Sensitive Stories

49: Tidying Up + Letting Go of Overwhelm


Listen Later

Are you overwhelmed by clutter? In this episode, I talk with Rebecca Jo-Rushdy about the impacts of tidying up and:  

• How clutter and tidying up impacts our emotional, mental, and physical health  

• The importance of digital boundaries and creating a sanctuary in your home

• Letting go of what doesn’t bring you joy and finding gratitude for your belongings  

• Intentionally going through the six stages of the KonMari method of tidying up 

Rebecca guides sensitive souls on transformational journeys by decluttering their homes, hearts and minds into sanctuaries that spark joy and flow. As a recovered shopaholic & drawing on her lived experiences she’s dedicated to helping other highly sensitive people turn their wounds into wisdom and their exhaustion into energy. Rebecca also facilitates wellness workshops and speaks for corporates, government agencies and NGOs on the power of decluttering our personal and professional lives so that we can be more focused, effective and happy in whatever we do. Rebecca has lived and worked all over the world. She was the first platinum KonMari® consultant in Malaysia, and in Edinburgh, Scotland where she is currently based with her husband and two wonderfully sensitive daughters.
