Resistance is Not Futile: Avoid or Escape the Consumerism Mindset - The Clutter Fairy Weekly #92

Some of us love to shop, and stores and online retailers with stuff to sell know how to push our buttons to make the sale. But it’s easy for our spaces to get out of balance if we bring home more than we’re using up, giving away, or getting rid of. In episode #92 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, talks about the effects of consumerism on clutter and offers strategies for resisting the onslaught of advertising messages to “right-size” your shopping habits.Show notes: http://cfhou.com/tcfw092Documentary mentioned in this episode: A Cluttered Life: Middle-Class Abundance.The Clutter Fairy Weekly is a live webcast and podcast designed to help you clear your clutter and make space in your home and your life for more of what you love.
