HOW TO DE-CRAPIFY Your Life CLEARING OUT THE CRAP PHYSICALLY, DIETARILY, AND EMOTIONALLY by Jenn Baxter L ast night, I was chatting with my BFF about the biz and the new membership program I am building (which btw, you have a MAJOR say in... you can let me know what you want right here) and she said, “You basically help people cut all the crap out of their life.
