Clutter isn't just about messy closets or overstuffed drawers—it impacts our time, energy, emotions, and even our spiritual well-being. In this episode, I'm joined by professional organizer and author Robyn Reynolds, who shares wisdom from her book What Is Your Clutter Costing You? and offers practical strategies for breaking free from the stress clutter creates. We dive into: How clutter fuels a stress cycle that steals our time and focus The connection between physical clutter, mental clutter, and productivity Why clutter leaves us feeling drained—and how to reclaim our energy The concept of “residential productivity” and how mental clutter disrupts home management Practical steps for starting and finishing a decluttering project without overwhelm The metaphysical and spiritual significance of clutter, and how decluttering can become a form of self-care Robyn Reynolds, CPO®, was destined to organize—long before she even knew it could be a career. What began as a passion for tidying up her own spaces "just for fun" eventually evolved into Organize2Harmonize, a thriving professional organizing business . Today, Robyn is a Certified Professional Organizer, published author, and sought-after expert in the organizing world. Whether she's working with celebrities or families, Robyn brings a mix of professionalism, heart, and harmony to every project.

Like we tie so much into the physical object. That's why we end up keeping so much, 'cause we're like, “oh, I feel like I'm throwing out my kids' childhood if I don't keep every piece of art that they've ever made.” And then when you give it to 'em, my girls are 25 and 23, they don't want it. You know, you can document, you can, journal. That's the stuff that really matters. So don't let things give you the guilt because you don't have to keep everything, because if you keep everything, nothing special.” - Stacy Landholm  GUEST RESOURCES: Stacy Landholm @homeorganizetribe Two-Minute Tidy Tips Podcast The 10 Day / 10 Room Reset Challenge RESOURCES: [JOIN MY VISIBILITY TRAINING] With just 1 hour a week, my proven content framework will help you refine your messaging and turn your offers into consistent, scalable sales.

Happy September! This month we celebrate Our Lady of Sorrows and the Seven Sorrows Rosary. If you would like to purchase a 7 Sorrows Rosary, here is an example of one from Amazon: 7 Sorrows Rosary Do you struggle with Perfectionism? The only perfect woman to ever walk planet Earth was Our Blessed Mother. And while it is good and holy to strive to be more like her everyday, we will never achieve perfect like Her. For she was conceived without sin. So, how can we try to overcome 5 of the common signs of perfectionism? Let's use the second mystery of the 7 Sorrows Rosary as our guide. The Flight into Egypt.

In this episode, I share my best strategies for getting things done as a female business owner with a family—without falling into the trap of busy work. I talk about the difference between being busy and being productive, and how a flexible schedule can sometimes blur those lines. I walk you through how I set clear work hours, choose 1-3 weekly goals, and reverse engineer the steps to achieve them. I also explain why I schedule time for each action, build in buffer zones to avoid burnout, and set aside a “parking lot” for non-urgent tasks.Listen to Episode 116: Life Lately (August)Tune in for practical tips to help you create more intention and momentum in your business and family life! Free Resources:Join 30 Day Calendar Blocking Blueprint and finally feel in control. ​Click here to join the next round. ​Are you a business owner making $100,000+ and still wearing all the hats? ​Click here​ to learn about my upcoming 12-week Outsourcing Mastermind.Are you an aspiring or newer business owner who needs some accountability and clarity on the next steps? ​Click here​ to join my 6-month accountability group - Simplify.

Fall is a natural invitation to slow down, reset, and create a home that supports rest and connection. Today, you'll learn how to create space for warmth, peace, and simplicity by taking cues from the changes in nature during the autumn season.

SHOW NOTES: Welcome back to The Money Pit, your go-to for home improvement how-tos, hacks, tips, tricks, and advice! We've covered a ton of ground this hour, making good homes better with cleaning, decluttering, and restoration advice. On today's show, you'll hear: - Kitchen Cabinet Intervention: We share smart tips to declutter, deep clean, and reorganize your kitchen storage, turning that "black hole of mismatched Tupperware" into an efficient and enjoyable space. - Roof Restoration with Roof Maxx: That gritty, sand-like debris in your gutters is a distress signal from your roof, indicating aging asphalt shingles shedding granules. A Roof Maxx treatment can restore flexibility, protect against leaks, and add up to 15 years of life to your existing roof! - Entryway Command Center: Combat back-to-school chaos with clever ideas for creating a smart and stylish command center right by your door, perfect for organizing gear, taming paper piles, and setting your family up for a stress-free fall. - Screen Maintenance Checklist: Make sure your window screens are ready for cooler days by vacuuming or hosing them off, patching holes and tears, and fixing warped frames on screen doors.   Q & A: - Sean from Texas had a question about his central vacuuming system, with lots of condensation and muddy water buildup in one of his inlet pipes. The solution is to insulate the central vac pipe to prevent temperature changes and subsequent condensation. - Linda from Florida called in about her flaking cement floor. We advise pressure washing the floor to remove all loose material, ensuring it's fully dry, and then applying a durable, industrial-grade two-part epoxy coating. - Thomas from Tennessee was dealing with terrible moisture and mildew in his basement. We recommend addressing exterior drainage first by extending downspouts away from the foundation, ensuring proper gutter capacity, and sloping the soil away from the house. - Steve called about replacing green shag carpet in his 1975 RV by installing a laminate floor. The key is to ensure a very sturdy subfloor with no flex, as the material can snap if the subfloor is uneven or has movement. - Sheena wrote in about dripping water on the ceiling next to her bathroom exhaust fan. This is likely condensation caused by warm, moist air hitting cold ductwork. We advise checking that the exhaust ducting is properly connected and insulated. - David was concerned about cracking walls and nail pops in his home after only two years, despite a clear home inspection. We reassure him that this is normal movement as homes expand and contract.   ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question? We'd love to help!

In this episode, I'm sharing my favorite productivity tip: the 30-minute catch all block. As a mom and business owner, I know how overwhelming it can be to juggle constant inputs and endless micro-tasks. That's why I schedule one or two dedicated 30-minute blocks each day—midday and/or at the end of the day—to batch tasks like replying to emails, returning messages, and handling admin work. This simple shift has helped me reduce task switching, clear mental clutter, and protect my focus time for deep work. I use my digital calendar to make these blocks non-negotiable, so I can stay in control and be less reactive throughout the day. If you're looking for more clarity, calm, and productivity, try adding a catch all block to your routine. Plus, if you haven't already, check out my free training on the habits and routines that help me balance business and motherhood here. Free Resources:Join 30 Day Calendar Blocking Blueprint and finally feel in control. ​Click here to join the next round. ​Are you a business owner making $100,000+ and still wearing all the hats? ​Click here​ to learn about my upcoming 12-week Outsourcing Mastermind.Are you an aspiring or newer business owner who needs some accountability and clarity on the next steps? ​Click here​ to join my 6-month accountability group - Simplify.

If you're a mom with ADHD (or parenting kids with ADHD), daily life can feel like constant overcommitment, burnout, and chaos. But what if instead of pushing harder, you learned to strategically parent your brain? In this conversation, I'm joined by Amy Marie Hann—author of Master the Mundane: How to Manage Your Life, Home, and Family as a Mom with ADHD which comes out September 10, 2025. Diagnosed at five with ADHD and raising three neurodivergent kids, Amy brings both lived experience and practical strategies for building rhythms that actually work for the ADHD brain. Together we talk about: The differences between the boredom zone, depletion zone, ADHD burnout, and activation zone—and how to recognize which one you're in Why urgency feels motivating but creates unnecessary chaos in everyday life (and what to do instead) What “executive function capacity” is, and how to “budget” it like a bank account How to use the Daily 3 to keep life moving even on burnout or low-energy days A realistic plan for balancing novelty with capacity so you don't overcommit How to ditch “rage decluttering” and instead create sustainable habits for your home If you've ever felt like your ADHD brain is working against you, this episode will help you see that it's not broken - it just needs the right strategies and support to thrive.   About Amy: Amy Marie Hann is the author of Master the Mundane: How to Manage Your Life, Home, and Family as a Mom with ADHD. Diagnosed with ADHD at age five, she's now a mom of three, a foster and adoptive parent, and a homeschooling mom who has navigated life with ADHD alongside her husband, kids, dad, and sister. Amy believes the ADHD brain is uniquely designed to bring good to the world—and that the greatest gift moms can give their ADHD kids is modeling what it looks like to thrive.

In this episode, I share the story of moving into a new neighborhood, feeling completely alone, and how a simple plate of cookies helped me shift my energy from isolation to connection.

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.

In this episode, I'm walking you through the five spots I'm decluttering and resetting before the school year kicks off — because let's be honest, mornings are already wild enough without tripping over shoes or digging through a messy pantry. These are the zones I'm focusing on to make the back-to-school transition smoother and saner for everyone: The kids' closets and drawers (because suddenly nothing fits??) Our backpack and shoe storage (aka the disaster zone by the door) The pantry — think easy grab-and-go lunch prep + after-school snack flow My car, which has become a traveling trash can this summer The drop zone where backpacks and shoes should land after school I'm also sharing little tips that help me keep these spaces tidy (without having to overhaul them again next week) and why setting up a few of these systems ahead of time makes such a difference in how we all show up. Let's get organized — and stay in sync — for the season ahead. ✨ Thanks for listening! Come say hi over on Instagram: [@joellesuess] and share what YOU'RE resetting before school starts!

SHOW NOTES: Alright, home improvement enthusiasts, welcome back to the Money Pit! We're here to lend a hand with all your indoor and outdoor projects, because remember: Inside, outside, we're on your side! Here are some of the key themes we'll be talking about today, plus solutions we offer for callers' questions: - Cleaning Gutters: Before autumn leaves begin to fall, we're going to share simple steps and smart tools to help you clean and maintain your gutters the safe and easy way, because clogged gutters can lead to major water damage. - Roof Care: We'll tell you how you can catch roof problems early with a free professional inspection from Roof Maxx, the company that restores aging roofs and saves homeowners up to 80% over replacement. - Reducing Clutter: We'll also offer tips on getting organized at home for the fall season, helping you reclaim cluttered spaces like entryways and mudrooms before the school and holiday craziness takes over. - Deep Cleaning Tips: And finally, we'll discuss fall deep cleaning strategies to refresh your home in areas often skipped during summer, like baseboards, ceiling fans, and inside appliances.   Q & A: - Beverly in Ohio called about black marks on her white vinyl fence. We suggest trying a light abrasive like a green Scotch pad first, or for solvent-based marks like tar, a product like WD-40 to lift them off. - Andrew in Wisconsin is dealing with standing water in his backyard that's causing basement wall penetration. We advise implementing a total water management system, including building a French drain, ensuring gutters are properly sized, and downspouts to direct water 4 to 6 feet away from the house. - Anna in South Dakota recently had a hollow tree with a large carpenter ant nest removed and is concerned about infestation. We reassure her that carpenter ants prefer dead or decaying wood and are not typically motivated to infest sound houses, so she's not at an increased risk. - Louise called in about salt mineral deposits leaking through the outside of her brick mailbox. We suggest cleaning the deposits with a white vinegar and water solution, then applying a vapor-permeable silicone-based masonry sealer to prevent their return. - Debbie from Great Falls, Montana, asked about preparing and painting over metal siding. We advise a thorough cleaning with a pressure washer, ensuring the siding is completely dry, and then using an oil-based bonding primer with a scratch test before applying the topcoat, staying within the same brand family for best adhesion.   ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question?

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.

In this second part of last week's discussion, you will continue to learn about anxiety and be inspired to ease your feelings by paying closer attention to them. Kelly speaks with fellow Canadian minimalist, spoken word artist, musician, international best-selling author, and former elementary school teacher, the incredibly insightful Humble the Poet, to share insights from his latest book, Unanxious: 50 Simple Truths to Help Overthinkers Feel Less Stress and More Calm. As Humble shared in the first half of their discussion, anxiety isn't something we should try to eliminate, but something we should get curious about. In this second half, Humble explains how anxiety can also show up in positive moments, and how learning to sit with our feelings can build lasting resilience. Together, they explore how removing external stimulants can lower our baseline anxiety, and how recognizing our emotional triggers — including those rooted in childhood — can reveal where the real work lies. They also walk through relatable, everyday anxiety-inducing scenarios and share practical tools — from setting boundaries with ourselves and others to intentionally doing small, uncomfortable things to build emotional strength. Be inspired to see anxiety as a natural human signal, and feel motivated to improve your relationship with it so you can transform your life for the better.

Understanding Labels and Diagnoses in Decluttering: Empowering or Limiting? This episode delves into the roles of labels and diagnoses such as ADHD, autism, OCD, and anxiety in the context of decluttering and organising. The hosts discuss how a diagnosis can provide clarity and relief but can also feel limiting or overwhelming. They share their personal experiences, emphasising the importance of individuality and the need for practical strategies that work with unique brain functions and habits. The conversation explores how labels can both empower and hold people back, providing insights and practical tips for working with neurodiversity in the decluttering process. Highlights include the significance of having fewer possessions and using labeled containers to maintain order, along with the value of self-awareness and ongoing learning.

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.
