Happiness might be the most expensive word in the English language. We chase it, buy things in its name, and rearrange our lives trying to get closer to it. In this episode, I sit down with Erin Port, author of Tiny Tweaks, Happy Life, and we talk about why the big overhaul never works, why happiness guideposts are key, and where to start when you're so depleted you're not even sure what makes you happy anymore. 📖 Grab Erin's book, Tiny Tweaks, Happy Life → bit.ly/4uJXujl 🎯 Take the free Decluttering Style Quiz + get your custom 3-step action plan → home.katyjoywells.com/quiz 📩 Join the Internet's Most Fun Declutter Newsletter: Ready, Set, Simplify → home.katyjoywells.com/simplifynewsletter 🧡 Join Clutter Cure Club: The Only Membership Designed to Keep Your Home Clutter-Free For Good → home.katyjoywells.com/cluttercureclub 📚 Order My Book, Making Home Your Happy Place → home.katyjoywells.com/declutterwithouttheoverwhelm 📲 Follow me On Insta → instagram.com/katyjoywells

The Tiny Tweaks That Actually Create a Happier Life with Erin Port

You've decluttered before…so why does the mess keep coming back?
You've done the checklists, the bins, the late-night cleanouts—only to find yourself right back where you started. 

It's not your fault. You've just never been taught to declutter in a way that actually works long-term.

The Maximized Minimalist is the go-to podcast for women ready to declutter their homes, lighten their mental load, and finally feel in control of their space—and their life.

With over 5 million listens and a spot in the Top 50 global podcasts, host and holistic decluttering expert Katy Wells shares a fresh take on what it really means to clear the clutter—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Whether you're:
✔️ Drowning in laundry and clutter
✔️ Feeling behind on everything (including your own to-do list)
✔️ Tired of organizing the same space over and over
✔️ Or just craving a calmer, more peaceful home

This show will help you go from overwhelmed to in control—without the pressure to be perfect.

Inside each episode, you'll get:
✔️Practical strategies you can implement in 10 minutes or less
✔️Mindset shifts to help you let go (even of the sentimental stuff)
✔️Encouragement to quiet the guilt, the "what ifs," and the mental load
✔️And simple systems to help you keep the progress going

You might be wondering:
"How do I get my family on board?"
"What if I have emotional attachments to everything?"
"Why do I declutter and it still doesn't feel 'done'?"
"Can I really simplify when life feels so full?"

These are the exact questions Katy answers every week—with honesty, real-life examples, and step-by-step guidance that actually works for busy families.

Whether you're deep in clutter or just craving a little more breathing room—you're in the right place.
