Accountability and Community: Why You Don’t Have to Do It Alone
When I first started decluttering, I thought I had to do it all by myself. I told myself I should be able to handle it, that asking for help meant I wasn’t strong enough. And deep down, I also thought, “This must be easier for everyone else but me.” That belief kept me stuck for a long time.
The biggest shifts in my journey didn’t happen when I was silently struggling on my own. They happened when I found support and community. When I showed up with others, shared my small wins, and let people cheer me on, I realized I wasn’t the only one carrying the weight of “too much.”
That’s the power of accountability and community.
🌿 Accountability keeps you moving. When you know you’re going to share your progress with someone, you’re more likely to take that next small step.
🌿 Community makes it fun. Decluttering piles of paper or folding laundry may not sound exciting, but doing it alongside others who are also showing up makes it lighter.
🌿 Support builds confidence. Every time you hear someone else say, “I get it,” or “I’ve been there too,” it reminds you that you’re not failing, you’re human.
I’ve seen this ripple through my own groups again and again. Someone will share that they finally cleared their nightstand or finished sorting a stack of papers, and suddenly, everyone else feels motivated to do the same. One person’s courage sparks another’s. One win becomes contagious.
Decluttering can feel lonely if you try to carry it all by yourself. But when you bring your journey into community, you realize you’re never alone. You have people who see you, understand you, and want to celebrate with you.
If you’ve been feeling stuck or isolated, I want to invite you to join us inside the Creating Space Community. It’s a safe, supportive space where we celebrate wins, share struggles, and remind each other that we’re not walking this journey alone.

''I highly recommend her for your
next organizational project!''
''Everyone needs a non-judgmental “best friend” who will work shoulder-to-shoulder with you as you work toward your organizational goals. Julie is that best friend. In the kindest and gentlest way, Julie helped me work through a large project in smaller, more manageable tasks. She kept me focused on the task at hand, dealing with both the physical and emotional attachment I had with some of the items I had held on to for much too long. Whether it’s a short-term or long-term project, Julie can help you get to the finish line! I highly recommend her for your next organizational project!'' - Kathy

''She opened my mind to new tools and strategies into my daily life''
''My experience with Julie was incredible. She is a kind, calming, safe space. I enjoyed the exercise we did together. It really help me view my emotions from a different perspective. She knew what questions to ask and how to help me analyze my feelings. She’s educated in what she does. I would love to do it again with her!! She opened my mind to new tools and strategies into my daily life. ❤️❤️❤️''- Kate

''It quickly gave me perspective on how I allow my emotions take control''
''The exercise was quick and effective. It quickly gave me perspective on how I allow my emotions take control. It’s interesting how I had immediate answers to the questions I was asked. I can only speak for myself, but this changed my thoughts for that day and I was present. I did continue to think about the exercise the following day and tried to remember how I felt when I answered the questions. I believe it was effective. I plan on using that exercise or at least remember what I answered when I feel like I’m spiraling or overthinking my thoughts'' - Maritza

''I feel about myself and take care of myself is related to so many aspects of my life, including my relationships and decluttering my home.''
''Being in this community with Julie’s guidance has helped me to understand about Self Care and Self Love, two concepts that were very foreign to me. I get it know, and I’m learning more all the time about how the way I feel about myself and take care of myself is related to so many aspects of my life, including my relationships and decluttering my home.'' - Laura
