Get Organised With DeCluttr Me (Shelina Jokhiya - DeCluttr Me )

Kids and adults love dressing up - whether it is for Halloween, a retro party or an afternoon of fun with friends, it’s always fun to dress up. I used to dress up like Wonder Woman and a Nurse when I was growing up. There was a limit to the costumes in the 80s but now it is so easy to get them online and in stores. You can be every Marvel or DC character every day of the week, it is that easy. Dressing up may be fun, but dealing with the various bits and pieces of the costumes can be overwhelming for all after a while. I have decluttered and organised a few costume cabinets and chests over the years and thought I would share my experiences with you today. Thank you for listening to this new episode. If you enjoyed listening to the show, please press like and share it with your friends and family.

Thanks for listening as always. x Shelina ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Originally from the UK, Shelina has lived in Dubai for over 18 years, where she founded her home and office organising company DeCluttr Me. Previously a solicitor, Shelina knew her heart was elsewhere. She never gave up on her dream of becoming a professional organiser and decided to take the leap, launching DeCluttr Me in 2013, the region’s first licenced, professional organising service. Shortly after, Shelina launched her highly successful DeCluttr Me podcast, now one of the top 20% of podcasts worldwide. In 2022, the total downloads increased to 41,800 from 29,600 in 2021. Her first book “Can You Find it in Five Seconds?” was a natural next step on her mission to helping people lead more relaxed, motivated, and productive lives – free of clutter! 2023 marks a decade in business for Shelina and she’s seen demand for decluttering increase significantly. Plus, she’s realised how the service goes beyond simply organising for many people. Having a large amount of clutter can also be a sign of mental health issues or someone struggling with their emotional well-being. Shelina helps many clients who are going through a difficult period, such as divorce and bereavement; often, dealing with an accumulation of possessions is one of the first steps they take on the journey to rebuilding their life.

I often have clients feel judge by their family, their friends, husbands, maids and strangers about buying too much, keeping items at home and/or being cluttered.

Firstly, I want to apologise for my husky voice today. I had COVID (yep it finally got me) and my voice went funny. That is also why there was no new episode last week so sorry about that. Due to COVID I am feeling incredibly tired and lethargic, so I wanted to get myself and help you as well. Feeling lethargic is not something new for many people especially in the last 2 years. It has been hard for people to get out of their funk and to be normal again. You may be feeling lethargic for other reasons, whether mentally and physically and I wanted to share some tips to help you get out of the funk. Have a listen to this new episode and let me know what you think. I have a favour to ask today, would you be able to write a short review on the podcast on your favourite player. This will help me get up the rankings and get more listeners. Just a short one would be amazing. Thank you so much in advance!

In this episode of Get Organised with Decluttr Me, I’m exploring how modern decluttering trends can actually cause more stress than relief. While we all love the look of perfectly organised homes on social media, the pressure to achieve that level of minimalism can be overwhelming. From decision fatigue to the guilt of letting go or holding onto items, decluttering sometimes turns into a stressful process rather than a freeing one.

I’ll be breaking down why these feelings happen and sharing practical tips on how to declutter in a way that feels personal and less overwhelming. It’s time to let go of the pressure for perfection and focus on creating a space that truly works for you. Let’s declutter mindfully, without all the unnecessary stress! Tune in for my insights and tips to help you enjoy the decluttering process.

Welcome back to 'Get Organised with Decluttr Me'. I'm your host, Shelina, and in today's episode, we're tackling a common clutter hotspot: the junk drawer.

Join me as we embark on the first session of our mini-declutter series. We'll explore why junk drawers become clutter magnets and how to transform them into functional spaces. From preparing your sorting tools to the final touches of organising, I'll guide you through each step, ensuring you have a neat and tidy drawer by the end of our time together.

In this episode, we’ll discuss why junk drawers exist and how they reflect our busy lifestyles. We'll delve into the common items that end up in these drawers and how to categorise them effectively. I’ll share my favourite tips and tricks for decluttering, including using drawer dividers and repurposed containers to keep everything in its place. Plus, we’ll cover the importance of regular maintenance to prevent clutter from creeping back in.

I am thrilled to have you with me on this decluttering journey. Whether you’re a long-time listener or tuning in for the first time, your support means the world to me. If you find this episode helpful, please subscribe, like, or follow the podcast on your preferred platform and share it with friends.

Also, don't forget to take a before-and-after photo of your junk drawer. It’s always motivating to see the transformation and it can encourage everyone in your household to keep the drawer organised.

If you would like to buy any items I mentioned in the episode, you can find them in my Amazon shop (currently for UAE, UK or USA Amazon shops).

Tune in, get motivated, and let’s conquer that junk drawer together.

Happy organising!

This week I wanted to focus on the kitchen and in particular on the kitchen zones. The kitchen is a major hub of all houses – you, your family, flatmates, maid - have to go in there at least once a day to find food, drinks and other things (if you store junk in there as well). Making sure that everything is away properly in your kitchen, ensures that you can find your items in less than five seconds moving forward.

Today, let's have a candid chat about shifting from fast fashion to investing in quality clothing and accessories. 🛍️✨ I've shared my thoughts on the pitfalls of fast fashion in previous episodes (listen to episode 177 here), and it's time to delve deeper.

In this episode, I spill the beans on my personal style journey and the decision to embrace quality over quantity. 🌟 From UK and European brands to my favourite high street finds, I'll reveal where I shop for timeless pieces that stand the test of time. Join me on this style adventure, and let's explore the world of sustainable, chic fashion together! 👗🌿 This episode is brought to you by PAN Home. PAN Emirates is now Pan Home.

This week I wanted to talk about a new type of clutter that has erupted… the Home Edit clutter. The Home Edit is owned by two sucessful professional organisers based in the USA. They have a successful company, books, tv show and products which are sold in Walmart and the Container Store. I can’t hate on them, but I have got issues with their “organising with style ethos”, specificially the rainbow colouring and over use of boxes. So this week I wanted to talk about that and the alternatives to their options. I would be amiss to not mention my collab with A’ish Home.
