1
00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Let's say good morning now to the host of Home

2
00:00:02.399 --> 00:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>on KFI, the house whisperer, Dean Sharp. Dean, I so

3
00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:10.599
<v Speaker 1>need to hear what you have to say about this sorting, inventory,

4
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:13.560
<v Speaker 1>purging and storing. I need a good purach.

5
00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:17.120
<v Speaker 2>And most of us do. Most of us need to purge.

6
00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:19.839
<v Speaker 2>And that's really the problem is that we get so

7
00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:21.440
<v Speaker 2>attached to our stuff.

8
00:00:21.719 --> 00:00:24.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and it's just stuff, but we're just like, oh,

9
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I could save that, Oh I might need that one day,

10
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:28.440
<v Speaker 1>and then five years later you're like, I still don't

11
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:29.800
<v Speaker 1>need it, but I better keep it.

12
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:33.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you know that, of course, there's a there's

13
00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:37.840
<v Speaker 2>a factor to holding on to stuff that actually gets

14
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:43.679
<v Speaker 2>into you know, mental illness. And that's not what we're dressing. Well,

15
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:48.439
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm just saying Friday the thirteenth and all. Yeah, uh,

16
00:00:48.799 --> 00:00:53.520
<v Speaker 2>but that's not what we're trying to tackle on Sunday Show.

17
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:55.880
<v Speaker 2>But what we are trying to tackle is the fact

18
00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 2>that we all get very, very attached to things. And

19
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:04.560
<v Speaker 2>it's just it's a human tendency to want to hold

20
00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:08.840
<v Speaker 2>on to nostalgia, to hold on to memorabilia and just

21
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:13.439
<v Speaker 2>the stuff, the things that remind us of days that

22
00:01:13.480 --> 00:01:16.359
<v Speaker 2>were great, and as a result of that, we all

23
00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:19.680
<v Speaker 2>have too much stuff, we really do. And this is

24
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:22.959
<v Speaker 2>a way that I've developed over the years of helping

25
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:27.599
<v Speaker 2>clients kind of let go of things. It kind of

26
00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:32.000
<v Speaker 2>under cuts our emotional attachment to things. That makes it

27
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.519
<v Speaker 2>a little easier. It's not fool proof, but it makes

28
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:36.920
<v Speaker 2>it a little easier. And that's the order that you

29
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:40.480
<v Speaker 2>go about doing things as you clean out and clear

30
00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:44.159
<v Speaker 2>out and organize things. And it starts with sorting, which

31
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:48.200
<v Speaker 2>is non judgmental. We're not making any judgments. We're not

32
00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:51.200
<v Speaker 2>deciding to get rid of anything yet, but we're just

33
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:55.400
<v Speaker 2>separating things into their own piles. And I use the

34
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:57.480
<v Speaker 2>example I think in the note that I gave you

35
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:01.640
<v Speaker 2>of socks. You know, if you're just going through clothes,

36
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:03.879
<v Speaker 2>you run into socks every once in a while, and

37
00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:06.680
<v Speaker 2>the tendency is like, oh, yeah, I remember the Yeah,

38
00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:08.599
<v Speaker 2>these are nice socks, and you just set them aside.

39
00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:12.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to keep those. But until socks become their

40
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:17.719
<v Speaker 2>own pile, you don't actually realize whether you've got just

41
00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:20.240
<v Speaker 2>a few or whether you have you know, I don't know,

42
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:25.080
<v Speaker 2>forty seven pairs and night unmatched singles, right, yeah, yeah,

43
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:29.000
<v Speaker 2>at point a pile like that, it's easier for us

44
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:32.319
<v Speaker 2>to look at and say, all right, well, hey, nobody

45
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:36.360
<v Speaker 2>needs forty seven pairs of socks. I need to kind

46
00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:38.560
<v Speaker 2>of take a look at what I've got and purge

47
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:40.400
<v Speaker 2>some of them along the way. And if we do

48
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:42.919
<v Speaker 2>that with most of the things that we're attached to,

49
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:46.000
<v Speaker 2>we really can be successful getting rid of a lot

50
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:50.439
<v Speaker 2>of stuff and then storing what is left. And that's

51
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:54.360
<v Speaker 2>a whole another side to this whole thing. I always

52
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:58.879
<v Speaker 2>say this, there's storing comes into two forms, staging and

53
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:02.280
<v Speaker 2>long term. And as a designer of homes, I will

54
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:05.479
<v Speaker 2>tell you this, the best advice, the most stage advice

55
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:09.400
<v Speaker 2>I can give to you about your closets inside the

56
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:14.400
<v Speaker 2>house is that closets are for staging, not storing. And

57
00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:18.120
<v Speaker 2>staging simply means that what's ever in your closet is

58
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:22.560
<v Speaker 2>there because it is something that is quite often used.

59
00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:26.879
<v Speaker 2>It's just a staging area for often used things. If

60
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:30.159
<v Speaker 2>it's not something that gets used often, then that's storage.

61
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:32.479
<v Speaker 2>That's long term. And we got to figure out crates

62
00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:34.159
<v Speaker 2>and shelving and all that kind of stuff.

63
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I don't know about you, but I but Dean,

64
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.360
<v Speaker 1>I so need this, and so when are you talking

65
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:40.639
<v Speaker 1>about this?

66
00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:43.439
<v Speaker 2>Sunday morning, Sunday, it's going to be Sunday Show, the

67
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:45.520
<v Speaker 2>Big Show from nine to noon.

68
00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:49.879
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so it's if you call it the SIPs program, Sort, inventory,

69
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:52.680
