Start with your own stuff.

So this!
Start with your things and spaces. Maybe do some digital decluttering, too. Then move on to shared spaces, like kitchen, bathrooms, etc.
In my household, I am the fixer upper and yard keeper. I approach tools, equipment, etc. from a minimalist perspective. My spouse is the food preparer, so I don’t push things too hard with the kitchen. I have a capsule wardrobe and use relatively small amount of space in our shared closet and dresser. Overall, “my stuff” is easy to manage.
I had to let go of being a minimalist family. But…my approach to life and things has started to shift our household’s approach.
