  • Finding Balance in Chaos: Unlocking Inner Calm through Effective Organization

    We tend to think of the chaos in our lives as our adversary. It can bring out our deepest fears. It can remind us of all the ways we feel imperfect, not good enough, or like we're failing to make other people happy, let alone ourselves. 

    But what if chaos could be your friend? What if chaos could give you the freedom to be your wonderfully weird, nerdy self without fear or shame? What if it could be the spark that lets you explore new ideas, think outside the box, and embrace your individuality? 

    In this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, host and coach Sarah Bowser explores how you can embrace the chaos in your life as a positive force that can serve you, your unique brain, and your unique needs. She emphasizes the importance of letting go of perfectionism, highlights strategies for managing clutter in our minds and physical spaces, and encourages us to use chaos to fuel creativity, experimentation, and personal growth. You can absolutely get your shit together and get organized while still embracing the chaos that makes you who you are.

    What you’ll learn in this episode: 

    • Embracing the chaos that makes you who you are and managing it effectively gives you freedom and contributes to a life that honours individuality and imperfection. 
    • Perfectionism often leads to paralysis; letting go of it allows for flexibility and adaptability. 
    • Strategies like mindfulness and brain dumping can help you manage mental clutter and organize your thoughts. 
    • Your physical spaces should be organized in a way that suits your needs, not aesthetic perfection. 
    • Chaos can inspire creativity and personal growth, encouraging experimentation and acceptance of failure as part of the learning process. 

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
    “When we let go of perfectionism, we find freedom, flexibility, and adaptability become our new best friends.” 

    “Chaos can be a fantastic catalyst for creativity and growth if you let it be that catalyst.” 

    “Embracing your imperfections is what makes you relatable, real, and honestly way more fun to be around.” 

    “Every failure is a stepping stone to success. It's how we learn, grow, and figure out what truly works for us.” 

     ”Chaos doesn't have to be your enemy. It can be your friend, your spark, your guide. The key is choosing how you engage with it. Are you letting the chaos overwhelm you or are you using it as a tool to embrace your quirks, fuel your creativity, and create a life that works for you?”

  • Ditch the Guilt: Strategies for Getting Your Shit Together

    So often we think that getting our shit together should be simple. You just need to buckle down and get it done. You make a start, make a little progress, but then you start to feel overwhelmed, and that sneaky little voice in the back of your head chimes in: “Everyone else has it together. Why can't I figure this out? What's wrong with me?”

    Sound familiar?

    Guilt is one of the biggest roadblocks we face when we're trying to get our shit together. It’s like that annoying house guest who overstays their welcome. 

    But we don't have to let guilt take over. In this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, host and coach Sarah Bowser talks about how internalized pressure and unrealistic societal expectations can hinder our personal growth and well-being. She dives into how guilt sneaks into our lives, how we can start rewriting the story we tell ourselves, and how we can  let go of the guilt and pressure to be perfect. It's about finding balance, embracing your quirks, and focusing on what truly matters to you.

    What you’ll learn in this episode: 

    • Aligning your actions with your core values is a way to reduce guilt and focus on what truly matters. 
    • Self-compassion is a powerful tool for growth and healing, allowing you to learn from your mistakes without harsh self-criticism. 
    • Strategies for managing feelings of overwhelm include prioritizing tasks, delegating, and prioritizing self-care. 
    • Vulnerability and asking for help are strengths, enabling deeper connections and greater self-awareness. 
    • Practical tools like brain dumps can help you organize your thoughts and prioritize tasks effectively. 

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode:  
    “Nobody is perfect. And trying to meet expectations of perfection only sets us up for anxiety and guilt.” 

    “What if we embraced the idea that imperfections are just part of being human? Once we start embracing imperfection, we can begin rewriting the inner narrative that fuels our guilt.” 

     ”When we allow ourselves to be vulnerable, we open the door to deeper connections and greater self-awareness. Sometimes that means being okay with questioning yourself. What do I really want? What's working for me and what's not?” 

    “Asking for help isn't a sign of weakness. It's a sign of strength.” 

    “Cultivating self-compassion is one of the most powerful tools we have for growth and healing.”

  • Navigating the Chaos: Discovering Your True North in a World of Overwhelming Expectations

    You know that moment in The Fellowship of the Ring when Gandalf is in the Mines of Moria, standing there with no recollection of the place? He's lost, surrounded by darkness, with no idea where to go. 

    Sometimes life, and your own mind, can feel like that. When you're out of alignment, ignoring or betraying your core values, it can lead to anxiety, guilt, and a sense of being lost. But identifying and staying true to your core values can help guide you out of life’s mines and into the light. 

    In this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, host and coach Sarah Bowser dives into why core values are so important, how you can uncover yours, and how to use them to navigate societal expectations. Sarah shares her own story of abandoning her values to fit in with a group before realizing that the key to belonging, cutting through mental chaos, and finding her way in the world was to identify and live in alignment with her core values.

    What you’ll learn in this episode: 

    • Core values are the deeply held principles that guide your decisions, shape your actions, and define what truly matters to you. 
    • You can uncover your core values by reflecting on past experiences and aligning your actions and decisions with them. 
    • When you're aligned with your core values, your decisions become clearer, your relationships become more authentic, and your sense of self is much more grounded. 
    • When societal expectations clash with your values, take a step back and remind yourself of what's truly important. 

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode: 
    “Your core values are your ultimate compass when you're feeling lost.” 

    “Your core values aren't set in stone; they can evolve as you grow and change.” 

    “Living in alignment with your core values also means making difficult decisions, sometimes saying no to opportunities or relationships that don't align with your values.” 

    “Ask yourself, what's most important to me in life? What do I want to stand for? What do I want to leave behind?” 

    “Think about moments when you felt truly happy, fulfilled, or proud of yourself... What values were you honoring? Then look for patterns and themes.”

  • Unmasking the Myth of Imperfection: How Embracing Imperfection Can Reduce Anxiety

    Does this sound familiar? Don't stress about being perfect, but also make sure you look great, have everything together, and don't mess up. 

    Society loves to remind us that there's no such thing as perfection, but then turns right around and expects us to be perfect. Perfectionism has been a shadow that's followed Get It Together, Weirdo host Sarah Bowse her entire life. She spent so much time and energy making sure everything was just right because she thought that's what she needed to do to feel worthy, to be accepted, to avoid losing everything. 

    Spoilers, sweetie. She learned that she doesn’t need to be perfect. And neither do you. 

    In this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, Sarah dives into the vicious cycle of perfectionism and people pleasing — why we fall into it, how we can break free, and how we can embrace imperfection as part of our growth. 

    Want to stay in the loop on new episodes, posts, and other tidbits that Sarah shares? Go to thatweirdnerdymom.com to hop on her email list, or join her for weekly coworking on Mondays. 

    What you’ll learn in this episode: 

    • Perfectionism can be an exhausting cycle, but recognizing it is the first step to breaking free. 
    • Past experiences often shape our need for perfection, but understanding these roots helps untangle them. 
    • It's okay to not have everything look perfect, be perfect, and stay perfect. 
    • Learning to embrace imperfection is not only more sustainable but liberating and key to personal growth. 
    • Mistakes and setbacks are where the magic happens  — with every mistake, you learn something new, become more resilient, and figure out what works for you. 

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode:
    “Society loves to remind us that there's no such thing as perfection, but then turns right around and expects us to be perfect.” 

    “Maybe you grew up in an environment where mistakes weren't allowed or where praise only came when you did something perfectly.  Maybe you internalized the idea that your worth is tied to your achievements.” 

    “ You don't need to perform or achieve or perfect your way into worthiness.” 

    “When we start to understand the root of our beliefs around perfectionism, we can then begin to untangle them.” 

    “I don't have to laminate everything, and neither do you.”

  • Reclaiming Your Sanity: 3 Techniques for Finding Inner Peace amidst Overwhelming Responsibilities

    What do you think you need more right now — your sanity or having all of your shit together? 

    If you're anything like Get It Together, Weirdo host Sarah Bowser, the answer probably depends on the day, maybe even the hour.  When you’re struggling with overwhelming responsibilities, you can feel like a failure for not having it all together, for letting things slip and turn into a hot mess — and for feeling as though you are losing your freaking mind. 

    In this episode, Sarah dives into why, most of the time, you need to focus on your mental health first. She shares three ways to help you keep your sanity in check so you can then tackle getting the rest of your shit together without, you know, losing your mind.

    What you’ll learn in this episode: 

    •  It’s normal, amidst overwhelming responsibilities, to feel like a failure for not having it all together and for feeling as though you’re losing your mind. 
    • It is possible to have sanity and your shit together. But without your sanity, you have little chance of successfully managing anything else. 
    •  Letting go of guilt isn't about ignoring your responsibilities. It's about recognizing that you're human and giving yourself permission to move on. 
    • Three ways to help you keep your sanity in check so you can tackle the rest. 

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode: 
    “When you're overwhelmed, it's easy to feel like everything is urgent and important, but not everything needs your attention right now or maybe ever.” 

    “ Learning to set boundaries and say no to commitments that don't align with your values and priorities is life-changing. Every time you say no to something that doesn't serve you, you're saying yes to something that does.” 

    “Perfection is unattainable. No matter how hard we try. We're going to make mistakes. We're going to fall short and we're going to have messy days. And that's okay.” 

    “Instead of focusing on what you didn't do, think about what you learned. Focus on the present moment and ask yourself, what can I do right now to feel good and move forward?”

  • Calm Your Chaos: The Power of Mindfulness in Just a Few Minutes

    Mindfulness. It’s everywhere. It's sold to us like some magical cure-all for everything. But the topic might make you roll your eyes, because a lot of what we hear about mindfulness is a load of shit. So how can you actually use mindfulness in a way that works for your distracted, busy brain? 

    In this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, coach Sarah Bowser  dives into the often misunderstood concept of mindfulness. Over the years, Sarah has bought into a lot of mindfulness woo woo. You name it, she’s tried it — the meditations, the breathing exercises, the essential oils. She’s had her fair share of eye roll moments. 

    But Sarah’s also seen the benefits of mindfulness in her own life. It hasn't magically solved all of her problems, but it's helped her navigate them with a little bit more clarity and less stress. Sarah argues that mindfulness is not about perfection or elaborate rituals, but about being present in small, manageable ways that work for you. By integrating simple mindfulness practices into everyday activities, you can reduce anxiety, improve focus, and enhance self-compassion. And that is worth the effort.

    What you’ll learn in this episode: 

    • Mindfulness doesn’t have to be perfect or complex. You can start small and simple. 
    • Mindfulness is a practice. You’ll get better at it over time. 
    • Being present in the moment without judgment can help manage anxiety, improve focus, and enhance self-awareness by giving your brain a break from its constant chatter. 
    • There are practical, accessible ways to incorporate mindfulness into your daily life and everyday activities. 
    • Experimentation with different mindfulness techniques will help you find what works for your needs and lifestyle. 

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode: 
    “Mindfulness is often packaged as this perfect, Instagram-worthy practice that will magically fix your life. And when it doesn't work immediately or it feels too complicated, we get frustrated and dismiss it as fluff.” 

    “Mindfulness can be as small as taking a few deep breaths, jotting down some thoughts on a scrap of paper or in your phone, or noticing the way your coffee smells in the morning. These tiny moments of presence can make a big difference in the way our brains process the world around us.” 

    “Trying to be mindful can feel impossible when your brain is running 20 tabs at once. It's normal to get distracted. The key isn't to force your brain to focus. It's to gently bring it back when it wanders.” 

    “It's okay if it feels awkward at first. Mindfulness is a practice, not a performance. The more you do it, the more natural it will feel.”

Letting go of society's expectations isn't easy, and the process can be uncomfortable at first. But once you take those first steps — like experimenting with something new just to see what happens — you open the door to confidence, empowerment, and even productivity.

    • That the process of celebrating your uniqueness, while initially uncomfortable, is ultimately empowering and freeing and leads to increased confidence and authenticity 

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode: 
    “Letting go of expectations and the pressure to be perfect isn't an easy adventure to go on. But once we take those first steps, we open the door to confidence, empowerment, and even productivity." 

    “Finding my family of weirdos taught me that being different is not just okay, it's something to celebrate.” 

    “It's super easy to ruminate on the ways we feel we don't measure up. But imperfection is normal. There's no such thing as perfection. What would happen if we stopped seeing imperfections as flaws and started seeing them as part of what makes us unique? What if we loved ourselves because of our imperfections, not in spite of them?” 

    “Experimenting has helped me discover so much about what makes my brain and my soul feel good. I've tried out different tools and systems and hobbies that have let me learn more about myself and connect with myself at a deeper, soulful level. It's allowed me to let go of the things that don't serve me and make room for the things that do.”

  • The Routine Experiment: How to Find Routines That Work For You

    You know the habits and schedules that we put in place because we think they're gonna help? Because we were told this would be game-changing? But, instead, they make us feel stuck, frustrated, and angry when they turn into rigid, soul-sucking, monotonous must-dos? 

    Spoiler alert: It doesn’t have to be this way. Routines can actually work for you instead of against you.

    In this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, host and coach Sarah Bowser chats about the routines that make our brains go blah because they don't work the way we need them to or thought they would. She encourages you to experiment with your routine so that it serves you instead of driving you up a wall. 

    So if your current routine makes you want to throw your planner across the room—or if you're avoiding even having a routine because the thought of having a planner to keep up with your routine is making your brain short-circuity—stick around. Sarah is gonna figure out how to make this work for you. 

    If you want to stay in the loop on new episodes, posts, and other tidbits that Sarah shares, go to thatweirdnerdymom.com to hop on her email list, or join her for weekly coworking on Mondays.

    What you’ll learn in this episode: 

    • That frustration and monotony can arise from rigid routines that don't serve your needs 
    • The importance of aligning routines with your values to ensure they’re fulfilling and sustainable 
    • How to experiment with routines, starting with small changes, to find that sweet spot between structure and flexibility 
    • To embrace progress in your experiments to create routines that serve you better and foster personal growth and productivity—without the constraints of perfectionism 
    • That your routine should be flexible and adaptable enough that it can grow and evolve as your needs and values do 

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode: 

    “ It took me a long time to realize that my obsession with structure wasn't serving me. It wasn't helping me feel in control. It was just another form of  fear and shame masquerading as productivity.” 

    “A lot of the time we set up routines based on what we think we're supposed to do, what we've seen other people do, what books and TV shows and infomercials and influencers tell us is the right way. But if those routines don't align with our values, they're not going to work long-term.” 

    “ We can really start to make some magic and change the way our brain thinks and reacts when we give ourselves permission to play with our routine instead of feeling chained to it.” 

    “If your values grow and evolve throughout the days, months, and years, grow and evolve your routine to match that evolution.”

  • How Personalized Organization Systems Build Confidence

    Do you feel guilty when you realize you've spent money on a one-size-fits-all organization system that just doesn’t work for you?  And when it doesn’t work, do you feel like the problem is you? 

    Spoiler alert, it’s not you. 

    In this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, host and coach Sarah Bowser lets you know that you're allowed to ditch those systems that don’t fit your needs and start over, and she guides you through creating systems that actually work for you. How? You recognize your own thoughts, your own quirks, your own values. You experiment, focusing on small wins. And you continually adjust things as your values and needs shift. 

    Even if you're staring at a mountain of planners and templates and apps you've spent way too much money on, this episode will give you permission to start over without feeling guilty. 

    If you want to stay in the loop on new episodes, posts, and other tidbits that Sarah shares, go to thatweirdnerdymom.com to hop on her email list, or join her for weekly coworking on Mondays. 

    What you’ll learn in this episode: 

    • How using cookie-cutter organization systems that don't cater to individual needs can leave you feeling guilty, frustrated, and inadequate 
    • The importance of acknowledging your personal quirks and values to create customized systems that work for your unique brain 
    • That experimenting with different methods and focusing on small wins  — checking off a to do, staying on top of a project  — builds your confidence and motivation
    • The need to continually reassess and adapt your personalized systems to align with your evolving values and needs

    Noteworthy quotes from this episode: 

    “You're allowed to ditch  those [cookie-cutter organization] systems. You're allowed to create something that actually works for you.  Even if you're staring at the mountain of planners and templates and apps you've spent way too much money on already, you can still start over.” 

     ”Let's start by talking about the downside of cookie-cutter systems. The problem isn't that they're inherently bad. It's just that they're designed for an imaginary “every person” who doesn't actually exist. These systems don't take into account your unique needs, your quirks, or the way that your brain works.” 

     ”So, how do you start creating a system that actually works for you? You start with identifying your core values. Your values are like a road map to understanding how your brain functions and what's truly important to you. Ask yourself, what matters most in your life right now? What lights you up? What keeps you grounded? The values that you identify will guide you in building the foundation of your system.”

    “Identify those hotspots of digital chaos, and then ask yourself—and dig deep here because we're not looking for surface-level, meh answers—how do these areas make you feel? Are they stressing you out? Making you anxious? Maybe you feel a little embarrassed about how out of control it's gotten? Whatever you're feeling, name it.
