More than a guide to tidying up, What Stays and What Goes is a call to realign your space with your spirit. With equal parts strategy and soul, Faith Roberson invites readers to reimagine home organization as an act of radical self-awareness--in releasing clutter we reflect our personal truth, values, and growth.
Professional organizer Faith Roberson invites readers to embark on a journey of self-discovery through the art of home organization. Forget the traditional tidying trends you've seen before--Roberson's innovative approach to "soul work" goes deeper, asking important questions, like "Is this really what I want, or is this what I think I should want?" and "Does my home reflect who I am?"
Roberson's method is holistic, blending the practical act of organizing with emotional considerations. She shows how to shed unnecessary belongings and create spaces that nurture your emotional well-being and reflect your individuality. Packed with questionnaires, worksheets, and solutions to common organizational challenges, this book is a guide to transforming not just your home, but your beliefs about it.
What Stays and What Goes also explores domesticity within a broader sociopolitical history, shedding light on how housework has been undervalued and often relegated to women. By unpacking these historical narratives, Roberson empowers readers to reclaim homemaking as a meaningful act of affirmation and self-care.
With her warm and relatable voice, Roberson weaves in personal anecdotes and real-life client stories, illustrating how decluttering can lead to profound growth. What Stays and What Goes is your guide to creating a home--and a life--that is intentional.
