Dear Reader,
A season of change affects not only our inner lives but also our external world—especially our homes.
I've walked through numerous life changes. After my divorce, I prepared our family home to sell, let go of nearly half our belongings, and moved into a smaller place. Years later, I sorted through another layer of memories as each of my four children grew up and established homes of their own. And after my father passed away, I once again faced the tender work of deciding what to preserve, what to pass along, and what I was ready to release.
I’m a writer, editor, and mother of grown children and nine grandchildren. I created Making Room from lived experience—for anyone who wants to create a lighter, more clutter-free home while also honoring what came before.
You don't have to erase the past to make room for the present. You can honor what mattered, keep what is truly meaningful, and allow your home to change with you.
If any of this resonates, I wrote this book for you.
Here’s to making room for what matters most.
