“I have found having this podcast on while cleaning and going through my things really helps keep me focused and reminded of long term goals with a clutter free house, less spending on randomness, and more time for traveling. My partner was not as on board as I was. The way I helped show the value was when I started going through my things I started my my closet with sports jerseys. Listed online lots of things I knew had monetary value. I then started working on the smaller things that would have minimal value to try to sell and went through to decide donate, repurpose, etc. at the end of 90 days I was able to show my partner that while I made a tiny dent in our closets and total stuff in the house we made over $3,800 that is going towards our next travel adventure.
Now, they are able to see a little better the longer term vision and has joined in on going through and questioning what truly brings us value and what can we pass on to bring value to others. Being able to show a few months work turn into a financial value add to our future helped us get on the same page and enjoy this journey ahead together! I will never push them to be as extreme as I have been going with my personal items but even being able to give them more space for what brings them value has been a beautiful gift I was happy to share (room of sports memorabilia and jerseys just sitting and collecting dust has been turned into an art space for them to create paintings and relieve stress in between their 2 jobs).”
