What is driving your decluttering choices with Arwen Dropmann

In this episode of More Organised Less Clutter Podcast, Arwen Dropmann from Calm Space Organising shares her unique framework to help you understand the three voices that hold you back from letting go.

Episode Highlights:

• Understanding the emotional context of decluttering—why it’s not “just stuff”
• The role of a professional organiser beyond physical tidying: coaching, guiding, and gently challenging
• The Anxious Self: how fear, guilt, and “what if” thinking keep items stuck.
• The Aspirational Self: the clutter that comes from who we wish we were (hello, unfulfilled hobbies!).
• The Authentic Self: making confident decisions aligned with your values and real life.

Key Takeaways:

• Identify which “self” is speaking when you feel stuck—name it to tame it.
• Create simple habits to slow the acquisition of new items and prevent future clutter.
• Build safety around letting go: start small, reduce friction, and celebrate wins.
