It's Madi Gray and today we're DECLUTTERING MY WHOLE ENTIRE HOUSE. Yep. This is a doozy, I basically go through every single room and closet in our house, get it all out, clean, declutter and organize it in this video! I hope this video inspires you and motivates you to live more minimally. I love living minimally and talk (maybe a little too long 💁) in this video about why.

Why I don't have social media • Social Media Detox FOR...
Welcome to Madisun Gray, the place I share passionately about my love for slow, simple living and “superfoodie” vegan recipes.
Five years ago I read a book called The China Study by PhD T Colin Campbell and it sparked my discovery of a whole new world and changed my mindset completely about health. I’m not one to do much of anything halfway and quickly got my hands on every plant-based book, podcast and documentary. I didn’t just sip the super vegan extra organic Koolaid, I drank it straight out of the fire hose.
Right away, I noticed big changes in my health and wellbeing. That’s when I started questioning other “normal” things I was doing in my life just because everyone else was. Things like pesticides, processed food, home and beauty products filled with chemicals and ingredients I couldn’t pronounce and spending the working hours indoors.
Today I am free of Asthma, endometriosis, hypothyroid, acne, acid reflux, fatty liver, a medicine cabinet full of prescriptions and expensive creams and have had two vibrant, healthy vegan pregnancies.
I feel lighter and healthier than ever and hope that you’ll feel inspired to transform your health and life with some of the same simple diet and lifestyle changes I have.
I am on this journey as much as you are and don’t pretend to have it all figured out. I never get tired of learning and trying new things to make life the best it can be and love having conversations with like-minded people about continual growth.
ABOUT ME
I’m a California native who grew up in a town with about as many cows as people. My favorite childhood memories are from time spent at the beach house on the bluffs of rural Mexico. It was nothing but a place to crash but I loved every minute of time spent there with my younger brother, our parents and friends.
I met my husband in high school (the only one in our town) and we’ve been dating since we were 15. Sometimes I can’t believe we’re those same two people but the longer we’re together the more I actually believe soul mates might actually be a thing.
We live in a tiny one-bedroom, one-bathroom beach bungalow only a few houses off the water. I know we won’t be able to make this place work much longer since our family keeps getting bigger but we sure love living minimally and spending our days by the ocean just playing with our kids. Follow along on my Instagram for more of our day to day life.
We recently welcomed our second baby into our happy little home and got to experience our first planned home birth. There are no words for how much I love home birth. I labored for three hours in the comfort of home and will never get over how incredible it was to welcome him in such a relaxed, easy, peaceful setting. I love a good labor and delivery story.
I’m a total health nut. If I need to recharge I’ll reach for a podcast about something I want to learn more about in the health world, especially superfoods and I’m always reading at least five books.
If this video added value to your life, I'd love to have you subscribe. I post new videos every Monday!
THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORT❤️

You truly live this, and I want everyone to know this is so real. Love you, and love seeing those cute babies in the mix!
THANKS MOM 🤪❤️
Thanks for the video! I’m a mom of four littles from the Midwest and we started our minimalist journey a few years ago, before baby 3. While I am still working on it, I find so much freedom in owning less and not having so many things to take care of. We have a small house by most standards, especially since six of us live here. But, I always tell my husband I wish we had less space because we could get rid of even more! Also, we agree that the less toys my children have the more creatively and kindly they play with each other!!
Lindsey thanks so much for this comment!! ❤️ I totally agree! I think the small space actually makes it so much easier! Keep at it!
I've been down sizing very successfully for almost 4 years. I was married to a hoarder for 11 years, and it was so harshly triggering for me every day, like i was drawing. .He left a lot behind when we parted. I'm a tidy person who married young, and I didn't know he was like that until I lived with him. I new he was messy, but not a bad hoarder. I'm so proud of how much I've gotten rid of, and help my 3 kids practice purging. I watch/listen to yours and other youtubers vids to help motivate me to keep up with the house and decluttering.
Love this Madi! I love decluttering videos and it always reminds me of my one month straighten up of certain high traffic zones in my house that always have the propensity to get cluttered quickly. I’ve been a practicing minimalist for five years and it’s definitely life changing!
I'm currently working on minimising the amount of stuff we have in the house. Our work/home-life balance is way out, and the amount of stuff we have is one element I can change to help me create more free time for family and fun. Your intro was really inspiring, thank you!
Amen to minimalism!!!!!! It literally healed my depression when I was pregnant with my third during the morning sickness phase!
As far as wardrobe, what I found to be the most helpful was the 10 item wardrobe by the Daily Connoisseur here on youtube. Her first two books were amazing too!
omg that is lifechanging- I just went and watched her ted talk I'm totally in! Thank you so much for this recommendation!!
@@MadisunGray yes it was incredibly life changing for me too!! ♥️
I just love the light in your house ughhhh drooling over that good light
Just came across your channel! I love the simplicity and beach living! Great stuff
Great inspo 🦋
Honestly sometimes I just wanna start brand new with nothing hahaha I'll give it all away!! TAKE IT
So much fun to watch, Love the music & your wisdom shared! On my own declutter journey & you have been so inspiring!! Have only recently found your channel but loving it soooooo much! Love & light 🙌💖
This is so, so inspiring and motivating! ✨ thank you for sharing your "journey". 😜🧡
You put this video out at just the right time since we're moving. All of our stuff is going to be boxed up while we travel for a couple weeks...I'm looking at all these boxes and thinking how is it that we don't need any of this for three weeks and we still have it?! Do you think my husband would be upset if I unpacked and got rid of most of it? 😂😂🥴🥴
That's a really good point! I hover in that odd space too... There's a vague possibility my husband and I might be able to go visit his family (in Mexico) and we're not sure when and not sure how long we might stay - 2 weeks, 2 months, a year? And I KNOW the amount of stuff I would be allowed to take, total, and even the amount I would WANT and be WILLING to take would be so incredibly little...... I mean, I want a clean break, I want to be free of stuff to manage, and free to enjoy living life with his family (it's been impossible to go meet them so this is going to be THE central focus, just living home life with our family there).... And yes, just like you said, it makes me wonder, how come I still keep so much keepsake papers and stuff in our small house in USA? Even after multiple levels of minimizing over the last few years! 😅 Thanks for your comment, it got my minimalizing juices thinking. (What a weird sentence. I'm sleepy 😆)

Loving your videos :)
Hahaha, l thoroughly enjoyed your intro!! You have a great personality and I really appreciate your tips and insight on minimalism and simple living…thank you for ALL of your videos!
Thank you for this. My mindset is changing about how I live every day. You are Awesome!!
Thank you Glaen!
So many gems in that intro talk! I’ve been a minimalist for about 5 years and that expressed so much of what I feel about minimalism too. Just found you and can’t wait to watch your other videos!
thanks Jeannette!
Haha omg the part with the office clip had me dying 🤣 I love your channel.. keep it up!!
We live in a small space as well and it’s amazing to me how much we can still get rid of. I am a visual personal so clutter makes me crazy. I have got to read this Simplicity Parenthood book. Did you read a hard copy or listen to it audiobook style?
Thank you for the inspiration ! 😊
Thanks for watching Kelly! ❤️
I just found your page lastnight and let me just tell you, I have been PURGING your videos! We are so alike and I adore these videos! I found minimalism less than a year ago and have decluttered atleast 60% of everything we own! My husband and I also our 3 kids. I have gotten rid of sooo much and still feel so inspired to let go of more! Love it, thank you for your videos!
Thank you for the support Hayley! ❤️
I love these videos I am going all the way back to day 1 and watching I love your channel
Nice and fast declutter, love your content and your kids are so cute! 👏👏🎉
Thank you for your support! ❤️
I loved this and you made laugh 😂❤
Just found you on UA-cam and am really enjoying your content! I wish I had known about minimilism and slow living when I was a young mom of three, but it's helping me to be an awesome Grandma now. haha
coming in with the office vids... my girl lol Also doing this soooooon thanks for the motivation
Just discovered you and you’ve inspired me to keep going on my minimalism journey… We just moved into a rental in Ontario Canada, country side and pregnant with our 3rd!!! Figuring it out but you’re videos help a lot! xx
Shannon that's so exciting! Congratulations! I'm so glad to hear that these videos are helping ❤️ much love!
You've inspired me to declutter my house.. thank you! ❤
❤️❤️
You bless so many lives with your inspiring videos! The aesthetics of your life, ahhh!
I’m a mama of 11 kiddos and another on the way and I feel like we are similar in many ways 😂 just the love for simple life and natural living and pregnancy and home birth being the Best!!!
But I definitely haven’t learned the minimalism thing…yet! However, I’m going for it! We’ve emptied 1/2 our house so we can finish the unfinished home we’ve been living in and I cannot wait to not put it all back in a clean space with real walls 😄
Wow this is so sweet. Thank you 😘
Consider donating to women shelters. Churches or salvation army they do alot of good for the communities and Christians where goodwill CEO keeps 100% profits made besides what employers are paid. God bless you and your family, i am working on minimalism myself now and have 4 donations bags like wow! So excited to see more space in our home and even our 3 year old son is really getting into wantinf tk donate things he isnt playing with or using, i love this chapter of our lives to a new beginning of less clutter and more contentment and value to the things we are keeping ❤
I’ve been watching all your videos lately since I started a lot of decluttering myself. This one just makes me want to be your friend haha. When you throw in the office clip 😂😂😂
Truly enjoy your videos! Especially when weird stuff happens! 😂😂 You're my virtual minimalist friend!! 🤪🥰
This is so sweet. Thank you so much for watching ❤️
Vegan and minimalism?!? Sign me up! New subscriber, pregnant with my second and I love to find people that have their take on minimalism at all stages but I mostly find single women who are minimalist and like that’s great and all but not at all realist for me! You inspired me to go clean out my closet and drawers 👍
I often wondered what was really in the minimalist closet. Now I know and I don’t feel bad. Thanks for the honest look. Your beautiful helper is too cute.
I really love all your videos.... ❤️
Thank you Aida!
Just came across your channel. It's great!
So glad you are here Angie!
I love that cute entryway basket! Where is it from? It’s just what my little entry way needs in my living room 😍😍
It was from World Market!
Thank you for sharing :)
Neat to see how you have evolved over the yeara
I'm at the start of this road to less (I don't want to say Minimalism yet, cause I'm far from that!). Mostly because my head is often going crazy by all the stuff I own. My own stuff, my 2 year old stuff. It's just too much often. But what I noticed by the first round of sorting things out, is how hard it is to let go of things I used to love. Like certain tv show Dvd boxes. They used to bring me so much joy, but I haven't watched them for years and I probably will never either. They fill in that shelve in the closet for years. I hold on to them because the "What if." and the sentimentle feeling of it. Do you have any advice on this? How to let go of the things you used to love/still love, but don't use/watch/read, etc anymore.
It’s definitely hard, but I like to think that those things served their purpose to me. I got a lot of value out of them for a time, and now I can move on. The memories aren’t in the things themselves, they are in our minds.
I also made a video on sentimental items when we moved to Hawaii. Check it out. ua-cam.com/video/zFoLmfvbgsM/v-deo.html
I have a case like that. What do you keep in yours? It’s the case with your monogram on it.
Me too!
Loving your videos. Where did you buy your 3-tiered basket organizer by your front door?
Hey! I got it from World Market a few years back. Hope that helps!
@@MadisunGray thank you 🙏
I love decluttering even if it has been a long time since doing it. It is always like a fun activity, don't you think??
I giggled when your son was using the toothbrush to rub on his feet and the comforter haha.
Can you link your bed? I can’t find it on Amazon
Can u please tell me where u got ue green outfit from I love it 😀
The Wholesome Store!
do you keep some extras somewhere incase you have guests come or relatives visit?
No, I just have 1 sheet set per bed.
I really enjoy watching your wholesome videos! They are so inspiring to live everyday intentionally with family and with what you already have. I wanted to comment on the book “The Jesus Storybook Bible” that I saw you store under your couch - such a great book for kids and a huge shout out to you and your family for pouring Jesus into their young souls 💗💗💗
SO much motivation. Tackling Avies room soon her toys are OUT OF CONTROL.
Also, I have toys here for my grandbabies which are close in age to your babies. I don’t want my house to look sterile but I don’t wants toys all over the place. I brought all the toys out of their bedroom and placed out of sight in my living room. But, I want them to all fit on a certain shelf and can’t decide what to get rid of. Thankfully they live beside me so I can send all I don’t want here to their house bec their mama isn’t a minimalist 🤷🏼♀️ So, I don’t want to seem like I don’t want toys but I also don’t want to look like a daycare. Im stuck.
Girl, did you get rid of instant pot???? I am so thinking about as it is collecting dust.
Yes! Sold it!
502 subscribers? Are you kidding me?! LOLOL! You now have 11K Hugs Lisa

understanding that you have already de cluttered and even tho it doesnt look much in your car, it is to you..
and the sense of donating can give you a welcoming freedom..

store your treasure in Heaven.. 🙏💙🕊
I love your videos - I'm back-watching and I think you're fab - Jesus loves you!
Thank you so much for watching Bridget! ❤️
