So earlier this week, I was doing some decluttering. At one point, I was having an issue trying to decide if I should throw a few things away or try to donate. At that moment I knew it would be awhile before I could donate. Then it hit me, "hey! Cass gave me permission just to throw it away." And I did. 😂

🎉❤🎉Hooraaahy!!! As long as it's out of your house, does it really matter if you control it's destiny from there? Is it worth the sanity that space making could bring to your household instead to keep it on the fence or more important to make that space? We just went through a huge declutter and still going... don't want to lose traction. We spent 2 weeks preparing for a houseguest and then a week of my husband's vacation time with the kids home just cleaning and clearing. A stay cation of catching up from our move out here. And for the 1st time in a year, we could see visible progress!!!It is so motivating! The kids love it so much they even help, now!!! Without yelling. Sometimes.

Anytime I'm decluttering my place or my aunt's apartment and I don't feel like trekking to a thrift shop to drop off items, I leave the useful stuff on the curb or outside of my aunt's building's dumpsters. Someone ALWAYS picks these things up very quickly.🥳🥳🥳

For me, because the donation center is really close, and the second hand place is a farther drive, Cass gave me permission to just donate these really nice, dressy, still in fashion work clothing that doesn't fit me. I am not so poor that I have to burn fossil fuel, to make the maybe $12 I would have made. Instead, I chose to get this nice clothing to someone who it fits, faster, and cheaper for them. But most importantly, it all went out of my house!

Same here! I got stuck while decluttering my garage. And then I realized it was OK for me to throw things away things rather than donate. I bought them why, items are mine to do what I want with them. 😅

Cass, I am starting to try to crawl out of this hole. My son was killed in a car accident in 2020 and my whole life spiraled. I have not scrubbed my floors for four years. My twin sister, little sister, and mother could not handle my grief and abandoned me. I gained back the 70 pounds I had lost. I am doing the bare minimum to keep this house afloat. Things fell into disrepair and getting them fixed put us in a bunch of debt. All this while finding out and coming to terms with the fact that I have ADHD. You are the first life preserver I have been thrown. I've been binging your videos for a couple days now. So far, just watching and not doing, but I'm hoping to get there. I'm only first now starting to breathe again.

please keep crawling!!!! I am so so sorry for your loss. But, I hope that your life gets a bit better each day. I also hope that you can forgive your family someday. Try not to hate them or hold it against them, even though they may not deserve to be forgiven because it only hurts us when we can't forgive others. That is awful that they abandoned you but ask the Lord to help you and to bring you the right friends to be your family. And when we are at our lowest and saddest times, it is so hard to think about others, but at some point, it does help to help others. I am praying for you right now.

What a trauma, Family! Every blessing to you and your situation! Cas is a great encourager and the has been through alot. We all learn from her every video! XxG Ire

I am recovering from Colitis and the medication wakes me up at night. So, I use that time to "catch up" on things. I have a beautiful desk! My dishes are done every day. The refrigerator, pantry, and cleaning supplies are organized. I am down to 2 rooms that are not tidy. I didn't plan to do the pantry - I just did it. Of course, the closets, cupboards, and drawers need to get done, but I'm chipping away at it. Before the plumber came one day, I emptied the cupboard under the sink, decluttered, and made room for a recycle bin, which keeps that clutter off the counter. I work on this little by little when I'm not watching Clutterbug, then I reward myself by watching and rewatching your videos. My GIANT goal is to have my house be The White House. It is white with brown trim, but the yard needs work, the rooms need work, and I have other projects that need work. So, I cut the pie into pieces and do some of it every day. As for writing, on The Waltons, the episode called The Literary Man brings a writer to the mountain. He tells John-boy to write the little stories because the sum of them could be the BIG story. That's one thing I'm doing, so my stories are available to my daughter when I'm no longer here. Sorry for the rant. Your videos are wonderful.

My sweet friend Cas, there is a high percentage of people in jail who have adhd. I want to say so many things to you for encouragement. We all need that. I just love you, look up to you, and can relate to you so much. This is definitely one of your purposes in life. God is using you to help others, and I hope you can see that. I appreciate you including your super fun sense of humor. I truly wish you were a personal friend. It will sound so weird, Im sure, but I trust you and would be okay to have you in my home and not feel the shame as I do with literally everyone else. I have been struggling for years. It is a deep and wide hole. I wish you were close by and I could get your help in my home. But for today I really wanted to just say Thank you, I appreciate you, and tell you you are an inspiration.😊

Oh, Cass! Your superpower is being Real. You’re changing lives with your authenticity and practicality. Thanks.💜💜💜

I did 1 sink of dishes, started 1 load of laundry and folded the 2 loads I've been ignoring and my son took out 2 trash bags of garbage for me. Thanks for keeping me company.

Cas, I love when you tell your story...ill never forget when you shared about you and Joe dating, how he went into your scary kitchen, and you came out to find him washing a glass because he wanted a drink...horrifying...i think about this every time I think about putting a skillet in the oven to wash "later". ❤❤❤

That is the truth! A clean, decluttered house MAKES my LIFE EASIER!!!

I managed to fill two big bags with old clothes within 15 minutes, that will leave the house next week to the thrift store! Thank you so much for your kick in the butt! I needed this.

I admire your ability to overcome impossible obstacles in your past to be the greatest version of yourself today! Thank you for inspiring me to work on my goals every single day, a few precious minutes at a time. This podcast is filled with sage advice.

Hi Cass, I'm a relatively new subscriber to your two KZread channels. I've been watching for about 4 months or so. I didn't know your background with drugs, alcohol, jail, criminal record, homelessness, and just struggling to "do life well" until you mentioned it in this episode. I've been through all the same things in my past. I'm 16 years clean & sober, but still struggle at times to "do life well". I've been having a more difficult time the last few years as depression is ramping up and it seems my ADHD is as well. I have fibromyalgia, spinal issues, and chronic pain, which can be devastating on their own, but when you throw all the other stuff on top of it, life feels paralyzing. I recently got a new, challenging, really cool job that I'm amazed I was chosen for, and so grateful to have, but it's definitely stressful having to learn a lot of new work stuff at once. I feel like a fraud when I leave work and go home to sit on my couch all weekend and stare at my cluttered, unorganized house, and get all anxious and upset with myself. Then I go back to work and act like the bubbly, intelligent, confident person I am there.... All while wishing I could figure out how to deal with all my issues outside of work. I have a great life. Two awesome dogs, a loving husband and family, a great job, wonderful friends, and I'm pretty healthy, even though I feel like crap most of the time. I LOVE your advice, tactics, strategy, and approach to dealing with a lot of the issues many people face in their homes, and life in general. I've been in a depressed rut for over a year, and can't seem to make any headway on my house goals, or general well being life goals. Your advice seems the best way for me, a 41yo woman with rebellious tendencies and rampant ADHD that's similar to your own, to try and approach my goals in a way that will actually materialize visible results. My ideas and plans are often too lofty and intimidating for me to achieve. I'm rambling like crazy, but I just wanted to say thank you for putting out your content. It's so appreciated and life changing for people like me who feel like they can't relate to 99% of the advice from organizers on social media. You're awesome! Please keep putting out your great advice and energy into the world. I'll be here waiting to learn from you and share your advice with others who need it ❤🤟🤗💗

Keep it up, Miss Consistent! Cheers🎉 to your success!

Cass, you are the BOSS! I’ve been following you for some time now and I have embraced the life of “DECLUTTERING” Thank you for opening my eyes. I make a list of decluttering areas from the inside of the house, to the shed, the garage and even the yard (clearing brush & weeds) The other day I asked my wife to give me 15 minutes and come to basement. She knew I was tossing my stuff and I offered to carry out anything that she wanted to move along. She said “I don’t want to get rid of my stuff”!! In this moment, I dug deep and called up my inner Cass. “I can’t make you get rid of your stuff. It’s not my job to worry about your stuff. I just offered to lug anything that you pointed to” Just like taking out the kitchen trash….

Your honesty is refreshing. The reality of this makes us look at ourselves honestly as well.

Cas- I'm always blown away by your relatability. I've been watching for a couple of years now, and you've made me laugh, cry, contemplate, and clean when I don't feel like it. So many parts of your life seem to be exactly who I am, too (even the dark parts), and I've found so much confidence and joy in homemaking because of your channel. 👉Funny moment- I was sharing about your firefighter journey with my boyfriend, and I said, "And then she was telling me..." like you were directly talking to me alone. 😂 We had a good laugh, but in reality, it's so true that you make us all feel like your real friends. ❤

Well said Cas! Especially if you are battling chronic illness or depression ❤️ I will be replaying this many times!

I sense alot of trauma here. I think trauma leads to the overwhelm, leads to hoarding, leads to more overwhelm. I have a friend who is a very organized hoarder, but it's still hoarding. I love the advice on saving too. I think so many people just think they can't do it, so they don't. The notion of doing hard things should be instilled in kids. It's a basic skill that many people lack. Great podcast!

This episode really hit home for me. I have so many unfinished projects and 5 mins a day would make a big impact over time!

Dear Cas 🐞😊🩷 Your podcasts have become an important part of my life 🥰 I love listening to them over and over again while decluttering and doing stuff around the house 🏡 They are always motivating me 🩷 Thank you so much for your work and for sharing your wisdom with us 🐞 Greetings from Germany 🌞 Sonja

Cass you are amazing! I went through 4 days in a row junk drawer, cleaned under sink, cleaned off counter in laundry room, and cleaned a cabinet with all my serving dishes. Yes, I through out a lot and had some things to donate. Some how I started to look at the big picture. Slacked off...dang! Then I started looking all I had to do and then I listened to you. I started looking at how much or that mountain you mentioned. Think I am going to put on one of your podcast and do one thing every day,again. 15 min. for 30days can add up to7-8 hrs. a month I can do this. Oh I was able to save a lot by putting $1 away a day. It was amazing how much that helped. Some days more. So if I can do that I can do anything, thanks Cass.

From listening to you and Dawn at the minimal mom, I was able to advise a friend to consider just doing the floor in one room of her house each day and give herself grace. The conversation evolved to her ordering a robovac to help even more. Thank you for encouraging us to be kind to ourselves that we can echo out into the world. ❤🎉

Words can't even express just how much I needed to hear this podcast! There is wisdom here. I have several big goals, and I've been discouraged because I can't seem to accomplish them. But I need to make smaller attainable DAILY routines so I CAN achieve my goals! Thanks, Cass! I'm motivated again!

I canned tomatoes...6 hours equals 7 quarts. So I only got a 3' x 4' floor scrub done. It went from a 5 minutes better to becoming a power hour on that floor after the canning. I didn't want to do any thing. The floor hasn't been done in months, maybe years.. I'm proud of what I did. I am my own hero. I had concussion syndrome for 3 years and bed riden mostly. I am chipping away consistently. Thanks for this secret. I have to be in for the long haul. The filth from years of disablement is overwhelming. Fifteen minute micro projects are working! Thanks, Cass.

Just reorganised my shoes on my wardrobe, 10 mins. Yesterday I decluttered and reorganised under bathroom sink 15 min. Thanks for the reminder about doing small things, they do make me feel good and gradually everything gets so much better!!

Dear Cass … you are an inspiring hero for us all !! You have overcome many challenges,& obstacles…& have become amazing you !! You are showing us all that we too can overcome our own traumas,& adversity,& become our true selves…strong, resilient, capable, persistent…& I dare say… organized,& clean !! Thank you for sharing your story,& your knowledge with us all… I have endured,& survived a similar experience… clutter seams to be the residual leftovers from this … but I am healing,& cleaning,& clearing up my space,& my life …thanks again,& again…your awesome !!💕🌻🦋🌸💕

What a great video! Thank you for the inspiration. Slow and steady wins the race!! You're a rockstar!

So true I've been doing the 5 minutes of decluttering every single day for the past 3 and a half months plus a half hour of cleaning and it's made a huge difference. My bed is always made dishes done bathroom cleaned what a huge difference ❤

YOU have made a difference in my life over the years, my friend!!! I plan to refocus. AND I'm going to get my kids to set some goals too. I tell them about the power of five minutes a day, but I think they need some BIG goals!

Not concentrating o the "BIG" goal is how I learned to walk and loose crutches after a spin injury. In the beginning you are so motivated, you make huge progress, but after the first year, progress is miniscule that you cannot even see it. So how do you motivates yourself yor the "long run"? Like you said - form a habit and DO. Just dont stop doing. Because at one point, that big goal, walking without crutches, seemed to go more far away. I had to trust that I will experience some progress over the time. It took me 4,5 years (I was able to walk, but with a crutch early, but it was extremely hard in the beginning). And after 4,5 years I even reached my "gold standard" - walking barefoot on a sandy beach.

wow i never knew your history but it helps a lot knowing this as now I can really prove there is hope for everyone who wants to change

Cas! I am struggling right now with just stuff. This made me cry. I am so incredibly amazed by you! I have followed you for your clutterbug stuff, but I had no idea that you struggled with so much. Damn, you are a freakin’ beast…just slaying all the things!!!!!!!!!!!! So proud of you! Thank you for sharing.

Thank you Cass. I was laying around thinking about how much I have to do and how little time i have to do it(as i lay around!). After watching this, I jumped up, gathered recycling, put away laundry, gathered items to drop off at the thrift shop and wrote a postcard to a nephew and a niece because WHO doesn't enjoy getting something in the mail? I'm on my way out the door. Thank you for your stories and for always being such an inspiration.❤

You have been inspiring me so much. I've been decluttering every day. It seems neverending but with each box it gets better and more liberating. Thank you so much

How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time! Thank you so much Cas for helping me to apply taking one small step each day if only for five minutes a day. No matter how far down I have gone, no matter how far behind I have gotten, no matter how far my goals seem to be - I can do something for five minutes that would overwhelm me if I felt I had to keep it up for a lifetime. You are an inspiration because you are real. I love that about you!

Whoa !!! I have never heard your testimony before , having just stumbled across your website a week ago . Mind blown

Cas, I’ve followed you for years and I think this video is the most impactful I’ve ever listened to. For some reason now it feels like I can do this if you did it! Just think of how accomplished you are! A successful wife and mother, business woman, influencer, fitness example… It’s because you’ve “been there” people can relate to you. Much love my friend- so proud of you!

Last year I started a Gold Star system. When I did my 15 minutes of extra stuff a day I got to put a gold star on the wall calendar. I can't begin to explain how motivating this was for me. Evenings when I had a case of I don't want to, I knew I would be mad the next morning if I missed a star. Hubby had a sudden unexpected quad by pass. My project came to a halt as I didn't have enough in me. He has recovered fine and I was thinking yesterday I need to start this again. Tks for the timely reminder. 😊

Cas, I just want to say thank you for always motivating us! I feel like I've made so much progress, yet I feel like I'm forever away from being where I want. And I get down on myself for it. I appreciate your heart and encouragement! And I have a cleaner cabinet after this podcast!

Oh Cas, I’ve been watching you for years and I’m shocked, in a good way, about what you shared about your past. We are not our mistakes, our past does not define us but it does help shape us. You are truly inspiring!

What I got done while listening to Cas: empty the dishwasher, filled the dishwasher, tidied the counter, and made banana bread!

I love that because we also have lots of 10 minute chunks in a day! So once we get one habit going, there's plenty of room for another and then another. 🥰💗

You are a great inspirational speaker. I love listening to your stories and everything you have overcome. Love all your videos.

Yes, Cas, great approach...only 10-15 minutes per day, makes things attainable! Love it. Now I need to force myself to do it! haha

OMG, you are Amazing !!! I have been watching you for a few years now, and I didn't realize you struggled earlier in life with so many severe challenges. You have my utmost respect and admiration...you seem so perfect to me, as much as a person can be; I had assumed that you grew up in a very polite and well-adjusted way, and that you had been blessed to have a very stable and secure background. The fact that you have turned everything around so beautifully is incredible...What an example...

Thanks Cas! I wish I'd have done this decades ago. I'm a relatively new subscriber but I'm slowly getting things done! The concept of just 'something' for 15 minutes a day....🤯

Thank you for being you! Please make sure you get the spot on your brow looked at. I need you in my life. You are funny, sincere and honest. I look forward to your posts.

Meanwhile I had to wash and bag the string beans for the freezer. ...make jars of okra water for my husband, Google to see if I could freeze the left over okra ...it was a yes....so okra flash freezing, ginger freezing.. Foil wrapping Romain lettuce....bagging out a box of chicken breasts, a box of legs and thighs for dinners, and chicken backs for the dogs....cleaning up after all that Maple Lodge work.... Sweat is dripping into my eyes but I am done. I have some new insights...like the 5 types of identity clutter, using small time blocks, and loving myself in the midst of it all. I am in my 60"s...been caring for my hubby of 40 years for 5 years...he just had a transplant, a 4 year old daughter, 2 grandchildren living with us, a grandson who comes every weekend for his 9 years, plus 2 grown sons, 2 dogs , tenants, a full time job...

Would love to read the book you write about how you shifted your life trajectory to being the successful, happy woman you are today!

Something I have found to be true for a good exercise plan is that doing it every day is so much easier than every other day because you are making it a habit and setting it on auto pilot and don’t even have to think about it. I know that first thing in the morning, right after making my bed, that my work out is next. My brain doesn’t fight it anymore because it just knows it is next. Just like if you work a job with the same hours, you would typically follow a similar pattern and leave around the same time and it is just what you do and much of it is probably on autopilot. Getting in a work out becomes that way too and leaves me feeling amazing after! I know I couldn’t rely on motivation to do it, despite knowing how good it means feeling afterwards though, so I have to automate it and make it a habit. The funny thing about habits is that them being hard to break can come in handy here. Once I establish a workout habit on autopilot, it feels almost painful to have to break it for anything! I will be having another baby soon and I know I will have to take a break for a bit after but I’m already super bummed about having to break that habit and doing the work to reestablish it. Yes, I can just stretch during those 6 weeks, but that’s not the same. Good thing a cute baby should make the transition a bit easier.❤ so keep up your 10 mins every day and you may find the longer you keep running habit, the harder it is to break!

Thank you Cas for this wisdom. I need to just focus on 15 minutes on doing something and Ignore the BIG GOAL!!!

Paused ten minutes before the end, got up and spent...15? 20? minutes tidying, putting laundry away, and a little bit of reorganising. Now have a tidy desk and craft area - and the laundry basket is empty. Thank you Caz xxx

Got my kitchen cleaned 💪💃🎉

Actually loved this, I vacuumed and steamed my floors with my new steamer!

I’ve listened to you SO much, and have never heard about your past… I can relate and I’m so proud of you! You were already an inspiration, but wow! ❤

Love you, Cass. Thank you for being open and honest. Thank you for letting us know that you didn’t jump up one day and say I’m going to go crazy and do all things I need to do, yadayadayada . You committed to do one thing for 15 minutes. I love it that you didn’t say must do one certain thing. I could go on and on. I love that you talk about people who have goals yet have self sabotage and the way to progress towards out goals. You’ve helped me so much as well everyone who has listened to you!!!! And pairing with Dawn and Dana. Triple Positive Threat ❤️💪🙌

Thanks so much for the motivation! I have to keep reminding myself that little goals, they add up! 15min a day, adds up and may motivate you to do more!

Absolute truth. Thanks for this great broadcast.

You are absolutely phenomenal and your life story blesses us as we struggle 💜

You are the best, Cass- love you. Got my 5 min ID’d for today!

Better is good enough each day

I never knew your backstory. You have obviously come a long way from where you were. No one would guess that you had gone through so much. Thanks for sharing your story. Regarding habits, it’s funny how so many of us think “I can’t stick with something long enough to make it a habit”. But the truth is that everything we do in a regular basis is a habit and once upon a time it was new to us. I was thinking while listening to this video that what we really need to do is to swap habits. Like the 5 minutes you talk about, we can swap out 5 minutes of watching TV for a 5 minute pickup. Or skip 5 minutes of KZread shorts for the 5 minute pickup. Better yet, add the 5 minute pick up while listening to a podcast. I completely understand flopping down on the couch in front of the tv when getting home from work because I did it for years. I don’t have that excuse now because I’m retired, but I still haven’t accomplished the things I said I would once I retired. Instead I’ve come up with excuses. Today I walked for 20 minutes while listening to you. It’s one small thing that I can say I accomplished. Thanks for your encouragement.

Whew! This podcast was the kick in the butt I needed. I’m preparing to launch my own KZread channel, but, like the name… I struggle with perfectionism and I get In My Own Way of just doing it. Just do it. Baby steps breakdown of my To-Do list and just get ‘er done 🤦‍♀️

Thanks so much Cass, really grateful for you and your podcast. I needed to hear all this today
