Your Virtual Decluttering Advice Column for Neurodivergents, Active Seniors & Those in Life Transitions
Real Questions. Compassionate Answers.
For Neurodivergent Families, Active Seniors, & Those in Life Transitions.
Hey there, friend. 👋🏽
I’m Wendy Zanders, Your Declutter Coach, and I know decluttering can feel like a mountain — especially if you’re navigating ADHD, Autism, Depression/Overwhelm, supporting a Neurodivergent child, going through divorce or major life changes, or you are an active senior who wants to remain independent and age in place.
Take a deep breath. You’re in the right place. 💙
Here in Ask Wendy, you’ll find real, judgment-free answers to the questions people ask every day — from “Where do I even start decluttering?” to the deeper challenges that show up inside your home, routines, and daily life.
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about understanding the why and how behind the clutter so you can create systems that support your brain, your family, and your season of life.
Whether you’re a Neurodivergent adult, a parent raising a Neurodivergent child, an Active Senior, or someone going through a life transition, I’m here to help you Simplify, Organize & Thrive — one step at a time.
