Declutter with purpose.
A simple, step-by-step approach to keep what you value and let go of what you don’t.
Why stewardship matters
Stewardship is caring for what you’ve been given—time, space, and belongings—so they serve your life, not weigh it down.
Actionable Stewardship
Use this five-step loop whenever you declutter:
-
1. Set a boundary
Choose one drawer, one shelf, or 15 minutes.
-
2. Sort honestly
Keep, donate, recycle, or discard—no “maybe” pile.
-
3. Return with intention
Put items where you’ll use them. Store by frequency.
-
4. Release responsibly
Donate what’s usable, recycle what isn’t, and trash the rest.
-
5. Maintain lightly
One in, one out. Review monthly.
