Downsize Your Stuff to
Upsize Your Life!
Shedding stuff means living more simply.
It can free up money and time to enjoy life
more. In this interactive class learn how to
work through the emotional blocks to letting
go, and get lots of practical strategies for
making it happen. The time to downsize
comes for some people when they’re
preparing to move into a smaller home. For
others, it’s the wish not to burden their adult
children with all the trappings of their life.
And still others downsize simply because
they want the freedom that comes with
letting go of accumulated possessions.
Lisa
McIntyre
, once a professional organizer,
downsized from a Washington Park home
to a tiny home on wheels. She traveled the
back roads of America several times, going
to 49 of our 50 states and is making plans
to hit the road again. Lisa is writing a book
,
Living Small and Being Whole
,
to share her
experiences and tips.
