This week, I want to share a little holiday encouragement for you: progress doesn’t have to be perfect to make a big difference. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your decluttering journey because you want to do it “the right way” or because you’re waiting for the perfect moment, you’re not alone. This episode will help you shift your focus from perfection to progress so you can start creating a home that works for your family—without the overwhelm.

In this episode, I cover:

✨ Why perfectionism can keep us from taking that first step to simplify.

✨ How to reframe your organizing mindset

✨ Why identifying your values is key to making confident decluttering decisions.

✨ How my brand-new resource, The Decide Guide: A Room-by-Room Resource to Declutter with Confidence, can help you simplify one space at a time—without overthinking or getting stuck.

You’ll also hear a personal story about how perfectionism showed up for me in my classroom and the moment I realized that sometimes we just need a little encouragement (or validation!) to move forward.

Hey there, friends! If you’ve ever felt like your brain is on overdrive from the constant noise, visual clutter, and demands of daily life, you’re not alone. In this episode of the Stress Less Podcast, we’re diving into a topic that hits home for so many moms—especially those navigating life with ADHD: overstimulation.

I’m sharing how overstimulation shows up in my life—both in the classroom and in my home life—and what I’ve learned about managing it. From sensory triggers like noise and clutter to the mental toll of multitasking, I'm breaking down what overstimulation looks like, why it feels so intense for moms with ADHD, and how it impacts our ability to show up for our families.
