Free housecleaning guide: simplyconvivial.com/clean 
Messy house? It's not chaos. That metaphor destroys your perspective and keeps you stuck before you even start. Your home is not evidence of failure—it’s evidence of life, growth, and productivity.

In this episode of Simply Convivial, I unpack why our metaphors matter, how to reframe mess as fruitfulness, and what it looks like to tend your home like a garden—not grade it like a report card.

You’ll learn:
✅ Why your description of chaos can sabotage your mindset
✅ How to reinterpret mess as evidence of mission
✅ The real purpose of housework (hint: it’s not a clean house)
✅ How to stop swinging between perfectionism and giving up
✅ A garden mindset for daily tending and fruitful living
