3 Hard Truths about Clutter

Veteran organizers understand clutter, inside + out. They know, too, how + why clutter sneaks back into our homes, uninvited. If you have a big decluttering project looming over your To-Do List, anchor your efforts + arm yourself with these 3 hard truths about clutter before you ever minimize a single thing. Happy decluttering!

Have a major decluttering project on your To-Do List?

If so, you’ll benefit from having both a plan + insight before you declutter your home.

My guest this week is Katie McGowen. Katie is a mom of 5 who knew she had to declutter in a big way. But she didn’t tidy willy-nilly wherever the wind blew her + whenever she found the time; instead, she sought to declutter her entire home systematically.

Katie created a plan before she minimized a single thing; her plan anchored her efforts + ultimately led her to tidied success.

On this week’s show Katie describes the exact steps she took to tackle the job; she offers up 3 hard truths about clutter she learned along the way, too.

Enjoy!

Nature As Medicine

Are we treating the symptoms of modern life while simultaneously ignoring our habitat?

The average American now spends 93% of their life indoors. But humans evolved for millennia alongside the natural world, and research suggests that our indoor lifestyle is disrupting our sleep, focus and long-term health.

You don’t need a gym membership or expensive workout gear to get your health back on track. On today’s show, Dr. John La Puma argues that all you need is a 17-minute dose of nature, every single day.

Here’s a preview:

[4:00] Modern medicine tends to prioritize intervention over prevention. But why?

[7:30] We’re taught to fear the outdoors, but indoor living can be directly harmful in ways we’re only beginning to understand

[11:30] Why it’s time to view “screen time” as “ultra-processed time”

[16:00] Exactly how a daily dose of morning sunlight resets insulin sensitivity, hunger timing, and prefrontal cortex function

[30:00] Outside exercise is better for you than inside exercise, so take your movement outdoors!
