1368: You're Not a Mess—Your Environment Is (Let's Change It)


Listen Later

You're not lazy. You're not undisciplined. You're not broken. You're just fighting against your environment—and it's a losing battle.

In this episode, Elizabeth gets real about the truth we all feel but rarely talk about:

Your willpower will never beat your environment.

From overflowing mudrooms to cluttered kitchen counters, chaotic homes create chaotic minds—and chaotic minds make impulsive decisions. Sound familiar?

This episode dives into:

  • Why your space might be silently sabotaging your progress

  • How clutter triggers stress, reactivity, and that "I need a break" urge

  • The common household patterns that wear down your willpower

  • And most importantly—6 simple things you can do to make your environment support your goals, not destroy them

You don't need a Pinterest-worthy house. You need a space that lets you breathe. You'll hear real-life, messy, relatable examples—like:

  • Why there are 77 shoes in the mudroom (with only 5 people in the house)

  • The Ninja Creamy that hasn't moved in months

  • How to stop "moving" things and start putting them away

If you've ever thought, "I know what to do, I'm just not doing it"—this episode will hit home. HARD.

🔑 In This Episode You'll Learn:
  • The overlooked link between clutter and cravings

  • The sneaky ways your space increases stress and sabotages progress

  • 6 actionable, doable, non-overwhelming ways to reclaim peace in your environment
