Ep 88: Moving Past Under Buying and Over Spending

Do money habits hold you back when it comes to decluttering and organizing your home? You might not think that how we spend our money or the thoughts we have about money have anything to do with our stuff.

Or maybe you just think that only those who over spend and buy stuff they do not need are the only ones who experience the link between spending and clutter. But, for many people - myself included - the way we think about money, even when we do not over spend, has a giant impact on the items in our homes.

In addition to over spending, the other big issue when it comes to money and stuff is under buying. They are on opposite sides of the spectrum when it comes to spending money and both cause problems in our homes and lives.

But, how can spending less money and under buying be a problem when it comes to clutter and having an organized home? Turns out, there is a balance between buying enough so that you have what you need when you need it and buying too much, causing too many piles to build up in your home.
