Hey Clutterbugs! Decluttering, organizing, and mindset shifts are the real foundation of a tidy home—and I’m getting brutally honest about all three today. I’m sharing 46 life lessons that will help you get organized, stop feeling behind, and make decisions faster (without trying to become a whole new person).

It’s my birthday, I did the math (yes, I’m actually 46), and I’m celebrating by handing you the stuff I wish I knew sooner—about confidence, perfectionism, money, boundaries, happiness, and why everything you own is work. We talk about how “good enough” beats perfect, why you can’t plan your way into progress, how tiny consistent steps matter more than big dramatic overhauls, and the truth nobody wants to hear: you probably won’t miss most of what you declutter—but you will regret what clutter has cost you.

Hey Clutterbugs! Today is about decluttering tips and home organization systems to match your current season of life. If your life has changed but your home hasn’t, you’re probably feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and tempted to shop for “solutions” instead of update your systems. We’re going to talk about why your home isn’t a museum—it’s a living organism that has to evolve as you do. I walk you through the seasons of life (solo starter, early family/merging households, “city girl” single-income leveling up, school-age chaos, career sprint/burnout prevention, boomerang kids, empty nest feelings, and downsizing) and the exact shifts your home needs in each stage. We’ll cover how to identify your current “dominant energy,” how to declutter what no longer fits your life now, and how to build simple, low-friction systems so your home stops feeling like a part-time job. You’ll also hear my real talk on scarcity mindset, why “filling the space” too fast can lead to debt and clutter, how container limits protect your budget, and why every item you let go of gives you something you can’t buy: time. Plus, I’ll challenge you to declutter two guest-notice zones (bathroom + kitchen) so you can feel proud of your space immediately—especially with the holidays coming.

Hey Clutterbugs! Overconsumption is costing you cash, time, and calm. And it’s crowding your home! In this episode, I walk you through a simple No-Spend Challenge, practical spending rules that fit real life, and the home routines that help you buy less and use what you already own. It's a great way to start the New Year. Decluttering, believe it or not, is a financial strategy!

We’ll talk about the hidden costs of clutter (duplicate purchases, food waste, storage fees), how to track real savings each week, and the mindset shifts that stop impulse buying. I’ll share quick wins—like a 20-minute Weekly Financial Reset, pantry “use-up” lists, and 3-minute decluttering tasks—that reduce decision fatigue and protect your budget. If you’re ready to save money, cut clutter, and feel calmer at home, this is your starting line.
