As someone with crazy ADHD, I swear that decluttering really does change your life friends! When I learned how important cleaning was in the Japanese and Buddhist cultures, I did a deep declutter over 30 days as well! Now I clean about 15 minutes before every morning to really keep my peace and allow for my most efficient and intuitive moments throughout the day. I definitely recommend trying to incorporate this for all my neurodivergent folks and everyone looking to add a helpful habit to their morning routine. Much love friends. - Maha
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I also have adhd and i've reached a breaking point with my mess so i've been slowly decluttering but have a long ways to go. staying organized has always been a weak spot for me but i've gotten rid of a few boxes of things and i already feel so much lighter and my mind is clearer (which is invaluable for us ND ppl!)
@@anna20812 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 good for you!!
@@anna20812 I very much feel this! Everyday it feels like I have to reclaim every moment of my time. Like somehow my room becomes a mess still by the end of day and if I go a day or two without cleaning….sheesh. But I try to write every intention for the day down, then input it into this app called structured which helps keeps me accountable, and allow that to guide me. I also did a video on my page on reclaiming my time and energy, which includes a good morning routine as well. So hopefully one of these things can also be of assistance to you as well friend! :)
I was about to comment the exact same thing!❤
The tip about not going in chronological order is *gamechanging*, holy crap haha. I never thought about it that way, and I always struggle with the challenges because I don't like holding myself back to only get rid of one or two things when I'm excited and motivated, and then I eventually fall off and don't get to the days with larger decluttering numbers. I'm definitely trying this again, but picking whichever numbers suit my energy levels and time available each day!
+
Totally agree.. Game changer 😁
Yes! This! Thinking outside of the box. It never dawned on me.
🙌🏼
Yeah I thought that was great too!
Everyone please remember that you DONT need to get rid of things for the sake of decluttering. Don't create more waste than necessary. Only give away items you truly don't need or see any value in keeping anymore
THIS! If you feel motivated to declutter, please be responsible and donate items where possible!
@@Whimsicalwoods9 since about 80% of everything that gets donated doesn't even make it onto the thrift store's floor, try selling things or giving away on a buy nothing group (there's local groups on Facebook and an app that's not attached to fb for non-meta people)
This is valid but also, if you are like me and have hoarding dragon tendencies, THIS COMMENT IS NOT FOR YOU!!!! Do not keep that empty glass bottle just to save the environment. If you’re not using it ,It’s still trash, you’re just living in it.
This video is a breath of fresh air in this crazy tiktok consumerism era! There’s a new trend every week and so many “unmissable” products that are just as good as any other thing you’ve seen before. Realising that we don’t need more things is so liberating sometimes! Thanks for the amazing video ❤️
There isn't really a "tik tok consumerism era" lol
Consumerism has existed long before tik tok it's just shown online now.
And it's probably not an "era" you just watched too many of those and that's why you got more of those recommended i.e think that it just happened recently.
Just telling you that because it's important to know that our social media consumption and what we see is bias and does not reflect reality per se.
No hate at all
Take care ^^
@@unknowns78 i can agree with most of this. However, tiktok as certainly not helped with all of its micro-trends, and an algorithm that pushes them, along with the influx in awful fast fashion companies made popular by the app (think shein and temu), which certainly influences people more than if the app did not exist at all.
I gotta be honest that it's your algorithm/what you consume. My FYP has stuff that is basically decluttering because that's what I interact with more than anything. If yours has consumerist stuff...maybe (even though you're expressing a dissenting opinion) you're interacting with the media enough for the algorithm to be convinced you actually like this stuff. I also get a ton of healthy recipes and mocktail recipes and cute animals. Because that's what I interact with. Just be aware of that :D
leah's mins game tips!
1) make a cute tracker
2) go in the order that makes the most sense for you (forgo chronology)
3) split your room or house into smaller chunks
4) digital clutter
5) do two sweeps (of the same items/area) a few weeks apart
6) clothing + jewlery: is this a trend or do i see myself wearing/using this for the next ~10 years? how often would i wear it?
7) does this item significantly improve my life?
8) would i notice if this object went missing? (like the mins rule of "if you don't know you have it, get rid of it")
9) would i own this if i lived in a shared economy?
10) mirror motivation or go on a walk
11) know that you will feel stuck! have a little snack, go take a shower, take a breath, etc.
Thank you so much for this summary! ❤
My mind constantly goes between "i have too much stuff, it's overwhelming, i need to get rid of everything" to "i want to buy all these silly little things to make my silly little brain feel better" 😅
But i know that the real problem is living with my grandma in a room full of stuff that's not mine. I like watching videos like this to not lose hope that someday my living situation will be better and i'll be able to have my own space without another people's things 🥰
Same here. It is frustrating to see your house is till full of stuff but you have already decluttered a lot
Wishing you all the best ❤
I live with another person as well & they full on refuse to get rid of alot of their stuff. And it's causing us both alot of stress.
I live with a hoarder so I get this
I listened to the audio book the life changing magic of tidying up while I’m on the shower. Finished it after 5 showers I think. After that I got myself a Kindle and got rid of all my books and kept 3 faves. I burned all my journals cause I feel like I wouldn’t ever wanna look back of the things I’ve written. I got rid of 90% of my clothing and things that don’t serve me. It felt so easy to let go of the items that has sentimental values on it that I struggled to let go of. A few days after I decluttered I cried so hard not because of the things I’ve gotten rid of. I think it’s because all the clutter, and me putting off organizing are all gone. I can face my real demons now without all these distractions. I think decluttering put me in a better place than I was before.
this gives me more inspiration to just go for it and get rid of most of my stuff. I've been trying to muster the ability to declutter bc of sentimental value and overwhelm. but you are absolutely right in that a chaotic and cluttered environment takes up so much more of our energy, anxiety, and attention than we think. i really need that mental clarity. i'm just gonna do it!
@@anna20812good luck!
Wow. Powerful. Love this…
loved the part about being gentle and not putting too much pressure on yourself to reach your "ideal state of minimalism". 🌼
This is an awesome idea. I’ve tried 30 Day Challenges before but motivation goes in peaks and troughs. No idea why it’s never occurred to me to just do a different day if my motivation isn’t where I want it to be. My brain would refuse to Do The Thing and would then say “Well? You failed your challenge.” As odd as it sounds, thank you for finding this loophole and reminding us all that perfect is the enemy of good.
Aww I was totally like that before too with everything in life!! But then I realised so much of the pressure is self imposed and it doesn’t really matter the order of what we do in life haha
Yes. End result is the same. And we can make our own rules. I never thought of it 😂.
I’ve been slowly decluttering for almost 3 years now and it feels SO good!! Something that doesn’t get brought up enough about decluttering is to make sure you’re not replacing it all with new/different things 🙂
Yep I started in year 2014 when father moved on. Started again today. 1 closet today is a big step in the right direction.
30 Day Tracker now available on www.friendlybureau.com :)
Literally a min later
Aaaaaaaaa
Super excited!
hiiiii
LOVED this and am so inspired. I don't see the tracker on your site yet, or am I missing it? Thanks! :)
where do I find the tracker? Didn't see it on your website :/
Your thoughts about not letting your current space dictate your mindset was very helpful. I’m currently moving my little sister out of our abusive childhood home to live with me and my fiancé in our tiny, two bedroom apartment. The chaos and constant reminder of STUFF is making my already stressful situation feel unbearable, but I know that this feeling is temporary. Thank you for this beautiful, well-edited, and thoughtful video :)
aww Josie you’re such an incredible and strong sister 🥺🤍 yes it’s just temporary but I’m sure so challenging but you’ll look back feeling so proud of what you’ve accomplished! you’re amazing! Sending u lots of love 💕
You are doing such a wonderful thing for your sister 🤍
Can we just talk about the quality of the editing?? Amazing work!!
Thank u!!!
frl it's AMAZING
I love how your decluttering is informed by the world you want to live in - a shared and circular economy. Even i felt lighter after seeing your room at the end! I also really appreciated your comments about having the energy to create that change in your space and being centered within yourself - that being more important than the external conditions. 💚
What I absolutely loved about this video is that, first of all you didn’t do this declutter because of the “aesthetics” but because of the past year you found that you liked living with less. And also the gentle kindness to yourself. I am a new viewer to your channel, and I am absolutely loving your video’s. Thank you for inspiring me! And keep being yourself ❤️
Your note about not allowing your external environment to dictate the peace within you is so lovely. I share a room with my sis and I have a pretty cluttered home, and I don't live in a stable household. On top of that I'm ND so thank you sm for that. Wishing marvelous and wonderful things to happen for you or anyone reading this
You may have heard of the earthquakes in Turkey. We lost 44,000 people so far. My family and I were not harmed in the earthquakes. The day we got the first news, everyone started collecting donations: money aid, diapers, wet wipes, sanitary pads. During this whole process, apart from feeling intense sadness, I also questioned life. What was important in life? Before the earthquake, I had dreams for 2023, for example, what would I get myself and my family with my first salary? I realized that we think that buying something will make our lives better and give us happiness. Better cars, more expensive furniture, etc. However, the time we spend with our loved ones gives us real happiness, and only these memories are meaningful before death. We only think about our experiences and the people we love. That's why we should spend our money on experiences, not things.💙
Thank you for inspiring Leah
❤️🫂 you are so immensely strong, my heart goes out to you and everywhere whose facing this heartbreak 😔 I hope I can give u a big hug in person one day
@@leahsfieldnotes Despite the distance between us, I felt your embrace. Thank you 🥺💙Let's keep walking and searching on the journey of life...
I've been feeling very stuck lately, having to help with caring for an elderly family member, and not being able to do a lot of the things that I would like. This came at a perfect time. Thank you for sharing your tips with us, Leah, especially the one about not doing it chronologically, it makes so much sense!
💖❤ take care of yourself as a caregiver. Give yourself a warm tea alone everyday
i come back to this video every couple of months, to watch and take a breather, and to imagine a less cluttered life. im a multi-disciplinarily disabled individual, living with roommates (and my 17-year-old cat), in a very expensive town that i do not have the resources to move out of. it wasn't always this way, this expensive. but it is now, and i feel the effects in multiple ways--my head, my heart, my slowly dwindling savings as i struggle to cover even the essentials on my extremely limited income. im constantly overwhelmed these days, and worry about things not getting better.
but this video is a breath of fresh air. and as i look around my room, one of several spaces in the house completely overrun by Stuff, i know i need a change. your external environment doesnt HAVE to affect your internal one, but for me...i think it very much does. i am into maximalism, but...what i am doing is not artful and colourful and beautiful, which is what i love about maximalism. it is coming dangerously close to hoarding (but not the disorder, just the act of stockpiling things that you dont need, and a LOT of things, at that).
i have very bad and unmedicated adhd (i would never call anyone's adhd bad. except mine. mine is terrible) and spent a significant number of years in fairly extreme poverty (we always had a roof, which i recognise as a huge privilege, but food, essentials, menstrual products, and other things were scarce). this affected me deeply, and now i hold onto almost EVERYTHING that i could imagine has a conceivable use to me, at some imagined point in the future. or i hold onto things for aesthetic reasons, but never use them. another imagined point in the future, where i have my own house to decorate as i please.
but things cant go on this way. enoughs enough. tomorrow, im going to start this challenge. and i am going to do my best to see it through. non-chronologically, with grace, support, and sympathy for myself. thanks to you, Leah. thank you for this.
She's literally the only person I can watch over and over again without getting bored or tired 💖 you inspire me sm w my channel 💖🥰🍓♥️♥️🥰♥️🥰🥰

You want real help for you soul? - then look up into the heavens and cry ABBA FATHER.
Romans 8:15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
Psalms 55:16 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me. Psalms 18:3 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Every time we are after rich and fame, these questions should we ask from ourselves:
Mark 8:36
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
Luke 9:25
For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
Matthew 16:26
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Ecclesiastes 1:3
What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?
If one listens some of the interview of the celebs, then they all have admitted that they become vessels for demonic spirits. It all comes down to these 2 questions: have we eyes which see and ears which hear or are our eyes and ears closed?

If this item was stolen, would it hurt me?
I accidentally found Leah’s channel about two months ago and rn i’m watching this video realising how much her content has changed my life) It doesn’t happen just in one day, just the positive vibes of the videos, their meanings and Leah’s pure energy - make me feel so much better and happier about my life as well! So happy to see such a creative person on this platform, there are many of them, but you are special to us!
AWWWW I’m so honoured ! Thank u 😭🫂🤍
@@leahsfieldnotes omg I love you 💗🌟
I like the idea of the Kon Mari method, decluttering in categories instead. Honestly, for me just the decluttering part is not always the most stressful and overwhelming part but what to do with it and actually getting rid of the stuff I have decluttered is the main problem for me and therefore I procrastinate the decluttering part from the begining haha.
Same here, what do you do with it?
I think I may give this challenge a go. I did a huge declutter last year but new things deep creeping into my room. I agree that we keep things for sentimentality. I have my journals which I write in everyday, photo albums, reading journals and sketchbooks. I recently went to a concert and took no pictures or videos and I have the memories and I actually got to enjoy myself. I want to live more like that so doing this challenge will help I think.
Decluttering EVERYTHING in your life is AWESOME! It is a shedding mentally and physically...Great for you!!
I can literally watch you talk all day. You bring calmness and peace to me, Leah! ❤
This might be a TMI - I can't wait to move out and have a clean space. My grandmother is a hoarder and it disgusts me whenever I go by some of her stuff - they are NOT trash! She just has too much that I feel suffocated when I see them. I am excited to own a space for myself and not worry about someone else adding clutter, and disturbing my peace. I have severe ADHD and it is not good for me mentally as well.
I live in a hoarder household as well-I feel you, the sheer amount of stuff stresses me out and significantly increases my anxiety. I was a weirdly organized kid because of it, and even as a now adult I hate mess. My room is the cleanest in the entire two story house and I still feel like I have too many things. Excited to move out though lol ❤
I'm so impressed by everyone who does this 30 days challenge. I was extremely sentimental about EVERYTHING I had, and had to ease myself into letting things go - first mentally, then eventually physically. It's taken about 5 years to get to a point where I'm pretty much done decluttering big amounts. Now it's just a few things every now and then. I'm so glad I don't stress over stuff as much anymore as I used to!
Btw, love the vibe in this video!
That’s so amazing!! I think it’s also been a much longer journey of un attachment as this video shows :) kudos to u!
this will definitely be my goal for march!! im always so inspired by how much u are able to enjoy life with such a lack of stuff i truly admire how non-materialistic u are and quite honestly am working towards that everyday :)
not just the vibes of the vlog but just by watching you do the things you love and enjoy a lot feels so calming and comforting i am so happy for u ☹️🫂❤️
This is SO inspiring. As someone who did this in chronological order years ago when I first started my decluttering journey, it was extremely overwhelming. This inspired me to do another one of these with some modifications! Thank you for sharing your experience ❤
rewatching this because, this whole month is so overwhelming and i needed some motivation to get unnecessary things out of my way. i dont even know where the clutter is coming from. 😂 also leah's videos are so soothing that even my mind clears as well. i feel mentally refreshed just watching this.
Thank you so much for sharing ☺️✨ I had a similar experience after doing half a year of studying abroad. I noticed how happy it made me to have a limited amount of favorite clothing pieces and stationery items to choose from. It felt so freeing to not have limitless options and made it so much more enjoyable to actually use and appreciate the items I did take with me. After coming back I decluttered a few times and I've been feeling a lot more comfortable in my flat since then.
I also 100% agree that it's a rough sentiment that you need to declutter around yourself to feel alright. It would sure help, but there were a lot of times in my life when I would have loved to declutter but didn't have the health and physical energy available to. It became so doable once I felt a bit better.
It helps soooo much! Just by decluttering my kitchen and maintaining it organized was a big step. In order to progress in your goals, it starts with the basic things such as how we live and what we keep around us. That's why as an oil painter I do my best to not create clutter and get creative with the tools I already have.
I would love a follow up on how you feel about it now, does it change your perspective when buying new things? How do you feel when your in your spaces? Do you regret any of the things you let go? Has it impacted your mood?
I love your channel and how honest and refreshing you are. When I was thinking about starting my channel, I was thinking I just want to be like you. Even though I’m probably much older, my channel talks about Hollywood law but if I ever start another channel. I would model it after yours. You live such an honest, and thoughtful life. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Love seeing another Asian female being creative and courageous. ❤❤
omg that’s so badass!!! gonna go check out your videos 🤩 I have zero law knowledge, I’m ready to be educated
@@leahsfieldnotes omg. Thanks for responding! I’ve been such a fan! I put away my dream of being a novelist 20 years ago. As an immigrant with parents who still don’t speak much English I went to law school to take care of them and it’s been great, but I recently picked up my dream of being a storyteller by starting my UA-cam channel channel 4 months ago and I am at almost 20,000 subscribers. It takes so long. It is such a long and lonely journey sometimes being a YT creator. I always want to give up. I film at night usually around midnight or 1AM after my kids go to sleep. But I’ve never loved anything as much as this, so thank you for leading the way. ❤️❤️
Ahhh you’re so amazing! I love how you make a subject I thought I had no interest in or capacity to understand feel so approachable and entertaining! Cheering you on!!! 🎉
this was so,,,, encouraging??? and delightful????? and had some really helpful advice??????? i have severe ADHD (inattentive) and i will be watching this over and over again and taking notes and making sure that im absorbing this. thank you leah for sharing your journey and advice!!
not even a minute after i clicked this video and yet your words hit right through the core. i appreciate you sm, leah. thank you for these kind of content 🍃✨
at the very beginning where you say how you went through every single item - i recently had to move countries to stay safe, so i had to do the same since i couldn't bring everything. i already don't actually have a lot of things, but getting to sit down and slowly poke through the remaining ones and decode whether i need them or not, whether they even fit where i go, it was hella scary, but hella rewarding. i now know that i have a very compact list of items i'd consider necessary, and it counts the ones i don't really need but just like a lot :)
This is the best 3 day challenge video I have seen. From the tips you gave to the way you filmed and edited the process you went through - it was wonderful! Seeing your struggles and success has motivated me to finally commit to trying this min game. Thank you!
Started today with My Son, He closed His eyes n pointed to one and it was 29! Ha Was a bit overwhelmed looking at it, but it took us no longer than 10 mins to find 29 things! Thank You for Sharing!!
one of the reasons why i keep buying stuff is to cope with loneliness. thanks for the video leah, 🥺 i should try to appreciate the stuff before jumping on the endless bandwagon of trends
That was so inspiring - just cleaned my room and donated 45 items of clothes and 20 books because of you. My room feels so much lighter. Thank youuuuu!
Awww yay!!!
I appreciate all your contribution to making our hearts feel lighter ❤❤
I love how the decluttering you did was a "game"! I totally want to use this method. I'll be moving soon and I know there is a lot I could get rid of to make the load lighter. Thanks for sharing! ❤️
Leah I don't think you realize how much your words can touch and grace souls. I just realized, I've given into the society perspective that a dirty home means a frazzled mind. I've fed into those thoughts and negative narrative to my own being. Thank you for your kind words of love
You are so beautiful, confident and have a lot of energy. I so admire you
The green sheer dress is so pretty & looks so good on u though omg
its probably my unstable life and just now reaching a point where I am in one spot for more than 2 years, but I just never understood the attachment to any particular item. I’m glad you’ve reached a sense of airiness :) welcome to this light side of life
Also FOREVER GRATEFUL to you Leah for inspiring me to start my own channel to document my spiritual + self-love journey and hopefully inspire others as well! Much love to you and everyone else who supports you!
Wow, this was sooo relaxing. Your voice, choice of music, editing, aesthetic! *chefs kiss*
I love your message at the end, I hope everyone who watched listened to that part before moving on from the video. Great work all around!
I decluttered my stuff by Konmari method. It took me 3 days to organize everything but that's because I haven't much things to begin with (most of them were in the attic). I clean really often, I just love it! ❤
We wish you all the best, Leah. Seems like you're turning over a new chapter in your life. We will support you no matter what.
Leah i have followed you for a while & you inspired me to start my own youtube channel! Recently i found out my ex-boyfriend was cheating on me & have started to document my healing journey inspired by your navigating break up videos. I wish i could edit as well as you. Thank you for being you ❤
My dad collects rocks. He's an avid backpacker and has rocks from all over the country. He keeps them in cool bowls all around the house and polishes them once a month. He loves them and sometimes even rocks can be meaningful!
This video came at such a perfect time! I love the idea of turning it into a "game" and how you chose not to do it chronologically. I've been trying to downsize and live a more minimalist lifestyle in 2023, I'll definitely try this before the end of the year. The point you made of asking yourself if that item is something you'll actually miss is so important! I think a lot of us (myself included) hang on to things out of sentiment or on the off-chance that we'll use it in the future...but then years will go by and we haven't even taken it out.
If there's anything I've learned in the past few years, it's that the more stuff I have, the more overwhelmed I feel. When I first started college, I was able to pack everything I owned in 2-3 large boxes. By the end of my undergrad, I had enough stuff to fill two cars. Granted, I did move from a dorm to an apartment but you don't realize how much stuff you accumulate over the years until you actually pack it up. In the age of social media where overconsumption is encouraged, it's good to be conscious of what we actually need vs. the onslaught of what we're told will "make us happy."
Absolutely love how you did this challenge and how you presented it in this video!
"memories are kept in my noggin not the things I've collected" can't agree more
I’m going to be moving soon and I could totally use some tips from this!! The vibes in this video were so cute!! Thank you for the motivation Leah !
I really loved your bit about the circular economy. A lot of videos of this sort are so focused on increasing productivity, and I just think there's more to life than working, you know? I'm gonna check out more of your videos! :)
Lovely to meet you. I started decluttering 1 room WITHOUT a plan on paper in the home-
Decluttering Makes a big difference. Mental health improves.
We have enough winter and Summer clothes and footwear to last us for years so NO NEED to buy more.
Aside from the always high quality production and the chef's kiss edit, can we talk about Leah in glasses??! She looks gorgeous. 6:17
I've been sulking about cleaning my room lately and this just gave me the motivation to get started
Yayyy u got this!!!
hi leah!
currently watching some bugs living in the weeds of my backyard and felt inspired to comment a random thought that’s been circling in my head. When I get more anxious about my future (continuing school, work, having money, etc), the idea of a slow simple life on a farm seems all the more appealing. I’m hoping I can soon experience the slow life with people I enjoy. That’s all.. have a nice day :>
more glow up diary series please. the last one about cozy habits healed my mental state.
CIRCULAR ECONOMY YESS!! love it, you bring the socio-economic perspective missing in some of these minimalist decluttering videos.
okay okay i immediately had to kind of copy the ‘coloring in days calendar’ that’s such a cute thing😍 i’m just going to use it for a little different thing now in march but its all about the mental health. thank youuu
i have wor in 5 hours but I this is so worth it. you're such a light in this world
awww thank u 🥹 have a good day at work!!
What a great video, Leah. I always look forward to whatever you share. Never not inspired by you. My love for filming and editing grew so much because of your videos. I aspire to be as creative as you
2:23 brilliant idea! start with larger number, to reward you the smaller number the next day!
I have ADHD, watching these videos pushed me so much to declutter that within a week I had gotten rid of most of my stuff, and soon I plan on going even further.
I've got half a mind to try this. I'm by no means, a fan of the modern 'minimalism' aesthetic, since those bleak rooms always seem so cold and sterile to me. But I have been getting into the bad habit of obtaining Useless Clutter, and I feel like this game-ified version of cleaning up will help me get a handle of the space around me :D
so so calming! the editing was 11/10 :-)
oh yes i waited for this video so long because you mentioned about it in the other video
Wow, I've only found you this year and you're already one of my favourite UA-cam channels to watch!
😭 thank you sweet little library mouse ily 📚 🐁
@@leahsfieldnotes MWAH! I LOVE YOU TOO SIS!
thank you for doing what you do Leah! honestly you give me so much hope to improve my life and work on myself ❤
Always watching in full screen mode, because... why not? 🥰 Just finished the sleepover episode, and now another video to watch. Thanks for spoiling us! P.S WE MISSED YOU!!!🌸🌸🌸
I also like to add a space on my chart to jot down how much money I made selling the items :D some stuff is donated, swapped, or trashed, but it's nice to keep track of how much money can be made off of stuff you don't even use
leah, thank you for being so… calming. i always have a new energy to do stuff after watching your videos, you can be such an inspiration sometimes! you’re like a friend that is telling me „everything will be okay” :)
I just want to say I am happy I spend those 11 minutes and 16 seconds watching your video, I feel better now weirdly, I want to try this challenge too. I will look at when is the best moment to do so. Thank you Leah, have a wonderful day you sweet and cool human being 🥰
"I am my own true source of happiness." That's beautiful
i was just sitting here watching your old videos for motivation and then poof right on time!!! you always make my day better thank you 💞
you’ll forever be my comfort youtuber ever🥺 i feel at peace when i watch your videos! please keep creating content ily
awww ily 😭🤍
I have to unexpectedly move out within a month and I’m a huge sentimental collector and lover of things but keeping everything would be too much so this video and challenge is helping me reframe my connection to my things :))
Thanks for this, it really helped me clean out my closets and wardrobe when I did it a couple months ago. It was so rewarding I decided to do another one for the rest of the year with a more leisurely pace.
can i just say the quality, editing and the whole thought process for this video is just top notch?! anyways, decluttering has always been on my list & this might just be the right video for me. ty for sharing this and decluttering lfg!!
you’re literally the only person that i can watch anything and everything that u upload. thanks a lot for existing 💓
This was lovely❤ I’m moving to a new city next month. I was feeling very overwhelmed by the clutter I have collected in the past 10 years or so, as an ADHDer with a passion for crafting it has taken over several rooms in my place. I’ll attempt doing this method. It will make the moving out much easier to know my stuff can be used and cared by others. Wish me luck!
Binge watching you lately
You feel so comfortable and safe
You are such a lovely person
Love love😭❤️
Best topic to discuss!! It motivates so much🥺 I feel very touched almost at the end of each your video, I would almost cry from how it can be cute and kind and encouraging..
you're my comfort youtuber and this video is so calming and inspiring! ily
this was actually so helpful. i have severe anxiety and ocd so this made me feel much better in my own space. content like this means alot to a good amount of people 👍
watching you in the morning when I'm making breakfast and drinking coffee is the most calming part of my day
The nice video which can help everybody to declutter stuff in their rooms. There are many advises and life-hacks so everyone can find something motivating and useful.
Perfect timing for me to watch this informative/lovely video! Thank you! I just emptied my 2 closets and put everything in the living room. I wanted to cry ~ of embarrassment. Putting a HOUSE FOR SALE sign on the front door was an option. Trying your 30 days of decluttering might be more reasonable. Sailing over the "I can't!" hurdles is oddly exciting. I think this is going to be a life changer for me, at age 61.
I’m 16 and currently have a lot of stuff I genuinely don’t need. I’ve been struggling to get rid of them! Thankfully I came across this video which helps so much! Now I know where to start and how to make it fun.
I noticed that I don’t like having a lot of things. Because when I have a lot of things in my room it’s hard for me to keep the place clean.
This strategy helps because now I don’t have to spend hours decluttering.
get into the habit now! i was better about it living at home in a small room because i didnt get spending money from my parents, but now that im 21 with my own place and actual money to spend, i hoard like a MOFO.
I was literally writing notes and reflecting on what I need to do as you were talking! Thank you for making this video so simple and easy! 💕🙌🏾
Nice video :) it found me at a good time, because I am trying to overcome my hoarding. I attach sentimental value to almost everything, but having this much stuff makes me feel overwhelmed and stressed in my own room which should be my peace. I've been struggling trying to create a space that reflects the person I am right now, and not every version of me over the past 20 years. This video was helpful, so thanks! ^_^
if your even feeling down, you could re-create the catfish/glow up challange you did about 3 years ago, i really enjoyed that vid.
i love your editing sm btw, its so aestheticly pleasing and looks like its done with so much care :)
1:58 you’re such a bundle of joy leah 😭
keep slaying yass. also im so distracted by how pretty you are throughout the video ❤️😂
