Owning less has allowed me to have a cleaner home = less stress/anxiety. It wasn’t till I found contentment that it all came together.
I love this so much! Thanks for sharing!
Yes, me too 🙋
Removing much of the useless clutter has allowed me to enjoy the things I've kept so much more. Alot of what I had was sentimental, or so I thought. My memories of those things are still in my heart, but now I am not saddled with the surplus of items.
I feel free owning less. My stress levels go down and I feel calmer. By stopping the comparison to others I started to appreciate the true wonderful simple things in life.
“I don’t need more space, I just needed less stuff” ... sooooo true!❤️❤️My word for the year is ‘contentment’ and I totally agree that being more grateful for what I have, is key! Discontent comes from believing the lie that what I have is not enough, or that if I had more, I’d be happier. Your channel is helping me so much. Thank you🙏❤️
so true
Less stuff=less stress=peace of mind. 🌞
So true!! I quit shopping and started decluttering and organizing and wow, I feel SO much better! Bonus - getting my credit cards paid down by not shopping any more!! I'm enjoying adopting a more frugal and minimalist mindset!
Decluttering has given me more time to bake, to read, to go on walks everyday. Laundry and dishes don't haunt me. I don't even remember what I got rid of or how it even made my day harder.
I love all of this!!
You are so right about the fact that clutter causes stress and anxiety. I'm trying to become a minimalist but I still have too much stuff and it causes my anxiety to get worse and that causes extreme mental and physical fatigue. I'm constantly tired. But, I have already donated pretty much of my belongings :) I just need to find the energy to continue my decluttering :) I absolutely love your videos and your positive energy :)
You are ALWAYS inspiring! I learn SO much each time by watch your videos. Im that person you were talking about buying all the Target Knick Knacks and not having money left. Im now trying to not buying all the knick knacks and having clutter. I just decluttered the other day and donated 4 big bags of stuff and it feels amazing to have less stuff in the house. Im not overwhelmed or stress anymore from clutter and have time to focus more on my family and less to clean. Keep up the great videos❤
You've got this!!! And remember it's totally fine to take a break from decluttering (I did when I was going through the main part of the decluttering process in my home!) I think the main thing is to just focus on not letting it accumulate again in the meantime...the one in one out rule is GREAT for this! Remember, this is a journey! :)
Reading this made me SO HAPPY! Good for you!
@@FancyThatwithCandice Thank you!!!
You will get it. Take your time , I did .When I started our minimalism journey , seriously two years ago , i got really serious. I work slowly , I'm still working at it , 2 years later .
I agree with everything you said about decluttering and having less stuff. Over the last 3+ years I have got rid of about 80 % of what was I my home and cannot remember what most of it was! It has reduced my anxiety having less to manage, made tidying and cleaning easier and I can now spend more time on the people and things that are important 🙂
Minimalism is LIFE CHANGING!! I'm so happy you found it, too!
You should do a video on how you meal plan for the week!
Decluttering and being a minimalist is SO helpful for someone with depression. Housework is like moving Mount Everest, the less the better!
I do crafts to handle depression (plus meds). Keeping my supplies down to a small bin for each craft is great.

Oh 100% clutter raises my stress level ! Great video 😉
Minimalism teaches us the value of contentment. Contentment allows us to be better minimalists.
Great video!
I can 💯 relate to this!!
“Things I had not thought through.” That one hit me! I have 15 sweaters in a pile right now and I probably would have told you I only had 5 before going through my clothes and thinking about what I really need. Love this video!
So happy this was helpful!
Every time I listen to your videos I am sooooo encouraged!! Thank you!
Clutter overwhelms me. Unfortunately we still have too much, but I’m working on it. Thanks for your advice and knowledge.
Hope you don’t mind me saying, but you’re rocking that red sweater! So lovely to see a pop of energetic colour in a minimalist environment. Thanks for your videos.
Hi Candice, as if i am hearing my reflections. Your voicing out my ❤️ towards minimalism,esp on the part of house as visitor ready, wow just wow,simple yet very significant. 💛💛💛
Thank you for sharing . I think this is your best video so far . You are always I believe honest with us , but I feel you went a bit deeper With this video and what you explained about how you felt before will resonate a lot with some people . 💛.
I would say I agree with all 10. It’s been a blessing!
This was a perfect video. Shopping has been a hobby for me for years too. I decided at the beginning of the year it had to stop!! I stopped watching haul videos too, they are so tempting & i don't need any more clutter. LOVE your channel 💗
Thank you for sharing the great tips🥰
You are so welcome!
Great tips.
You look great in red. That colour really suits you. It’s also one of my favourite colours.
Absolutely love your channel and the great energy you bring. My simplifying journey is very similar to yours so I’m usually nodding and agreeing as I watch. ☺️
Awesome! Thank you!
Nice video! The stress and anxiety is so truee!! I am not done yet but I feel so much better already! Btw the red sweater looks great on you!
Ah you're so sweet! Thanks!
I followed your back when you did your beauty videos. I was in the buy buy mentality too. I loved everything beauty a racked up an amount of makeup I could never finish. I’m 22, and found minimalism in January of 2020. I decluttered 900 items In 2020. From clothes I had left from middle school, free items from college, old toys, and stuff I didn’t need. I still have a far way to go. But I feel better with each item I let go. I am so excited that my mindset evolved along with yours! I can continue to watch your videos and love them
This is one of my favourite videos you have made! I love to hear the benefits and reasons about decluttering. It reminds me of my own reasons and refocuses me on my goals. I’m very slow at this and have been at it for 5 years now but I keep moving the bar! The less I own the less I want to own. Thanks for the inspiration to keep going! Xx
I love this video content! I am so guilty in mindlessly spending bc I bought little things on sale...you don't need more space or money, you need to learn to manage.....I have begun the process & listen to your videos while I declutter and clean....it's endlessly beneficial, thank you for being so relatable 💜 🙌
Since I started decluttering it's been so much easier to actually enjoy the different spaces of my home, I find that I'm less stressed and I've stopped wasting so much time because it's easier to keep my home tidy :) Thanks for the inspiration to keep simplifying!
Great video
CZcams really needs to recommend your channel to more people feel like you deserve more subscribers you give such great advice and I love following channel I think I've been here for a year and a half
You are SO kind! Thank you!!! And I'm so grateful for your support! It means so much!
Yes, less stuff is definitely more peaceful!! All around Great list! ☺️
Recently, we've moved every 2-5 years. SO very much easier to accomplish when you keep your stuff to a reasonable level. I'm constantly working to 'finish with' (use up, read up etc) the remaining things so that the next move (probably 2023) will be easier again. :)
I decluttered two drawers of craft supplies last week. When I needed a certain tool I immediately knew where it was. I was able to start using it within one minute of needing it!! Thanks for your honesty in your minimalist journey. It's helps me to continue along with you!!
That is awesome! And I'm happy to share!
I love it! Best regards from Ania from Poland
Thank you for watching!
When someone stops by... omg I can sooo relate to the way you used to feel! That is exactly how I feel now.
Ahhh yes!!! Just decluttering a little in the main area can make a HUGE difference!
Red is a great color for you.
I just canceled things, stuff....junk I had ordered on Amazon. Thanks for clarifying.
I was a minimalist before it was a trend and had a name.
I have been working on decluttering for a while now. We moved from a 2100 square foot house to a 1300. Needless to say, we had to get rid of sooo much stuff! We are loving our new lifestyle. The house is cleaner and we have more money for other things. My next big decluttering project is my classroom. Teachers tend to hold on to so much stuff that “they might use.” Also some things we aren’t allowed to toss. It’s going to be interesting.
The teacher thing is SO TRUE! I taught 1st and 3rd and held on to SOO MUCH!! I got rid of 99% of it and felt so liberated!
My Mom and I can relate to being embarrassed when someone would drop by on a moments notice because of the home not being tidy. I have started to downsize.
This video really speaks to me. I always say the one thing I miss about pre kid life is being able to sit down and read a book . I miss it so much. I've just started my decluttering journey, and I keep getting frustrated because its slow work with three kids and a job. I really just want t to relax in a clear space and read a book.
I quit shopping about 3 years ago, have decluttered a ton but still have so far to go. Moving in with my bf 2 years ago and now figuring out our joint items, duplicate items, his stuff needs/wants, my stuff needs/wants... has made it more of a challenge but slowly getting there. Hoping by the next time we move that we will have no more than half of what we had before moving in together. Hopefully even just 25% remaining!
Can you show us how you decorate your new house for spring?
I really didn't do much...just added 2 blue pillows in the living room!
Like your content - would be nice for you to share your minimal make-up, always love your makeup and would like to know what you use. Also cleaning products 😁
yes! when I got pregnant with my first before I knew that I was pregnant I was going through our home saying I'm done with all this stuff, if you love it you better hide it lol. ever since I have been going about getting rid of the things that just hover around, I still have a long way to go but I noticed immediately how less stressed I felt by having it gone.
Fast fashion and fast decor are the WORST!!! So tempting. I have learned not to even go look at dollar stores,spots and garage sales. You are unique. There is only one so nobody can be just like you and you cant be like anyone else. Its impossible. so stop trying. you are so beautiful and your house is beautiful. because you love it not others. Love your ch and love watching you.
You look amazing in red!!!! What color is that lipstick, please?! 💄💋
We are getting our house ready to sell!!!!! Such an exciting time in our lives, but we are planning on getting a bigger house. Our current house is 820 sq ft and only 2 bedrooms. We have a son and a daughter so it’s time they have their own room!!! We are crammed in this house so badly and I have decluttered a lot, but more is to leave this house!! It feels so amazing to get rid of things and have the space free!!!! Love watching your videos!!!! So inspiring!!!
Hi beauty. Love your video. Your nail looks beauty in red❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much!!
Good stuff! I'm wondering if she has a video talking about her all white ascetic. So pretty in video and pictures. But I'm wondering how it feels IRL.
All excellent points and is anybody told you how fabulous you looking red?!
Yesss I’m always stressed when my house is all cluttered. Which is always 😭😭😭
Maybe to create a clutter free corner of peace would help u with stress at first. Then it will „contaminate“ you and piece by piece u will bring the next corner to a level up 😊
I bet you get this all the time, but you look like Demi Lovato!! 💕💕 Just started watching you and I love your videos
Weird questions what type of counter tops do you have.
I never even wanted 98% of what I bought. Just the high of buying it. I still struggle at times.

I love the minimalism lifestyle. It just makes life easier and makes your wallet fatter. 😁
Where would you suggest I start minimizing at?
I suggest starting in a high impact area like the pantry or bedroom closet. Somewhere that will make a BIG difference day one!! These projects can be more overwhelming, so if you don't have time for something like that right now, just start by decluttering a shelf or a drawer. Little bits of decluttering add up FAST!!!
I am still in the beginning, but I am wondering how you got your kids and your husband involved? dont want to make them "believers", but I do need their support by getting rid of stuff that belongs to them as well.. like (at least) 50% of the toys.. if I pick one up that wasnt used since months all of a sudden it is the most important toy again.. :(
Oh man. All those CZcams hauls online. It sucked me in too. It was such a thing for awhile! No more! Very freeing not to be a part of it anymore!
You are lovely. You look like a blond Demi Lovato!
Your walls need some color
Her home is beautiful and clean. Love calm, neutral walls.
