To go along with KC's thoughts, I knew I wanted to air an excerpt from Episode 161 "Cleaning Strategies for the Naturally Messy Mom" with Candi Kidd as this week's Hidden Gem. We have been hearing from Candi a lot lately, and for good reason. Candi gets it! And this takeaway teaching us how to lower the “activation energy” it takes to get started cleaning goes right along with KC's advice from Monday's episode.

Are you thinking about new year’s resolutions and getting organized in the coming year, after the chaos of the holidays? I am too! And honestly, this doesn’t come very naturally to me! Since I was a little girl, I have left a “wake” behind me everywhere I go–cupboards left open, shoes kicked off in the middle of the hallway, and spills on the kitchen counter that should’ve been wiped up immediately, but I didn’t even notice them. Luckily, I have a very wise friend who is teaching me better habits. Candi Kidd (who was our guest in Episode 001!) teaches moms who are naturally messy like me how to keep their lives more tidy and orderly. And her tips can really help any mom, even if you are naturally a neat-freak (P.S. you amaze me), because we all live with children…and children bring chaos and confusion along with them everywhere they go. Join Candi and me as we dive into some very actionable tips to make developing routines and systems EASY for even the most scattered mom. *** Three Takeaways for the Naturally-Messy Mom 1) Be a detective to find and then solve the messy spots in your home. 2) Lower the “activation energy” it takes to get started with cleaning. 3) Focus on completing one J.O.B. (just one bite!) per day. *** -Show Notes- Candi’s Instagram account: Candi’s first episode: https://3in30podcast.com/unmotivated-kids-to-help/ (001 “Getting Unmotivated Kids to Help)” https://www.amazon.com/House-That-Cleans-Itself-Solutions/dp/0736918809 (The House that Cleans Itself) by Mindy Starns Clark: Jordan Page who came up with the acronym J.O.B.

Danielle Porter and I have been friends for about six years, ever since I started working with the organization, Power of Moms. During that time, I have seen her go from a mother of three young children to a mother of six young children (her oldest is about eleven), and I have admired how fully she has committed herself to learning how to be the best mother she can be. Danielle is truly deliberate about every decision she makes in her home, and she has tried out many systems and strategies over the years. I benefit from hearing her advice as her family and her wisdom grows, and today she is going to share some of that with us on the podcast! I asked her to teach us how to teach our children to work--and I was honestly surprised by her takeaways. But her words also resonated as truth in my heart and reminded me that a little love, patience, and perspective goes a long way.
