#89 The Emotional Weight of Clutter


Listen Later

You may feel the weight of having too much “stuff” -- even if it's hidden away in a drawer or in your closet. Or you may forget it until the next time you see it. Our brains are funny like that! In this episode, Renee explains how and why the mental load of clutter is amplified with ADHD—and why it can feel like it's taking up space in your mind even when it’s out of sight -- and how other times we may simply forget! — Why ADHD brains struggle with both object permanence and mental closure. — How “out of sight, out of mind” can work at times you don't need it and backfire when even unseen clutter drains your energy.  — How to shift from struggling to finding strategies. — ADHD-friendly tips to lighten the emotional load without needing to tackle everything at once. Whether your clutter lives in a closet, attic, garage—or just your head—this episode is your permission to take small steps, have more compassion, and clear the weight you can’t see but definitely feel.  🔆 Subscribe & Download this episode 🌼 Share this podcast with a friend!  👍 Contact Renee if you want to Conquer Clutter with her next month!
