Yes to the moving mindset! My husband and I have moved 9 times in 18 years of marriage, and we moved from NY to TN and are renting for the time being, so we will move at least one more time. Knowing we're in temporary housing keeps me on my toes because I'm constantly decluttering and making sure I actually want to move stuff again.
Great helpful video. I enjoy decluttering and making room for things I really need and love now! Just watched your intermittent fasting video you posted 2 weeks ago and would love to know the ingredient amounts for your lunch smoothie( you did say the Greek yogurt amount was 3/4 cup, but don’t know what the other amounts are). You look great! Thanks so much!❤😊
Well done~ We are in the process of clearing out our mother's home, after her passing. It has been a sobering experience, needless ot say. Years of accumulated items has inspired me to look at our home. I am asking my children NOW, if when it's my time are they going to want this or that, if the answer is YES, and I'm not using it I pass it to them now. Or I may donate it. this way they won't have to make that decision when it's my time. Sounds morbid, but it truly works, at this stage in my life, as I am a senior.
Hillary you always give such great advice. You are so right about your wardrobe. I have so many things in my wardrobe I just don't wear..I think I am finally ready to say goodbye .
Recently we cleaned out the garage--tossed junk and donated the better items. Clutter can be a "ball and chain." So nice not having to look at "stuff" and we DON'T miss a thing !!
Clothes with holes and worn elastic and generally unusable for another always gets cut into rags for my husband to use in the garage. Kinda shocked me you were passing those items along. I always look forward to the treasures you find at that swap, I hope you have good luck this year.
To be honest I used to toss them but then I had friends say they liked getting worn clothes especially for free for their kids to wear as play clothes, and also donation centers I’ve heard can better recycle them versus just putting in the trash.
My kids have graduated from College so I have started decluttering on a different level..its hard to let go but I no longer can keep everything. Motivating video
Thanks for a great motivational video! The change in seasons is such a good time to shift gears, and reset. Decluttering is top of the list for making that happen closely followed by a deep clean. Bless you ❤
Good, sound advice Hilary! I especially like the idea of hiding the "shortfall" items. I'm 65 and still defining my style! I need a revolving door and a permanent yard sale! Work/ Home/ Going Out clothing is ridiculous because I like patterns. And matching colors is hard. So I may have one top that only goes with one pr of pants. But they are a fave for fit, feel, comfort, so gotta keep. I have 3 dressers full. But one dresser is seasonal and has some bulky items. Glad to say in 5 months I'll retire and wow, will I have space! Ty for sharing!💕
Relatively new subscriber here… I really appreciate these videos. I feel like you have a very common sense approach to clutter and getting rid of things. Also many ways I have not looked at getting rid of stuff. I think you have a very good point about decluttering being a constant process. I think I always thought if I decluttered really well I wouldn’t have to do it again. I like the Idea of having a box in the closet for stuff to donate.
You are right about decluttering being a perpetual process! I have a donation box in my closet, too, and then I have a quarterly appointment in my planner to do a deep declutter every 3 months. Every time I fill multiple bags with donations- so crazy!
Fantasy items 🤣😂🤣😂 great definition of held on clothing. Im still laughing. I purged things I totally regret. I get over it thinking-knowing someone who bought it is enjoying it & was super excited when they found it. Great video encouraging too. Have a blessed weekend!
You have encouraged me again. This morning I am cutting cabbage heads out of my garden and make freezer coleslaw. I watched you video so know my second project is I bought 2 new blouses but today I will push my self to donate 6 items . Have a Blessed Day. Oh I stopped by The CBS and found a Work book for 2.99. Teaching on all the Books of the Bible and Quiz at the end of the Chapters. ❤
The greens look amazing. I’m using something similar….but maybe I will give it a try. Thanks for sharing it again. Happy for you to partner with great companies
Hillary I had a dear dear friend who in her 90s told me keep every thing, all fashion comes back around eventually. One day in 2012 she greeted me wearing a skirt she had worn the 1940s. It had a an expandable waistline. You could wear it when pregnant and cinch it when not. She wore it during her pregnancies or when she wasn’t pregnant. Anyway she looked like a million bucks all those many years later sporting that frock. Just wanted to share the story. She was a very wise woman in so many ways. I miss her a lot.
I’ve talked about it in precious videos if you’d like to search it out but I absolutely agree it’s such a wonderful event for any and every community ❤️
I need to get my decluttering done. I always throw away anything that is stained or torn that can't be fixed. Thanks for the tips. Your hair is so lovely and getting long. Take care 🧡🦊🧡
I used to as well, but then I heard that donation centers are better quipped to recycle worn fabrics. Also, a lot of moms have no problem taking the ripped knee things for their kids to play in outside, especially if it’s free. Normally I would just throw them away too but if anyone is able to use them I’d prefer to give them another chance.

@@OldWorldHome I don't have anyone left to give them to so I donate to the Salvation Army. We donate our kids clothes to others. My daughter takes hers to work and others with children can get what they want for free. I thought maybe quilters might want free clothes that weren't wearable. If jeans have a tear that's the style 😆 and I would even like that. Take care. 🧡🦊🧡
I’m decluttering now more than ever 🤣 excellent lots of bags lots of items to get rid of great job Hilary. So will you bring items back from the swap, love you too ! Millions!
Depends on the severity. What I’ve heard over the years is that some donation centers are better equipped to recycle worn fabrics Vs just tossing them in the trash, and also I’ve had friends tell me they don’t mind getting ripped knees and things at the swap for free so they can preserve their own nicer things longer and have some play options.
Free Swaps are Great!... always donate what you would take home yourself and clothe your own family with, so nothing stained or ripped... those items should be tossed or used for rags if possible.
Yes that is what I used to do, but then friends would tell me they didn’t mind getting worn clothes especially for free so they could use them as play clothes, and also I heard that donation centers are better equipped to recycle them versus me just putting them in the trash.
I won’t buy ‘word’ decor. I like my home to be peaceful and quiet; I don’t want my walls and throw pillows talking to me. 😁 On AG1 - although some might consider it a little pricey, when I think of all the money I’ve wasted on spoiled greens, fruits and vegetables, it’s well worth it! I still enjoy a nice sized salad most days and feel good that my morning AG1 covers me. Thank you, Hillary!
Yes fantasy items of (just in case) or (one day) items are real! 😅😊 mommas really have this hard. My hubby have some items of clothes that are 20years old! Me….I’ve had four kids and multiple seasons of life. 😅I’ve got to find my items and further purge the others….slowly but surely I’ll get to the 20% 😊
Great video! But, I’m totally lost- are you in your house? All I can think about is where is she at? Floor doesn’t look dark enough and the table behind you?
One thing I love to do is to go through my things, organize, and purge. I just enjoy that 🤷🏻♀️. Jacob said to Esau in Genesis 33:11, “because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough”. I enjoy what I have now, more than looking for what I don’t. BUT it’s still fun to go thrifting to look around and find something here and there. I am just in a new phase now as I am getting older 😊
I’m in that phase too! Our son recently moved out on his own. I’ve been redoing his room as well as decluttering our home. We were dropping things off at Goodwill the other day and my husband asked if I wanted to go in. I told him, No- we just dropped those things off and don’t need to bring more in! LOL.
@@jannier9766 Haha same here. No desire to go in anymore 😬🤷🏻♀️- I like collecting ephemera now- old photos and magazines to look through. But I have a spot for them to keep the collection under control. But it’s something I want to look at with my grandkids😍
I could really identify with this video - I'm always coming across things it's time to get rid of. I have the space to keep what I have but i no longer WANT to. :)
I used to toss it but then I heard that donation centers are able to recycle worn fabrics and also friends would say that they didn’t mind the worn things especially for free because they could use them as play clothes
Oh I would be embarrassed to donate damaged goods to the free swap....but that's just me..would love to see what you pick up...love your dress...oh just a quick how do u incorporate that drink into your intermittent fasting as it didn't feature in what you eat in a day.? ..or maybe I missed it...sorry for long question...
I have a lot to donate, just a few things were worn, and I used to just toss them. Then friends would say that they didn’t mind grabbing those worn things for free to use as play clothes. Also I’ve heard that donation centers are better equipped to handle worn fabrics and recycle them versus just tossing them in the trash. I drink the AG1 in the morning around 7-8 typically
It is very expensive. I think everyone should choose what they believe is best for them. Personally, I can’t afford that and I see it as “processed food” and I would rather get my nutrition from whole foods. But, I also respect other peoples opinions.
Lots of different ways to approach health. I don’t pay for a gym membership, workout clothes, other supplements, and I have no Dr. bills or prescriptions. Some people buy organic or grow their own food and some don’t. Lots of ways to approach a healthful life.
It's not great but it's by far the best greens drink I've ever tasted. I can actually finish it quickly...couldn't stomach any other ones to even finish a small glass.
I love your voice of reason. We live small and try to be minimal-ish and I love your approach in mindset.
Your skin and hair look amazing and I love the dress you're wearing. Thanks for the time and thoughtfulness you put into your videos! ❤
That’s very kind thank you, I appreciate you taking your time to watch 💞

Yes absolutely. We moved 5x in our first 5 years of marriage and it definitely puts things in perspective!

I try to think less about saying good bye and more about saying hello to a beautiful closet space and wardrobe I’m excited to wear 💞
You always give me a feel good mood, thanks for sharing
Love decluttering. And “ I donut care” …. Too funny. I donut like that pillow either 😂
I'm the same about stuff with words on them! I laughed out loud when you said it! And it seems so much decor has been saturated with "word" items.
Recently we cleaned out the garage--tossed junk and donated the better items. Clutter can be a "ball and chain." So nice not having to look at "stuff" and we DON'T miss a thing !!
Oh boy, I feel you on the shoes issue. I have 7 kids and it's like a full time job!! Not to mention how hard my boys are on everything!

I live in apartment and I declutter all the time. Right now I'm working on my wardrobe. Next it will be the living room. 😊
Bless you for donating all your things, it will help someone else. Your hair is so pretty. Thanks for sharing. Faye (Ohio)
Hilary , I received my Christmas planner today. And I love it. Thanks for creating it. It will make my holiday planning so much easier ❤
Oh I’m so glad you got it Valerie, enjoy!!

Got my holiday planners today. Love it! Thanks Hilary

Thank you, Hillary!! I LOVVVE this and totally needed it!!! I just love your posts!! :) Have a lovely weekend!! :)
Thank you Kellie!
Got me motivated
I am editing a decluttering video right now. 😂👏🏻 Your thought process was so on point, Hillary.👏🏻✨
It’s that time of year for sure! 🧡✨
Such good advise and said in a way I think will stick!
Thank you for another great video! Excellent advice!
Awesome video! De cluttering for selling at my kids consignment sale this weekend!
Hi Hillary, I admire your advise, decor ect.. However, I have a question. Do you donate stained and ripped clothes too? Or do you throw away?

Great video Hilary! Such good tips. There is some decluttering I really need to do in my basement 🤦🏻♀️😁. Have an awesome weekend. 🧡
Before I watch this I just wanted to say you look so beautiful 💛💛
Free Swaps are Great!... always donate what you would take home yourself and clothe your own family with, so nothing stained or ripped... those items should be tossed or used for rags if possible.

Will you make a video of the swap? That would be fun to see what others donate.
I might show clips ☺️
I'd like to see the swap also. What are some items from others donated and what items you choose to add to your home. TY

Hi Hilary, how is the taste of the greens?
It’s pretty fruity actually, to me it tastes like bubble gum.

Weave new elastic
I don’t get why you donate (rather than just throw out) items with worn out knees or elastic that’s shot. Do people use for quilts?
I used to toss it but then I heard that donation centers are able to recycle worn fabrics and also friends would say that they didn’t mind the worn things especially for free because they could use them as play clothes

Hilary, have you ever wanted something on FB Marketplace, only to lose it to someone else? Feeling "sulky".
Oh definitely, but I’ve found that something better usually comes along ❤️
Once I decided it was okay to part with unwanted gifts from loved ones I never looked back.

I don’t do most decor with words and brands. I read everything and I don’t like seeing advertisements all over my house😊

I have made my own veggie juices using a juicer. They don’t look very pretty, but are very tasty.
