Why hire a decluttering coach?

Dana K White's decluttering process removes emotions from the equation and helps you make decisions about each and every item in your home, either giving it a place to live or letting it go.

This fact and instinct based approach to decluttering acknowledges your emotions but keeps them from causing you to feel overwhelmed.

While the No Mess Decluttering Process is simple, you may benefit from having a coach help you work through your clutter. Our Speed of Life Decluttering Coaches will guide you through the decluttering process and help you experience real success in your home.

Our coaches won’t judge your home or your stuff. They’ll help you make decisions about what can stay and what should go. They will help you find homes for your favorite things where you’ll be able to locate them quickly and easily after they're gone.

A Guide

A decluttering coach guides you through the decluttering process, helping you make decluttering decisions and experience decluttering success.

Well-Trained

While each coach is unique, Speed of Life Decluttering Coaches have been trained to lead decluttering clients through Dana K White’s No Mess Decluttering Method.

Dana K White, author of Decluttering at the Speed of Life, has built a community of declutterers who have experienced huge success getting their homes under control. She teaches and guides through her books, podcasts, and videos.

Speed of Life decluttering coaches are trained by Dana to use her unique process and to understand the challenges faced by those who are overwhelmed by their clutter.

Dana’s five step No Mess Decluttering Process is designed to help you make progress and only progress, and never end up with a bigger mess. You'll learn how to make real progress in any amount of time, and you'll see huge progress when your coach is by your side.

A SUPPORT

Decluttering can be emotionally draining due to the feelings and memories attached to your things, and from the mental energy needed to make hard decluttering decisions.

Speed of Life decluttering coaches understand these challenges and are trained to help.
