127: The Problem Isn’t the Clutter, It’s the Question: Are You Asking the Right Question?
Update: 2025-06-23
Description
In this episode, we explore why getting organized often has less to do with stuff—and more to do with the questions we’re asking ourselves. Whether it's searching on Google, using ChatGPT, or trying to help a loved one decide what to keep, progress depends on how we frame the problem. We talk about the subtle power of shifting from judgment-based questions to curiosity-led ones, and how asking better questions can unlock momentum in our organizing, decluttering, and downsizing journeys.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Why vague or emotionally loaded questions can keep us stuck
- How search engines and AI tools like ChatGPT reflect the power of well-worded questions
- A practical framework to rephrase common organizing questions for better clarity and action
Mentioned in this episode:
- A “Question Makeover” cheat sheet for reframing stuck points during organizing
- Real-world examples of how better questions lead to faster decluttering decisions
- A free download: Better Questions to Ask When You’re Stuck
