    Perfectionism and people pleasing sneak into our homes, schedules, and even our self-worth.

When perfectionism, people pleasing, and limiting beliefs drive our choices, the result is often burnout, resentment, and clutter (both in our homes and in our minds). In this powerful conversation, I sit down with certified life coach Kamini Wood, who helps high achievers release old patterns, overcome self-sabotage, and create balanced, purpose-driven lives. Together, we explore how perfectionist pressure sneaks into our organizing habits, why people pleasing keeps us holding on to stuff we don’t love, and the tools we can use to finally feel free. We Cover: How perfectionism and people pleasing show up in your home, routines, and mindset The JADE method to stop over-explaining and reclaim your voice Why boundaries are a process, not a one-time fix How to recognize limiting beliefs and shift toward values-based goals Practical ways to declutter both your space and your mind for more balance and joy If you’ve ever felt like you “should” be able to handle it all on your own, this episode is the reminder that you don’t have to—and that freedom comes when you let go of the clutter, inside and out.

    Clutter Keeps You Lonely. Here's How to Declutter and Boost Your Social Life (Wannabe Clutter Free Ep 271)
    Aug 20 2025
    Clutter shouldn’t keep you from community. If you’ve ever said “maybe next month” because the house feels out of control, this one’s for you. Research shows more than half of people have canceled hosting due to the state of their home, and 73% hide parts of their house from guests. Today we make connection light, doable, and fun, without chasing perfection. Why clutter quietly shrinks your social world How home chaos drains energy and confidence (especially for busy moms) Simple, repeatable systems for playdates and low-pressure hangs Exactly what to declutter first so your place is “company-ready,” not showroom-ready Ideas that build community without burning you out 📌 Resources Mentioned: 52% canceled hosting due to the state of their home and 65% felt shame or embarrassment about it. A 2025 poll found 73% avoid showing guests parts of their home because of clutter. ~45% of Gen Z and millennials would feel embarrassed if someone saw their home as it is. Household chaos and crowding leads to higher parenting stress and weaker child social-emotional outcomes across incomes. Chaotic homes drain capacity for playdates and drop-ins.
