Permission to be Messy

After nearly two years away, Permission to Be Messy is back! In this short comeback episode, I’m reintroducing the podcast, sharing a little about why I stepped away, and talking about what you can expect as we move forward.

One of the biggest changes? Permission to Be Messy is now coming to YouTube, too. I’ve wanted to bring the podcast into video for a while, especially because I’m planning to have more conversations with guests.

Of course, adding video also means embracing a little more of the “messy” part. There’s less hiding the mistakes, pauses, and imperfect moments when the camera is rolling, which feels pretty appropriate for this podcast.

Going forward, you can expect weekly episodes, many of them featuring guests, along with some solo episodes from me. We’ll explore organization from lots of different angles, including business, finances, legal topics, personal organization, and wherever else the conversations take us.

And I’d love your input. Are there topics you’d like me to talk about? People you’d love to hear me interview? Industries or areas of business and life you think we should explore? I’m excited to see where this next chapter of Permission to Be Messy goes.

As always, I’m wishing you much progress, peace, purpose, and the permission to be messy.

In this episode of Permission to Be Messy, I’m back after a long break, and we’re talking about how to restart without guilt or overwhelm—whether it’s a decluttering project, an organizing system, or a creative endeavor like this podcast.

I’ll share insights on the beauty of taking a pause, how to reflect on progress, and why stopping doesn’t mean failure. We’ll explore how breaks can bring clarity, recharge your motivation, and even help you let go of what no longer serves you. Plus, practical tips to restart with grace, intention, and small, manageable steps.

Remember, life—and organizing—is a journey, not a linear process. Progress doesn’t mean perfection.
