INTRODUCING
Tackle The Hoard: An Extreme Cleanout Field Guide for Hoarded Homes
This Self-paced Program proves clearing out a hoarded home doesn’t need to take months or years. My fool-proof techniques explain time-saving strategies for downsizing huge hoards in one week’s time. It has been separated into three easily digestible
PART ONE
Pre-Work
The first segment teaches an amateur to inspect a hoarded home through the eyes of a decluttering expert. Starting with how to analyze a hoard and asking the important questions: Start with the end in mind, what would success look like?
PART TWO
Exit Strategies
Next, we really get into the heart of what to do with the hoard. You will have access to the tactics I developed and perfected that separate the hoard from the hoarder and breaks down even the largest projects into manageable, bite-sized pieces. This includes replacing the standard philosophy of “take everything to the dumpster” with a better, healthier, and more sustainable approach to clearing out a hoard.
PART THREE
Clean-Up Days
There will be no guesswork left! You will finish this course confident that you know exactly where to start, will be able to make important decisions such as selecting the first space to clear out, how to stay healthy in a dangerous environment, and how to enlist help in order to reduce the burden of clearing out a cluttered home.

Sometimes doing it all in the same day! As an adventure and travel-loving country girl, she sees each day as an opportunity to learn something new and share her knowledge and experiences with colleagues, in her Facebook groups, and with team members working on the set of Hoarders.
When she is not thinking about downsizing and decluttering, you’ll find her on the tennis court, cooking plant-based meals in her super-organized kitchen, or hiking and chilling out on her farm in central Virginia with her husband and rescue dogs.
