Letting Go of Low Self Worth Items

In her podcast, “The School of Intention,” author Dana Claudat talks about how “low self-worth items,” which is anything that lingers past its expiration, can subtly drag down our energy, self-worth, and confidence. It’s the opposite of sparking joy. Letting go of these things raises your self-esteem and says to the Universe ‘I deserve better than this! I am no longer settling.”

These often-small things that lift you up rather than pull you down, can subtly shift the energy that determines the quality of our lives.

Let’s take a look at your closet. Stained tops, dresses with bad memories, sweaters that need mending, or a collection of lone socks are all affirmations that you’re not worth better. What you settle for is what you end up with, even if it’s making you feel bad.

While letting go of low-self-worth items might seem like a small step, the benefits can be profound. After a closet edit, our clients report physical and emotional transformations – feeling stronger, lighter, clearer, and more confident. A proper closet edit transcends mere organization, offering a transformative decluttering experience, making both literal and metaphorical space for better things.

And, a well-edited closet not only provides mental clarity and reduces decision fatigue but also encourages mindful spending, resulting in more thoughtful purchases more aligned with your style goals.

So, as we begin a new year, why not envision a life where every item in your closet reflects your inherent worthiness? Make room for the beautiful, empowering things that reflect the extraordinary person you are. The journey starts with letting go.

BECKIE+MARTINA DIY CLOSET EDIT

1) Pull everything from your closet out onto your bed (we mean every single thing.)

2) Immediately hang back without even thinking every piece you love and works well for you. You know the ones – you wish you’d bought multiples of because when you wear them you don’t doubt for one minute that you own the room. Those pieces.

3) Now go back to the bed and consider what’s left and hang back only the functional pieces that you might not LOVE but do a job (trench coat/black pant/blazer). If you’re a devout Marie Kondo follower, you might be wondering about the pieces that “spark Joy.” The truth is, not every raincoat sparks joy, but everyone needs something to wear in the rain. And not everything that sparks joy should be worn out in public – but that’s another article.

4) Now, for the last time, go back to the pile and consider tossing what’s left. Give it to a friend (if you really think they’ll like it), donate it or get a return on your investment and call The Real Real to come pick up. Especially if you’re holding onto it out of guilt because it is a so-and-so designer or was $$$.

So if you think starting in your closet is too insignificant a step or has nothing to do with your higher, loftier goals, we have a challenge: Try this and prove us wrong. Clothes reflect what we want to project on the outside and feel on the inside. And the rest will follow.
