When you think of the word “legacy”, what comes to mind? What we leave behind for the ones we love? What if I told you that the legacy we leave our kids is a result of our actions today? In this eye-opening conversation with Julie Redmond on the Mom Made Plans podcast, we discuss the unhealthy coping mechanisms (including scrolling) that I've used to deal with the stresses of motherhood, and how recognizing the legacy I wanted to leave has allowed me to shift my perspective. I also offer some tactical strategies on how to leave a legacy by how we live in the mundane moments of motherhood. Julie, a two-time guest on Moms Overcoming Overwhelm, is a twin mom and host of the  Mom Made Plans podcast.  She is on a mission to make mom-life feel easier by getting out of survival mode and into intentional motherhood. She fully believes no routine or system will work until you know how you work. That means using self awareness filled strategies to become more efficient and impactful in your home.

I struggled to get pregnant and felt completely overwhelmed - until I discovered decluttering could create the physical and emotional space I needed to become a mom.   Now, two kids later, I've transformed my life and motherhood by developing simple systems around decluttering, capsule wardrobes, kids stuff, cleaning and tidying, meal planning, time management, and more- and I can't wait to share them with you!   If you're ready to reclaim the time and energy you crave, be present with your kids, and finally enjoy the life and motherhood you SO deserve - let's kick overwhelm to the curb, shall we?

I'm Kara, a Christian entrepreneur, amateur snowboarder, and scholarship BEAST! I figured out how to not only finish college debt-free, but I even had $10k left over in the bank after graduation. (& btw, my parents weren't able to help me financially either!)   During school, I was worried about paying for next semester. I couldn't find scholarships that worked specifically for me, and didn't know how to get started while juggling homework and keeping up with ALL.THE.THINGS.   But dude, I learned there was a better way! With God's direction, I tested out of classes, and found the perfect scholarships, grants, internships, and weird budget hacks that helped me go from overwhelmed to debt-free with $10k in the bank–all with God on my side.   ... and I'm here to walk you through this, too.   If you are ready to find scholarships specific to you, learn to manage your money well, and have enough money to kill it at college, this pod is for you!   So grab your cold brew and TI-89, and listen in on the most stress-free and debt-free class you've ever attended: this is Money and Mental Peace.   Topics included in this podcast: money management, manage money, money, broke, waste of money, college, debt-free, overwhelmed, work life balance, Dave Ramsey, budget tips, student, find scholarships, financial peace, financial peace university, FPU, college degree online, minimalism, minimal, declutter, clutter

Emily McDermot hosts the “Moms Overcoming Overwhelm” podcast and coaches people through decluttering their homes and hearts in order to make space for their purpose and calling.  She shares her heart of how she spent almost a decade decluttering which was born out of her struggle with infertility and her hopes of one day having space for a baby.   She relatably shares how we're all responsible for our own stuff, and then we get married and have kids and we feel like we're a full time stuff manager.  Can you relate?   As a wife and a mom, let's organize and declutter not for the sake of being on top of our homes, lets not organize and simplify for the sake of having a pinterest perfect home, but let's do it because we're made for more than being full time stuff managers.  We have to clear the excess so we can live in that calling.    What are 4 things that clutter robs us from? Time - having to tidy & organize or clean around things, the “stuff shuffle”  In a uncluttered home there's 40% less housework Peace - clutter stresses us out, no matter our clutter threshold It actually affects our cortisol levels. Physical Health Clutter impacts your sleep because your brain registers clutter as undone tasks. Energy Declutter fatigue is a real thing and it's causing us to feel stuck.   If we can remove unnecessary decisions we can have more energy to make decisions that matter.

Did you know that the average American child receives over $6500 worth of toys before they reach their teens (source) but 8 of 10 kids play with 20 toys or fewer (source)? If your home is filled to the brim with toys - most of which your kids never touch - then a toy library may be a solution for you! Lisa Bourven is mom of two and was a stay-at-home-mom for almost nine years after leaving her career in corporate-level retail operations and analytics. She is married to a Frenchman and earned a graduate business degree in France, where she experienced the joy of living in a small space with less. After seeing the need for a “stay and play” solution that would alleviate many problems in her family's life (boredom, toy clutter, waste, budget, and tiny play space), The Toy Nest was born. On today's episode, Lisa and I speak about why she started The Toy Nest, the benefits of borrowing toys and enjoying the community that a toy library offers, and alternative options to borrow toys if you don't live close to a toy library. Do you live in Northern Virginia? Here's a special offer when you visit the Toy Nest and mention the Moms Overcoming Overwhelm podcast - you'll get one month of Flock membership for the price of Fledgling membership!

Hey Friend! I was completely exhausted from constantly feeling tied to my phone. I spent hours and hours on social media every day, posting and scrolling while missing what was happening right in front of me, convinced that social media was the way (the only way!) to grow my business. I felt ruled by this little device and I didn't know how to control it. Our phones are a luxury, to be sure, and they can be used for good, especially when it comes to running a business. But there's a fine line we tend to cross over where our relationship with our phone becomes unhealthy. It's easy to be completely obsessed and dare I say? Addicted! This used to be my story. In today's guest episode, you'll hear my conversation with my friend Emily McDermott on her podcast Moms Overcoming Overwhelm.

If you're ready to reclaim your precious resources of time, energy, attention, and focus and create the motherhood and life you want on YOUR terms - this podcast is for you.   Hi, I'm Emily - a wife, #boymom, and simplicity seeker. I struggled to get pregnant and felt completely overwhelmed - until I discovered decluttering could create the physical and emotional space I needed to become a mom.   Now, two kids later, I've transformed my life and motherhood by developing simple systems around decluttering, capsule wardrobes, kids stuff, cleaning and tidying, meal planning, time management, and more- and I can't wait to share them with you!   If you're ready to reclaim the time and energy you crave, be present with your kids, and finally enjoy the life and motherhood you SO deserve - let's kick overwhelm to the curb, shall we?

This podcast will help you find and get scholarships, avoid student loans and maybe even graduate college debt-free!   Hey!

I couldn't find scholarships that worked specifically for me, and didn't know how to get started while juggling homework and keeping up with ALL.THE.THINGS.   But dude, I learned there was a better way! With God's direction, I tested out of classes, and found the perfect scholarships, grants, internships, and weird budget hacks that helped me go from overwhelmed to debt-free with $10k in the bank–all with God on my side.   ... and I'm here to walk you through this, too.   If you are ready to find scholarships specific to you, learn to manage your money well, and have enough money to kill it at college, this pod is for you!   So grab your cold brew and TI-89, and listen in on the most stress-free and debt-free class you've ever attended: this is Money and Mental Peace.   Topics included in this podcast: money management, manage money, money, broke, waste of money, college, debt-free, overwhelmed, work life balance, Dave Ramsey, budget tips, student, find scholarships, financial peace, financial peace university, FPU, college degree online, minimalism, minimal, declutter, clutter

Because that legacy is created by how we spend our time today... Get to know our guest: Emily McDermott is a wife, mother of two energetic boys, and simplicity seeker.

Do you have piles of paper that are constantly shuffled around from place to place?   Do you lack a system around all the paper coming into your home?   Today I'm sharing my no-fail paper processing routine around the three main categories of paper that my mamas struggle with the most - mail, kids' school papers, and kids' artwork.   Resources Mentioned (may include affiliate links):   The paper tray/inbox I use in my kitchen looks like this one I use the ScanSnap scanner. Mine works with Evernote but they make other models as well. Amazon Basics 12-sheet paper shredder   For mail:   To unsubscribe: For catalogs you don't want, use Catalog Choice. Dmachoice.org to unsubscribe from mailing lists Optoutprescreen.com for credit card solicitations yellowpagesoptout.com for phone books Magazines - depends on the magazine but the company needs to be contacted directly in most cases. If you don't want the physical copy, your local library may have access to magazines through Libby or Overdrive. Mine has 3,900 magazines available!    For kids' school papers:   I use Evernote (especially the Evernote app) to easily capture kids' school work and artwork I want to keep. Here's a short Reel showing you how I use it.   For kids' artwork and crafts:   If artwork doesn't go on my kids' corkboards in their rooms, I leave it in art purgatory for a few months. Then I go through it and will either take a photo using Evernote or throw it away.   I will keep a limited number of items (especially with handprints, etc.) in a physical file folder after I have taken a photo or scanned it.   Other ways to keep your kids artwork is using a system like Artkive and Keepy. They are apps that have paid and free versions that can take your kids' artwork and make art books or framed mosaics out of them.    ***   Have a question about decluttering, simplifying, systems, or anything else we talk about on the podcast? You can now leave me a voice message here. Look for the microphone that says START RECORDING.

Today I am thrilled to bring you an interview with Dani Watson. Dani is a former first grade teacher turned home decorator. She describes herself as a daughter of the King, wife, boy mom and popcorn enthusiast. She's the host of the #1 ranked home design podcast, fig & farm at home.   What I love about Dani and why I invited her on the show is that she teaches busy moms with REAL homes and REAL budgets how to break free from the Pinterest perfect trap to create a home that tells their story with their style. She also grew up in a cluttered environment, and this really influenced her intentional approach to design and decorating.   As we are decluttering, we want to keep in mind what is most important to us. And that includes asking ourselves how we want our home to feel, and what story we want it to tell. Dani believes that homes are a canvas for storytelling, and learning how to intentionally decorate your home can help make it the restful haven you want it to be, not a cluttered, overwhelming place. And spoiler alert - the secret to intentional design is not buying every throw pillow you can find at Home Goods or Target!   Resources Mentioned:   Dani Watson's Podcast, fig & farm (at home)   Connect with Dani on Instagram or join her Design 101 Facebook Group   Dani's course, Design 101 will be open for enrollment March 16, 2023   My interview on Dani's podcast   Have a question about decluttering, simplifying, systems, or anything else we talk about on the podcast?

Have you ever looked around your house and thought to yourself, “I don't like it here?” Has your home ever felt like a prison filled with stuff, rather than a peaceful haven? If so, you're going to love my conversation today with my friend Elyse Rooney.   Elyse shares a powerful story of the moment she realized she didn't like being in her home, a moment that prompted her to grab the trash bags and start to ruthlessly declutter the things that weren't serving her and her family. If you have ever felt anxious and overwhelmed in your home and knew something needed to change, I know you're going to love her story.   Elyse lives in Australia with her husband and 3 children. She is a Christian Motherhood coach and chai latte enthusiast (something she and I have in common). Elyse helps moms, or “mums” as they say in Australia, of young kids to step into their calling of homemaking and raising their children. She is passionate about helping overwhelmed mums trade stress for peace and create flow in their home. Elyse also shares her journey of moving to a slow, simple way of living and why all mothers should embrace a more holistic, natural lifestyle. Elyse is the host of a top 1.5% global podcast, The Wholesome Mumma Show. She believes it is possible to spend quality time with your children, without the mum guilt of letting the home or the to do list go.   Resources Mentioned:   The Wholesome Mumma Show   Elyse's website   Elyse's course - The Home Detox Method   Connect with Elyse on Instagram   My interview on Elyse's podcast   ***   I help moms declutter their homes, heads, and hearts.   Hey there, mama.

When it comes to decluttering, you need to ask yourself some tough questions. Marie Kondo made this type of questioning popular with her favorite: “Does it spark joy?” While this may work for some items, I personally don't think it's a very helpful litmus test for deciding what to keep and what to toss. So today I'm sharing four lesser-known, but powerful questions that I use regularly in my own decluttering practice that will help you declutter more effectively.    GIVEAWAY ALERT!

If you search for decluttering tips in Pinterest, you will find hundreds of ideas, decluttering challenges, and the like. But what you won't find as much as is how to prevent excess stuff that becomes clutter from coming into your house in the first place. Recommending that people buy less is not supported by our consumerist culture.   The hard truth is that if you want to stop constantly decluttering, you have to be more intentional and, dare I say ruthless, with what you are bringing into your home. You have to be mindful of the still small voice that is questioning your purchases in the moment.    In today's episode, I share the three things you need to STOP doing in order to get out from under your clutter.    Resources Mentioned:   Toy Survey   Unroll.me   Buy Nothing Groups   Freecycle   Episodes Mentioned:    Episode 4: THIS is Why You Don't Have the Time to Declutter   Episode 19: Exhausted and Burnt Out with NO Energy to Declutter as a Busy Mom?

On January 26th, 2023, a Washington Post article about Marie Kondo, the patron saint of decluttering and tidying, was anything anyone could talk about on my Facebook and Instagram feeds.   Was it true? Had Marie Kondo, whose career exploded because of her book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, truly “given up” on the very thing she said was life-changing now that she was a mom of three?   Reading the clickbait titles of online articles like these, it seemed to be true:   “Marie Kondo's House is Messy. Should You Give Up on Being Tidy, Too?” “Marie Kondo has Finally Realized What it Costs to Be Tidy - and Like Me, Has Decided to Chill the Hell Out”   But in reading the Washington Post article itself, and looking at Kondo's exact words, I'm not planning to let go of the decluttering and tidying systems in my home that help support my physical, emotional, and mental health. Kondo isn't giving up on tidying in the sense that her house is going to be in the next episode of Hoarders. On the contrary, she has given up on something far more important. She has given up on unrealistic expectations, and issue that plagues me and pretty much every mom I've ever met.    So in today's episode, we're going to see Marie Kondo's words for what they are and learn about the three things she can teach us about letting go of unrealistic expectations to live a life that truly sparks joy.   Resources Mentioned:   Washington Post Article about Marie Kondo   Episodes Mentioned:    Episode 17: Decluttering Our Self-Talk with Julia Ubbenga from Rich in What Matters   Episode 8: Is Clutter Stealing from You? 4 Things You Can Reclaim Now Even as a Busy Mom   ***   I help moms declutter their homes, heads, and hearts.   Hey there, mama.

One of the main questions I get from moms is about how to simplify and streamline their wardrobe. We've all been there - our closets are stuffed with clothes and yet we have “nothing to wear”.

If you're going through your days exhausted, burnt out, and not sure how you're going to find an ounce of energy to declutter anything, I have an idea what the culprit may be. Too much stuff means too many choices and too many decisions, which causes decision fatigue!

Are you a Stuff Manager?  Or maybe a Stuff Shuffler? Whatever you call it, managing stuff is a problem so many of us mamas face daily. Moving piles of stuff to sit down for dinner, putting kids' stuff away to make space for a family movie night, picking stuff off the floor of your closet that doesn't have a proper home anymore. What if, instead of ignoring the elephant in the room, we actually kicked it out? What if, we gathered together enough time, tips, support, encouragement, and accountability to make headway in this problem area that so many of us have had for years.  What if...instead of spending our time moving piles of stuff we were able to play games with our kiddos each night? What if...instead of letting the stuff on the table win, we were able to sit at the dinner table as a family and share a meal and conversation together? What if...instead of picking through the pile of clothes each morning wondering which shirt is clean and which is dirty, we were able to find a clean shirt hanging in the shirt section in our closet?

There are so many roadblocks to decluttering that we've spoken about in previous episodes - how long we've owned something, how much we paid for it, thinking that we might use it “someday” or we “should” keep it because it's sentimental, or belonged to a family member.   But there is one huge roadblock that we're going to dive into today - something we tell ourselves over and over again. In fact, the two guys who call themselves The Minimalists say that these are the 3 most dangerous words in the English language. Can you guess what they are? We're going to chat about them and how we can shift our mindset to kickstart our decluttering efforts in a powerful way.    Episodes Mentioned:    Episode 10: The MOST Challenging Type of Clutter for Moms! 4 Kinds of Aspirational Clutter and How to Finally Let Go   Episode 9: Stop Holding Onto Stuff Because of What You Paid for It! 3 Tips to Overcome This Common Decluttering Roadblock   Episode 8: Is Clutter Stealing from You? 4 Things You Can Reclaim Now Even as a Busy Mom   ***   I help moms declutter their homes, heads, and hearts.   Hey there, mama.

Whether overt or perceived, guilt is a major reason why we hold onto what we don't need. And family guilt is particularly tricky, because relationships are involved which (as we know) can be very complex. We have to tread lightly while still holding our boundaries around what comes across the threshold of our front door.   In today's episode I'm going to give you three tips on how to deal with the guilt you may feel, so that you stop saying yes to stuff you don't want or need out of guilt, and can let go of what you may already have in your home that isn't serving you or your family.  Resources Mentioned:   Your Spacious Self by Stephanie Bennett Vogt   *Note - affiliate links may be included which means that I get a small commission from any qualifying purchases you make from the link.

Today I'm thrilled to bring you my first interview on the podcast. Once a month I will introduce you to a mom who has overcome overwhelm through decluttering and simplifying. Today I chat with Sarah from Simple + Intentional. Sarah is a full-time teacher, mom + wife who is passionate about helping women change their lives through decluttering.    After a cancer diagnosis in 2014, she discovered her perfectionism + people pleasing were holding her back + creating a lot of overwhelm. This was also the year she first discovered minimalism and slowly started getting rid of things.   Fast forward to 2018 and becoming a mom. The overwhelm forced Sarah to start examining her relationship with stuff and the big purge began. And she hasn't looked back!    Now Sarah helps other moms deal with their clutter, get organized and create systems + routines to make life easier.   You can find her on Instagram, her website or in the simple + intentional Facebook community   ***   I help moms declutter their homes, heads, and hearts.   Hey there, mama.

Sentimental items. They are the things we keep because they have meaning to us. They are imbued with memories. Or perhaps they don't mean a lot to us, but they belonged to a family member and remind us of that person.    Of course we should surround ourselves with things that have meaning to us, but when sentimental items become clutter because of how much we're keeping (and where we're keeping it- typically in dusty boxes), we need to really evaluate what we have any why.    Today we chat about 3 mindset hacks that will help make decluttering sentimental items easier. If you need help with yours, make sure to join us in our free Facebook group! We are doing a 30-day decluttering challenge to help you declutter before the end of 2022.   GIVEAWAY!

Where do I start and when do I find the time? When I coach other moms, these are the same two questions I get time and time again. And I get it. When you're overwhelmed, it's hard to look at something as daunting as decluttering and think that something that requires so much energy and focus is something you can handle when you're so inundated already. It's one more thing to do on a never ending to-do list. And when it comes to time, it's hard to even remember if you ate breakfast today, let alone whether you can squeeze in the time to declutter a junk drawer. Today I talk about why we feel so overwhelmed by the idea of decluttering, which causes us to avoid it altogether. Here is the recent Instagram post I mention about the three layers of stuff.

It's true, the day in a life of a mother can have its mundane moments and often we do have a seed of desire in our hearts for more or at times something different than is currently happening, It's then we can come back to empowerment that you get to think and feel about your vocation, no matter what you choose, have chosen or will choose in the future. This episode includes a special poem by Emily McDermott that sums up beautiful thoughts on what it means to be "just" a mom.
