town move? What if downsizing your belongings was the secret to upsizing your life and making room for what truly matters? Could letting go of your corporate past be the key to stepping confidently into your retirement future? 🔗 Read / Listen more: https://declutterhub.com/417 In this episode, Ingrid and Lesley sit down with Inner Hub member Michelle to explore how she turned a seemingly simple one-floor move in her New York City building into a powerful catalyst for transformation. You'll discover practical strategies for decluttering during life transitions, learn why moving short distances can be just as challenging as long ones, and hear how community support can keep you accountable when the going gets tough. Michelle shares her inspiring journey from corporate executive to intentional retiree, revealing how she approached her move as an opportunity to evaluate every possession against her present and future rather than her past. From developing a room-by-room packing plan to committing publicly to unpacking within one week, Michelle demonstrates that successful decluttering isn't about perfection - it's about progress, planning, and having the right support system in place. Throughout the conversation, you'll hear how Michelle leveraged resources like Buy Nothing groups and her local library to both donate unwanted items and source needed household goods without spending unnecessarily. She opens up about the emotional challenge of letting go of corporate mementos and reducing her book collection, whilst making space for what truly matters now: visits from her six grandchildren and a lifestyle that reflects who she is today, not who she used to be.
