I really enjoyed this book because it offered practical, actionable solutions that acknowledged the REALITY of living with a partner. So many organizing books seem to forget that you might have a partner who is perfectly happy living like a borderline hoarder and will not get on board with your new edits and systems. Colette, on the other hand, gives guidance for REAL people in REAL couples- and she does it with humor and heart...

Clutter has been a constant struggle for me and my partner. We have been stuck in a loop of my frustration at their clutter and their inability to understand its impact on me. We found the holy grail in this book—self-help at its finest…This is the best guide out there for not only tidying up/organizing but also navigating communication around it with your partner. I can't recommend this book enough.

Living together is a big life transition...
Choosing to move in with your partner can bring a cozy sweetness, delightful new habits, and a sense of security that you may have never experienced before. However, it can also reveal the differences in how each of you prefers to live: your approaches to spending time and money, cleaning preferences, temperature settings, and the amount of belongings you both want to bring into the shared space.
These are just a FEW factors to consider about each other to make the transition smoother and address any false expectations you may have. We all know that unspoken expectations can lead to friction, which can lead to conflict, and that my friends can open a whole can of worms since most of us have no idea how to navigate conflict effectively.
To assist you in this next phase of your relationship, I've created a comprehensive Compatibility Questionnaire. This tool will help you learn more about each other as you design your shared living space.
One of the beautiful benefits of gaining a deeper understanding of each other is that it can open up lines of communication, which is crucial for navigating any differences that arise.

FRUSTRATION
Many people experience subtle or even overt frustration with their partner, especially when it comes to household clutter. If this is you, I want to inform you that your frustration is completely valid. Your brain is working hard to restore a sense of calm, attempting to bring order to the chaos around you in hopes to regulate your nervous system. However, while this may be YOUR natural instinct, it might not be your partner’s priority—or even on their radar. This can cause a lot of tension within your relationship.
Possible Remedy:
Set Clear and Manageable Boundaries
Rather than expecting your partner to match your standards, it would be better to establish clear agreements in particular zones of the house.
For example, designate specific shared areas as clutter-free spaces and agree on a maintenance routine that you both are responsible for. Small changes you agree to can prevent resentment.
ARGUMENTS
Whether you're openly arguing about clutter or silently avoiding the elephant in the room (or in every room), feeling stuck in how you want to live in your home can be frustrating. However, understanding why clutter accumulates in the first place can be the key to creating real solutions.
Possible Remedy:
DISCONNECTION
When clutter creates conflict in your relationship, it can leave both of you feeling disconnected, frustrated, and alone. The emotional weight of a chaotic home can lead to confusion, disappointment, and even a loss of intimacy. But the good news is that working together to address clutter isn’t just about tidying up—it’s about rebuilding trust, respect, and attraction. By shifting your approach from conflict to collaboration, you can transform your space and your connection.
Two Compelling Solutions:
1. Turn Decluttering into a Bonding Ritual
Instead of seeing clutter as a battleground, make it a shared experience. Set aside time each week to declutter together—play music, pour a glass of wine, or make it a playful challenge. When you shift the energy from obligation to connection, you create a sense of teamwork and shared purpose, strengthening your bond in the process.
2. Create a Clutter-Free Sanctuary for Intimacy
Designate at least one space in your home—like your bedroom—as a clutter-free zone. Make it a priority to keep this space peaceful and inviting, free from stress-inducing mess. A clean, calming environment naturally fosters emotional and physical intimacy, helping you both reconnect and focus on each other rather than the distractions around you.
