  • Tracy McCubbin on Decluttering, Life Transitions & Building a Business
    Mar 16 2026

    Welcome back to Wilder Possibilities, hosted by Shelton Wilder — luxury Los Angeles Realtor, CEO, and female entrepreneur.

    Today’s episode features Tracy McCubbin, founder of dClutterfly, a home organizing and move management company.

    Tracy is someone we often recommend to sellers who need help organizing, decluttering, and preparing their homes before putting them on the market — so I’m especially excited to share her story.

    In this conversation, Tracy shares how her early life experiences shaped her instinct for creating order, and how that skill eventually turned into a thriving business. After working as a personal assistant in Los Angeles, Tracy began helping friends organize their homes and quickly realized there was a real demand for professional organizing.

    What started as a handful of organizing jobs grew into dClutterfly, a company that now helps clients declutter, downsize, move, and manage life transitions with clarity and support.

    We dive into:

    • Tracy’s upbringing and how chaos led her toward organization
    • Her early career in Los Angeles after leaving the entertainment industry
    • Realizing professional organizing could become a business
    • Launching dClutterfly and gaining early momentum through Daily Candy
    • Building a team and expanding services beyond simple organizing
    • Helping families through major transitions like downsizing and estate cleanouts
    • Scaling the company through franchising and new locations

    If you love entrepreneurial journeys, organizing, home transitions, scaling service businesses, and creating order from chaos, you’ll love this episode.
