Tracy, great progress! You've proven that the "onion" method of decluttering works. By making repeated passes over the same space over a period of time, we get rid of things at a pace we are comfortable with - it's like peeling an onion. Though I've seen you be pretty ruthless a time or two! 😎
Thank you! It definitely has taken layers & time. I noticed that some items take multiple passes before I’ve been ready to let them go. I was looking around today though & was astonished at how much STILL needs to be done🥵 It’s a work in progress😎
Tracy - you are NOT “gross”. Please do NOT underestimate the POSITIVITY you have and how you’ve inspired ME. My marathon continues, thanks to your wisdom. Please stay with us -we need you!!
My husband and I have lived in our home for 19 years and we are still decluttering. He finally went through the garage and got rid of alot of garbage and junk. He has a lot of tools and nuts and bolts because he does do home improvement projects so he does reuse things. My stuff is home decor, especially Christmas and Halloween. I'm slowly downsizing and it feels good to unload items to thrift stores. Keep up the good work.
Thank you🙂It’s not an easy thing to do always, that’s for sure but so worth it! There’s still plenty to do but seeing how far I’ve come really helps with the motivation 🤩
Thank you! I’m more motivated than ever! Have a whole bunch of projects I want to tackle (& there is ALWAYS stuff to clean🥵). It’s great to be in the flow again🤩
I've been watching you for several months and I'm so proud of you. I consider myself a minimalist, except for my sewing supplies, and I still have stuff to declutter every week. Keep up the great work! 😃😃😃
The clutter feels endless, especially with all the art supplies, but I have donated a LOT to my childhood art teacher. Thank you so much for watching & supporting me☺️ I’m really motivated to clean, clean, clean! LOL
So glad to hear you say you're proud of yourself. You have done an amazing job. Some people say they are doing it, but you can kind of tell they are doing more of a churn, which is fine if that's where they are at, but you're truly doing it and keeping yourself accountable. You got this, you're amazing!
Wow I forgot !! You should be very proud of yourself. As you say even messy it looks great. You have come so far!! I can picture your back yard with every pot painted different colors and stacked with pretty flowers in them 😍 Wow there's no words how much joy I feel for you. You come so far 💝
Thank you!!! The garden is a wish-list project that I definitely want to do😍I had forgotten how nuts everything was in the beginning. DO MUCH STUFF!!!!🥵I’m super motivated to keep going now though! It was great to revisit the old footage!
Am sure you forgot how well you have done. We are are worst enemy. But remember how great you have done. Am sure you have helped other's. There is days we all have to push are selfs. Keep it up your doing great
When you say you are contemplating where to start in an area you're decluttering or cleaning Try one tip two of my favorite UA-camrs use First thing:: with an empty trash bag in your hand, first thing you do is pick up the obvious trash It is the simple technique I use to get Myself started when I am overwhelmed Get the trashes bagged up It usually gives me a big jump start ❤❤❤❤❤ Great job you did today in your kitchen ❤❤❤❤
Mahalo, Tracy, for being so REAL! I’ve started downsizing big time because life is so much easier without all this extra “stuff”! We are warriors, girl!
Thank you! Still have LOTS to do! I was looking around and it seems like there are going to be endless videos coming because there’s so much to still declutter, organize & fix up! 😎
So proud for you dear Tracy !!! You did an amazing job and although it really has been really bad in the beginning you've come a loooooooooong way to better yourself alone!!! Kudos for all your hard hard work.🙌🙌❤❤🎈🎈 Love from Greece
Tracy, you have come so far in just one year!! Keep going! I have just started to tackle another closet of art supplies. I haven't really dug into this closet in a looonngg time! Stuff is starting to leave my house! We're in this together!
When I saw your first videos, I was wondering how far you could improve your house because to be honest at times I was even desperate but seeing how far you've come is amazing!! I'm so happy for you :)
You have lots to celebrate - the change from a year ago is amazing It would be so easy to feel overwhelmed and stop but you have soldiered through. I am looking forward to seeing more of your and Tina's journey
That was a brilliant video! What a treat to see footage that wasn't in the originals 🤩 I really really love your music choices too xxx you have worked so hard and been so honest all the time. Looking forward to all your future videos too xxx 💕
Thank you!!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it😍I’m so much more motivated to keep going after seeing how far I’ve come🤩Keep an eye out for a new video on Saturday ☺️
I am so happy for you. This is truly amazing to watch how far you have come. And Tina, I applaud you for bringing humor and Toughlove to the channel, and a little bit of glitter! I have really missed your videos. Keep them coming! I need to go into my puppet workshop area and do a second wave of decluttering. Things have started to creep out of the bins and into piles. I would love it if you did a video in a certain area that you already decluttered to do a “second wave” of decluttering. I think this will be very motivating for me! I need Tina to come to my house.💕
Thank you!!! I’m so motivated to keep going after watching all that old footage. I also realized how much I still have to do! Lots of videos coming your way😃I’m gearing up to film something to post on Saturday 🤩See you soon!
😆 You’re my tribe! I know my videos don’t quite fit the decluttering/cleaning “niche” style but I was just telling someone that I’ve got to be authentic to who I am & what I’m capable of & there is an audience for that I’m sure. My tribe will find me. WELCOME!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Right?!?? Such a year! So much more to still do but I’m more motivated than ever💖 I’m rather shocked I kept up with it all for a year already! (Including making videos! I thought I’d fizz out after a month or 2😆). Thank you so much for all your support💖
She really has evolved! As I looked back at the early footage of her I realized what a pain in “Tracy’s” rear she was! LOL. I’m so glad I put her to work and that she’s so useful now😆Thank you so much for all your support💖
Thank you!!! It’s rarely easy but so worth it! That really motivated me to keep going because I realized just how far I really did come! Thank you agsin💖☺️
Looking back at all of the progress you made I know that you are proud of yourself! You are doing amazing! I've been here with you and I am cheering for you!
Thank you so much! I appreciate your support & all the commenting you do💖💖💖 I truly mean it when I said I couldn’t have done this without you all! Starting this UA-cam channel was the best thing I ever could have done for myself ☺️ I still have things to declutter & messes/dirt to clean but I am more motivated than ever!
I watched all your videos. You really did a fantastic job. Especially for those who can relate. Rome wasn't built in a day and you were so entertaining 😊❤. You helped yourself and others I have no doubt. Keep it up 🤗❤
Thank you! 🤩 I really appreciate the support💖 I still have a ways to go in all of it but am more motivated than ever! I really surprised myself at how far I’ve come😃I would’ve liked the house to be cleaned up before I did the tour but I wanted it to be 100% authentic to what it was that day. Real deal…I’ll clean it up in my upcoming videos🙂
So nice to hear you give yourself credit 😊 we’re proud of you too! There’s *always* going to be something needing done, for anyone. Doesn’t take away from the huge strides and improvements you’ve made. Take a bow! 🏆
Thank you! It’s easy to forget about how one started so it was really good to go back & reflect on things. Hard to believe how much ton-age of stuff I had!!! Still have more to do & keeping neat/clean is always a challenge but I am more motivated than ever!
The show hoarders rushes people too hard. I’ve learned a lot from The Hoarders Heart You Tube channel. She was a level four hoarder with ADHD. She talks a lot about her process and she kind of makes decluttering fun. She explains why she only tackles small sections at a time because her anxiety gets too high and makes her less willing to part with things. You’re making great progress. New subscriber here.
Thank you & welcome to my channel! I have ADHD too & its been on fire this week. I’m going to talk a bit about it in the upcoming video because it’s not allowing me to ignore it😬
Thank you! It’s STILL a journey, lol. I’ve still got things to declutter & good habits to form but man, looking back makes me appreciate how far I actually have come.
I want to declutter so bad and I'm working on it because I am a minimalist at heart but I'm having it hard time being that and an artist at the same time I really want to find someone who is also decluttering so we can trade some of the things that I need and some of the things that she needs and we can swap but not gathering more stuff it's hard to understand maybe I should just go ahead and declutter it I don't know we need a lot of prayers.
The struggle is real for me as an artist too! Not only is it hard to declutter art supplies but it’s a real challenge to stay neat & tidy with all the art projects I always have going on🫣
Tracy, great progress! You've proven that the "onion" method of decluttering works. By making repeated passes over the same space over a period of time, we get rid of things at a pace we are comfortable with - it's like peeling an onion. Though I've seen you be pretty ruthless a time or two! 😎

Thank you Tracy, you inspired me not to procrastinate, and fold and put away two loads of laundry while watching this video 🤗
Yay!🥳 I’m glad to know that my vid helped you💖
You’re amazing ❤
You have done such a great job. Accomplished so much in the last year. You keep it real. ❤
Thank you! So much still to do but after revisiting the old footage I’m reinvigorated!
You have done the work that so many others are reluctant to do. Enjoy your home.
Thank you🙂It’s not an easy thing to do always, that’s for sure but so worth it! There’s still plenty to do but seeing how far I’ve come really helps with the motivation 🤩
Great video Tracy! You have come so far. Keep going...you shine bright 🌞 ✨️ 💛
Thank you!!!💖💖💖Still have a long way to go but happy for how far I’ve come😃

🥳Yes we are! I’m so ready for phase/year 2! Seeing how far I’ve come has really put pep in my step to keep going😃
@@TracyAkamine yay!! right here with ya!
Hello from Ontario, Canada. Just found your video and I’m hooked!!! You have a lot to be proud of.
Thanks so much!!
New to your channel & I like it ! I like you and your personality! 👍
Welcome! Thank you🙂
When I saw your first videos, I was wondering how far you could improve your house because to be honest at times I was even desperate but seeing how far you've come is amazing!! I'm so happy for you :)
And thank you for taking us along!
I too wondered how far I was going to improve 😆It’s a huge undertaking but SO WORTH IT! Never give up☺️
Reducing inventory and then organize simply are the two most important steps! Way to go!!!
Yes! I still have inventory to reduce & dirt to clean but it’s WAAAAY less than the MOUNTAIN it was at the start of all this!
You should be very proud of yourself
☺️
You have lots to celebrate - the change from a year ago is amazing It would be so easy to feel overwhelmed and stop but you have soldiered through. I am looking forward to seeing more of your and Tina's journey
Thank you! We have lots to still do around here (not to mention the day to day cleaning that is endless😆). I appreciate the dupport💖

Tina has matured A LOT this past year! She is way more an asset than a liability to Tracy now. Keep rocking it, Tina!
She really has evolved! As I looked back at the early footage of her I realized what a pain in “Tracy’s” rear she was! LOL. I’m so glad I put her to work and that she’s so useful now😆Thank you so much for all your support💖
