July 11, 2019 EP60 Stop thinking and start doing - motherhood simplified challenge
This is the final episode for the Motherhood Simplified challenge and today is all about getting out of your head and INTO your life! Taking action is most often the missing piece to getting you unstuck. We think and plan and research and analyze before we EVER take action. We stop because we're exhausted just thinking about it all not realizing that the DOING is what is most helpful for us.
So today I give you one simple way to figure out where you are stuck, and how to take action on it to move forward.
IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT
... how powerful our thoughts are and the fact that we control them, not the other way around
... how to get out of planning/thinking/analyzing mode and into action mode
... ways to process your thoughts so that they don't consumer you all day every day
... and the one simple way I have learned to stop thinking and actually find solutions I can DO

July 05, 2019 EP56 Strong opinions about clutter that will help you!!
Today I share with you what those are and what the foundation of the Motherhood Simplified movement is based on.
Often times moms come into the Motherhood Simplified community with the same root issues but seeking the same bandaid solutions. I often find myself giving advice that I can FEEL through the internet that is frustrating to the moms I get to know becuase.... it's not the easy answer.
It's not the answer we're sold by Target and the Container Store and Home Goods. But these answers - which are my opinions - about clutter in the home and the impact it has on us are strong.
So strong that I will shout them from the rooftops to any mom who will listen because I know they will be infinitely more helpful to you than any fluffy, unopinionated, easy answer I can give you.
IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT
... the strong, and sometimes unpopular opinions I have about clutter and how they will HELP you more than any weak, unopinionated bandaid solution

July 03, 2019 EP55 Why you should declutter BEFORE you have your baby
This community is called Motherhood Simplified - so obviously we are in the seasons of having babies. One question I get often is "should I declutter before my maternity leave or during". I wholheartedly believe that BEFORE is the answer, and for so many reasons. In this episode I tell the story of my different postpartum experiences I have had. The good, the bad, the ugly and what I wish I would have known about decluttering BEFORE actually having the baby. Because for me, every time, the hard work comes after you have the baby. Especially if you already have other kids.

IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT
... why it's so important to muster up the energy you can while pregnant to declutter BEFORE the baby comes
... how much it will pay you if you DO this
... how to get started in the fastest, and simplest way without burning yourself out while pregnant before baby comes

July 01, 2019 EP53 Toy Story 4 says to declutter the toys!
Toy Story 4 has us all talking about toys and our kids' toys and making us feel all kinds of things about them!! Because it's Toy STORY and a good story does that. In this episode I share with you my biggest takeaways from the movie and why I think that it actually sends the exact opposite message of keeping all the toys, and that we should really watch it with an open mind and hear the messages that will really help us be intentional about what toys we have and keep in our homes.
IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT
....some of my favorite take aways from Toy Story 4
... The fact that we have TOO MANY toys, and not enough kids to actually play with them
... the mark of a good generational, favorite toy
