208 | How to Get Your Spouse Onboard With Decluttering

Hi Guys!

In this episode, I dive into a question from Michael, a husband trying to navigate the tricky waters of decluttering with his wife. Unlike the typical dynamic where wives are urging husbands to declutter, Michael's situation flips the script—he's doing most of the housework now and wants to create a more peaceful, clutter-free home.

We discuss:

Why decluttering isn't just about the stuff but about your relationship and shared vision for your home.
How to approach the conversation with empathy and gratitude, focusing on what matters most.
Practical steps for working together, starting small, and honoring both your right to peace and your partner's perspective.
Why your right to a peaceful home is just as important as their right to hold onto clutter—and how to find balance.

I also recommend the book US by Terrance Real, which is a game-changer for modern relationships and a must-read for couples.

If you've ever struggled with decluttering and relationships, this episode is for you!
