Maybe they don't think your home is cluttered, or they like to shop, or what I hear most often is they have a lot of hobbies that you never see them do so you’re not sure why they want to keep all that stuff. What is one to do when you want to live in a clutter free home and your partner is not on the same page? Thankfully, my guest this week on Wannabe Clutter Free is well versed in helping people communicate with their partners through the trials and tribulations of marriage and parenthood. Michelle Purta is a mom of 3, marriage coach and host of The Marriage & Motherhood Podcast. She helps parents feel like a couple again by teaching them how to manage conflict together and make their relationship a priority while raising kids. After experiencing her own relationship struggles and becoming a mom, she noticed how challenging parenthood was on marriage and how many issues couples were facing that were completely fixable. Now she's on a mission to help parents realize that they don't have to choose between being a good parent or a good partner, because they can be both!
