About this listen

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the clutter in your life? A pile of laundry on the floor, a stack of papers on the table, or just too much stuff? You are not alone. The tough part is, you know that shoving it all out of sight isn’t enough—you need to start throwing things away. But you don’t have to become a minimalist. You just need to learn how to remove the excess, so you have more time for what is important in your life. And that’s just what this course teaches you.

Sophie Largen has made it her passion project to help motivate and encourage others by providing tips for efficient cleaning, organizing, and productivity. This practical guide will walk you through decluttering your spaces step by step. It will help you work through common pitfalls, and it will provide you with a plan for success for achieving a simplified—and more joyous—life.

Sophie starts by helping you build a road map and a schedule that are attainable for you and your family. She then shares her favorite decluttering strategies, providing exercises and asking questions to get you through challenges, such as parting with sentimental items. She then offers tools and techniques to help you maintain the organization and simplified life you’ve established.

By the end of this course, you may find yourself with new problems, like what to do with all your extra free time and that newly emptied drawer!

Actually Helpful

I have listened and read many organizing/ dec littering books. They all pretty much help in some way if not just to help me focus. This one was VERY short but also VERY helpful. I love the organizational map /zones of the house and the methodical way to handle organizing and decluttering. I love that she takes us through a peaceful process and at a peaceful pace! Very doable. I love the visual Sophie painted of what life looks like when we lose the clutter. I can’t believe I am saying this but I am actually excited about doing some decluttering.

Helpful, concise and awesome

Loved this read. Especially how useful the tips and insight were. I enjoyed the ability to work through it with the author and also by virtue of it being concise, you can refer back as needed.

Too much intro

I did get some tips, however, I almost gave up in the beginning because it took a while to get into her power points regarding decluttering.

A lot of value in a short amount of time.

I’m impressed with this quick listen! I read, listened to, and watched a lot of content by numerous other creators over the years. This author is aligned with some elements of other creators, albeit not blatantly obvious. Overall, her method is a no-nonsense approach (yet empathetic), offering some different perspectives and angles (a compliment in such saturated niches). I’ve been with Audible for many years and have an extensive library. This is the first time I’m recommending a book that’s less than three hours to be worthy of a credit. Otherwise, it’s currently $11 to buy, which, initially, I could not get behind. However, now that I’ve finished it and will be referring back to it, I believe its value exceeds $11 or even *gulp* one credit. It’s practical and applicable. And, it actually helps me take action by being less than eight or however many hours long.

Very helpful

I loved this and the different way of thinking about decluttering. The voice reading it to me is a big deal to me and the author's voice is really nice. I could definitely have listened to more.
