Spring Cleaning Hacks to Organize Your Kitchen with Melissa Griffiths


Listen Later

Does your kitchen feel like the heart of your home—and also the most overwhelming room to manage?

In this episode of the Mama Work It Podcast, I'm joined by Melissa Griffiths, creator of Bless This Mess, to share realistic, family-friendly spring cleaning hacks for organizing your kitchen.

Melissa brings a refreshing perspective to organization—one rooted in

simplicity, from-scratch living, and creating systems that support real life,
not Pinterest perfection.

As a mom, cookbook author, and homesteader, Melissa understands that kitchen organization isn’t about having more bins or labels—it’s about reclaiming time, reducing mental load, and making space for connection. In this conversation, she shares practical tips to declutter, organize, and maintain a kitchen that works for busy families.

If you’re a working mom who wants a calmer, more functional

kitchen without spending hours reorganizing, this episode is for you.
