Welcome, friend. Whether you’re listening while folding laundry, sitting in school pickup, or hiding out for a few minutes of quiet—you’re in the right place.

In this episode, we’re talking about two types of clutter that affect so many moms, especially the thoughtful, overwhelmed, non-rigid ones: visual clutter and mental clutter.
