The toxic culture of ”better”
from Be Uncluttered · host Rebecca Mezzino and Tara Tuttle
Where does happiness lie? When striving for it, why does it always seem out of reach? Clutter is caused by many things, but acquiring is a big reason we have too much stuff. We acquire things a lot of the time because we feel we need The Thing because it will make our lives better. From the pretty new notebook (I'll get organised) to the new shoes (I'll look taller and trendier) to the new rug (the other one didn't match the sofa properly) and the new kitchen storage (glass will be safer). Are you afflicted by this? (Hint: we all are to some degree!). What can do you do about it? Is it okay? Is it not? Why? This week Bec and Tara throw all these questions into the pot and mix it up for you to taste.
