  • Cleaning Routines - Make Them Easy For Yourself

    If you’re stuck in a cycle of endless organizing and cleaning, it’s not because you don’t have the right cleaning chart, bins, or chore schedules—it’s because you have too much stuff. Let’s get clear about something: any organizational system or cleaning routine you try to implement will not work if you’re drowning in clutter. The first step isn’t organizing or cleaning—it’s decluttering.

    Take the Next Step to Declutter Your Home

  • Postpartum mom needs, and how decluttering supports them

    We’re diving into the postpartum mom needs and how decluttering can support you in meeting those needs, from rest to bonding with your baby. As a mom of multiple kids, I’ve experienced the difference between a postpartum phase with a cluttered home and one with a decluttered, intentional space. And let me tell you, the change was life-changing.

    Decluttering gave me the ability to meet my postpartum needs in a way I never could before. Your home should work for you and give you the time and space to focus on the things that matter most, like bonding with your baby and taking care of yourself.

    If you’re ready to create a home that supports you, check out Decluttering Simplified. You deserve a peaceful, clutter-free space to help you thrive in this beautiful season of life. Let’s create it together!

  • What comes first - decluttering or the time and energy to declutter?

    One of the biggest roadblocks to a clutter-free home is the belief that you need to find time to declutter first. But here’s the truth: decluttering comes first.

    Waiting for the “perfect time” to declutter keeps you stuck. Life is busy, and if you keep waiting for a big chunk of free time, you’ll never start. Instead, start small and take action now—even if it’s just five minutes at a time.

    In this episode, we talk about:
    • Why waiting for the “right time” to declutter keeps you stuck
    • How to fit decluttering into your daily life, no matter how busy you are
    • The power of starting small (and why tiny wins add up to big progress)
    • How decluttering frees up more time in the long run
    • Simple strategies to take action today—even with a packed schedule

  • EP84 - Declutter so playing with and being present with your kids is easy AND fun

     How much do you actually play with your kids versus how much you actually WANT to play with them?

    As moms we want to be there for our kids. We want to make memories with them. We want to have fun with them.

    But the clutter in our home makes it so that you just can't because you are so distracted and overwhelmed by everything else that you can or should be doing. 

    IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT

    ... what it was like for me pre-decluttering when I tried to play with my kids

    ... how playing got REALLY easy and fun after we decluttered

    ... how your kids care less about the toys you give them to play with and more about how you actually play with them

  • EP81 - Pro tips for decluttering before you move!

    Pretty much everyone has said, or done the thing where we say we're just going to pack everything up and we'll declutter after we move. Which sounds nice, except MOST people - maybe even you do that, and then never finish unpacking those boxes because you don't know what they are, or how long they've been there, and it's a lot of freaking work.

    So today I am going to give you some of my best moving tips - and I know a thing or two about moving because we've moved seven times in the last six years and we are VERY efficient. 

    IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT

    ....why decluttering AFTER you move is a waste of your time and doesn't work

    ... How to be bold and let your stuff go instead of carrying it over into your fresh and new home

    ... Practical strategies for actually packing and moving
