Take the Stress Out of Christmas
How To Slow Down and Enjoy Yourself this Year
Don’t let another December fly by…
- Rushing around making obligated appearances,
- Squeezing in extra shopping on your lunch break,
- Being too busy to enjoy the season,
- And ending up feeling empty after the holidays.
This year make Christmas better.
While everyone else is running around shopping and going to events they don’t want to attend; you’ll be having the best Christmas ever.
Picture this:
- You, the stress-free host—opening up your home for casual holiday get-togethers everyone loves.
- With margin in your schedule to stay balanced and feel normal through the
busiesthappiest time of year. - Politely declining invitations and events (and not feeling guilty about it) so you can spend more time with your family.
- Giving and getting meaningful gifts that will be used and enjoyed, not random stuff that turns into clutter before New Year’s Eve.
- Making memories with your favorite people so you can end the season feeling whole—filled with love and gratitude.
As Christmas draws near, your girlfriends will beg to know your secrets. How are you so calm and upbeat while they feel like The Grinch? (Of course, you could send them to this page and save their Christmases too—after all, what are friends for?)

Hi, I’m Jackie
The idea for Clutterproof Your Christmas came to me in August. I know, seriously, who starts thinking about Christmas in the summer?! But, you see, we had just moved across the country and downsized to an apartment less than half the size of our old house. The decluttering process to get rid of over half our stuff was emotional and time-consuming, and I never want to go through that again. So, I’m determined to keep clutter out of our home and our lives.
I’ve become obsessed with clutterproofing—developing habits, routines, and strategies to keep clutter away. As I thought about Christmas, I realized we were already ahead of the game. For years, we’ve been using these four strategies to keep the holidays simple and clutter-free. Clutterproof Your Christmas is the first of what I hope will be many resources to help you simplify your home and life. I wanted to get this guide out to you first because (yikes!) Christmas is less than 25 days away.
