The Emotions Behind Downsizing Our Stuff (Marie Kondo Konmari Method)

We weren't planning to do a video about our downsizing from 6,000 square feet to 25 square feet until we were all done. How did we downsize our stuff? What did we keep? Those sorts of questions will be addressed later.

THIS video is about the emotions behind downsizing your stuff. With the popularity of Marie Kondo and her Konmari method, reducing your clutter is a huge trend. While we hear many stories about the freedom downsizing provides once it's all done, we don't see much about the difficulty of the process. It's hard saying goodbye to your things and it's unique to each person.

This video is a few minutes longer than we'd like. We hope you'll watch, anyway!

About us...we are Tim and Amy and we retired early (in our 40s) after reducing our expenses by $6,500 a month. Now, our big splurges tend to be travel and health-related versus stuff.

Please check out our other videos. They cover house sitting, award travel/travel hacking, and our early retirement/FIRE (financially independent, retired early). And, of course, travel! Lots of our videos show the fun stuff we do on a budget around the world.
