Hey Guys,
You know that moment when you walk through your house and think, "I need to do something about this" — and then life pulls you in another direction?
This episode is about why that happens, especially for women who spend their lives taking care of everyone else — and how to finally stop the cycle without shame, pressure, or burnout.
When your nervous system is taxed from doing, managing, and holding everything together, your home often becomes the last thing you tend to. And then the guilt sets in. But clutter isn't a personal failure — it's a physiological response to overload.
The 4-Step Reset You'll Practice
When you notice stress or shame rising around clutter:
1. Label the feeling – Name what's actually happening in your body
2. Somatic anchoring – Place your hands on your body to signal safety
3. Exposure + acceptance – Stay present instead of avoiding
4. Self-compassion – Acknowledge that you were doing the best you could
This is how change starts — without forcing yourself to "do more."
Important Reminder
You can start with your nervous system.
You can start with your home.
Either way, you're moving toward regulation and order — as long as you're not doing it from pressure, shame, or control.
Regulate your nervous system, take action, and your identity shifts as a result.
