Do you struggle to let go of things because you see a potential use for them? Do you keep things in your house because you don't want them ending up in the landfill? While our desire not to be wasteful is often rooted in positive values such as resourcefulness, frugality, and environmental responsibility, there are three cognitive biases that skew these values to cause us to hold onto what is no longer serving us. In today's episode, we'll dive into them and teach you how to reframe your thoughts so you can make decluttering easier.

We explore the multi-faceted nature of clutter—not just in terms of physical possessions, but also in emotional and mental contexts. Recognizing that letting go is a vital aspect of self-care, I emphasize the importance of implementing mindful practices that allow for a gradual release of what no longer serves us.I begin by addressing the misconceptions around decluttering, particularly the idea that one must make sweeping changes to experience relief. Instead, I advocate for micro practices, highlighting that even small steps can lead to significant changes in how our nervous system responds to the act of letting go. By introducing concepts like the "three-item rule," I encourage you to identify and release three small items or commitments each day. This simple yet effective approach helps to diminish feelings of overwhelm and teaches our nervous system that it is safe to let go, fostering a sense of calm and stability.Moreover, I emphasize the power of gratitude in the decluttering process. Before parting with an item, I suggest taking a moment to acknowledge its role in your life and express gratitude, creating a sense of closure. This practice not only soothes the nervous system but also reframes letting go as an act of appreciation rather than loss. I share personal anecdotes about my own decluttering journey, reflecting on the emotional challenges and the subsequent sense of relief that comes with intentional release.#Clutter, #Decluttering, #LettingGo, #EmotionalRelease, #NervousSystem, #Boundaries, #SelfCare, #Healing, #InnerPeace, #Calm, #Safety, #MicroPractices, #ThreeItemRule, #GratitudeAndGoodbyes, #IntentionalClosure, #Reframing, #RespectfulRelease, #DecisionFatigue, #SelfTrust, #Mindfulness, #PresentMoment, #Affirmation, #Anxiety, #Overwhelm, #StressRelief, #PersonalGrowth, #Wellbeing, #Freedom, #Clarity, #GinaRyan, #JosephCampbell, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Does your brain ever feel like it's buzzing before you've even had your coffee?If your homeschool days are filled with noise, clutter, constant motion, and mental overwhelm, and your inner world feels just as chaotic, this episode is for you. I remember a day when I felt completely paralyzed by the noise in my life—until something surprising helped me reset. Today, I'm sharing that story and what I've learned since, so you can find a moment of peace right where you are.You'll learn how external and internal “noise” impact your mind, your mood, and your ability to parent with clarity. Plus, I'll walk you through simple sensory resets—like calming music, noise boundaries, and body-based strategies—to restore your nervous system, even in a loud home.
Clutter shouldn't keep you from community. If you've ever said “maybe next month” because the house feels out of control, this one's for you. Research shows more than half of people have canceled hosting due to the state of their home, and 73% hide parts of their house from guests. Today we make connection light, doable, and fun, without chasing perfection. Why clutter quietly shrinks your social world How home chaos drains energy and confidence (especially for busy moms) Simple, repeatable systems for playdates and low-pressure hangs Exactly what to declutter first so your place is “company-ready,” not showroom-ready Ideas that build community without burning you out
My recent friend Faith, who I met at an OTL Dialogue, has a gift for questions. So when Faith expressed interest in asking me about my community living situation, I was grateful she was up for recording our call, because she's a careful thinker who understands systems from a deep rootedness in the organic nature of community and personhood. And boy, did she make me think and reflect.Leaving our conversation, I'm left with questions for how to make my community house wiser, more developed, more mature. I'm left wondering how we can develop rituals of modifying our covenant, rituals of remembering our values and vision, on staying attuned to different nodes of awareness on the health of the community, and on encouraging multiple nodes of community ownership.

Are you feeling buried under all the “stuff?” Tired of looking at piles of stuff and not knowing where to start? Clutter costs you energy you don't even realize you're spending. Good news: decluttering doesn't have to mean an all-day project. Decluttering isn't just about your house looking better. It's about creating mental and emotional breathing room too.

Do you ever sit down to work… and suddenly find yourself tidying the kitchen instead?Or waste half an hour shuffling through papers, even though you know the real project waiting for you is more important?You're not alone. Clutter distractions, procrasticleaning, and the invisible mental load are stealing your focus. They drain your energy, slow your productivity, and leave you feeling guilty at the end of the day.But here's the truth: it's not about working harder.

Professional organizer Ingrid Jansen, co-author of Reset Your Home, explains why clutter is more about emotions than “stuff,” why decluttering is a process (not a project), and how to start small—think kitchens, cupboards, and daily resets—to build your “decluttering muscle” over time. In this conversation, we discuss:Process over project: Decluttering is never “done”—as things come in, things must go out. Start in the kitchen: Fewer emotions than books/photos; clear storage first, then put surfaces away. Daily resets: 10–30 minute habits (dishes, bins, wipe counters, a load of laundry) that prevent weekend pileups. “If in doubt, keep it”: Build capacity with easy wins; you'll be ready to let go on a later pass. Don't buy more bins: The problem isn't storage—it's volume; work with what you have. Decide by favorites: Pull everything out, match lids, pick what you use and love first; the rest gets easier. Clutter personalities: From “harassed housekeepers” to “nostalgic knee-deeps”—self-awareness beats shame. Why this pays off: Less hunting, faster cleaning, smarter grocery runs—time and money saved.

Do you ever look around at your clutter and feel a wave of guilt, sadness, or just… stuck? You're not alone. In part three of our four-part series, The Real Cost of Disorganization, we're digging into the emotional roots of clutter, and it might get a little personal. Because let's be honest: disorganization usually isn't about laziness, lack of time, or not knowing where to start. It's about what the stuff means to us. I'm sharing what I've learned from my own clients, a hoarding specialist, and my personal experience to help you uncover what's really going on beneath the surface. This episode is gentle, powerful, and honestly, might be the moment everything clicks. We'll explore: How grief, guilt, shame, and perfectionism sneak into our closets, drawers, and digital clutter. Why clutter is often your brain's protective mechanism. What your space might be trying to tell you. And how to finally move forward with peace, not pressure. I'll walk you through a 3-step process to begin releasing the emotional weight behind your clutter. It's simple, powerful, and something you can do right away, no bins, no fancy labels, just real emotional clarity. What you'll learn: Why your clutter might actually be grief, shame, or fear in disguise. The surprising connection between trauma and disorganization. How to spot emotional roots like guilt, perfectionism, or control. The 3-step method to identify and release emotional clutter. Name the Emotion. Switch from judgment to curiosity using questions like: What is this space trying to tell me? What story is this clutter holding? What part of me is it protecting? What season of life is this tied to? Choose one compassionate action to take (and what that might look like).

In this chilling episode of Stuttering in Silence, Matt and Gavin unravel one of America's most haunting true crime cases—the brutal 1959 slaying of the Clutter family in Holcomb, Kansas. What started as a supposed robbery turned into a senseless and calculated murder that shook the nation. We explore the twisted minds of Perry Smith and Richard Hickock, the flawed plan that led to tragedy, and how Truman Capote's In Cold Blood forever changed the way we tell true crime stories. This isn't just a murder story—it's the tale of how innocence was stolen from a small town overnight.
In this episode of The Guilty Files: True Crime Uncovered, Brian takes us back to the heartland of America—Holcomb, Kansas—where one of the most chilling and senseless mass murders in U.S. history occurred. On the night of November 15, 1959, four members of the Clutter family were brutally murdered in their own home, sending shockwaves through a tight-knit farming community and eventually capturing the nation's attention.Brian lays out the cold, hard facts of the case—from the meticulous planning by ex-convicts Perry Smith and Richard Hickock, to the terrifying final hours of Herbert, Bonnie, Nancy, and Kenyon Clutter. We follow the timeline of events that led up to the murders, the aftermath that devastated the town, and the cross-country manhunt that brought the killers to justice.You'll hear about the calculated cruelty behind the crime, the seemingly motiveless brutality, and the forensic and investigative work that cracked the case wide open.Brian also touches on how this horrific story caught the eye of author Truman Capote, who would later immortalize it in his genre-defining nonfiction novel In Cold Blood.This episode is a sobering look at the violence that can lurk behind a calm exterior—and a stark reminder that no place, no matter how peaceful, is ever truly safe from evil.Content Warning: This episode contains detailed descriptions of a home invasion and the murder of multiple family members, including a minor.
In this haunting episode of The Guilty Files: Rewired, Dani pulls back the layers of the infamous Clutter family murders—not just to revisit the crime, but to reimagine the emotional and psychological shockwave it left behind.This isn't a retelling of the facts—that's already been done.Instead, Dani dives deep into the psyche of Perry Smith and Richard Hickock, the two drifters whose fractured paths led them to one brutal night in Holcomb, Kansas. What made them tick? How did childhood trauma, cycles of poverty, and a hunger for significance culminate in the cold-blooded execution of a family they'd never met?But the story doesn't end there. Dani also explores the impact of Truman Capote's In Cold Blood—how it blurred the lines between journalism and narrative, empathy and exploitation. Was Capote shining a light on the forgotten corners of the justice system, or was he romanticizing killers for the sake of literary fame?Through speculative storytelling, psychological analysis, and a few chilling “what ifs,” Dani rewires this case with fresh questions:What if someone had intervened in Perry's youth?What if the Clutters had never opened their door that night?What if In Cold Blood had never been written?This episode reimagines the Clutter murders not just as a crime—but as a mirror reflecting the fragility of safety, the failings of society, and the cost of trying to humanize the inhumane.Content Warning: Contains discussion of murder, trauma, and speculative depictions of violence.
