How To Get Organized In A Small Space

How To Get Organized In A Small Space

“I’m desperate for tips about staying organized in a two bed townhouse. My husband and I have a 13 month old and are thinking of adding another to our family soon.  Our son shares the spare room with some storage and furniture while my husband is working from home from a desk in our bedroom. We don’t have heaps of toys, but there are some sentimental items like furniture, essential woodworking and sewing supplies, and so many clothes it seems silly to give away when we’re hoping for even more kids. How can I get organized in a small space?”

 

Effective organizing is all about prioritizing first. On this episode, I’m answering a listener’s question about how to get organized in a small-ish space by divulging my 3-step organizing method; I’m introducing the ultra-effective concept of space limits, too.

Joy is Resistance

When the world is burning, finding joy can feel impossible—or worse, selfish. How do we make space for celebration without turning a blind eye to reality? Why would we even want to?

While it can feel like a heavy lift, practicing joy is, in fact, an act of resistance. Joy prevents burnout, moves energy, builds solidarity, and promotes resilience.

On today’s show, author Cheryl Leutjen dives into the idea that choosing delight counters the oppressive systems that thrive on our exhaustion, isolation, and apathy.

Here’s a preview:

[5:30] Are we dancing while the Titanic sinks?

[10:00] Grief and anger are essential catalysts for change, but they’re terrible long-term fuels

[15:00] We’re so much more than consumers! Here’s how joy helps us reclaim our full humanity which has been lost under capitalism

[18:00] Community is medicine. We aren’t meant to carry the weight of the world alone!
