About this episode

Are you struggling to declutter? Feeling overwhelmed by clutter but deep down, you're scared to let go? I’ve been there—and in this episode, I’m getting real about the fear, anxiety, and trauma that fuel the scarcity mindset.

In this powerful, honest, and practical episode, I open up about my own past with extreme scarcity and how it shaped my home—and my life. If you're stuck in a clutter cycle that feels impossible to escape, this episode will show you a way out.

You’ll learn:

⭐ What the scarcity cycle is (and why it's so sneaky) ⭐ Why decluttering feels terrifying for so many of us ⭐ Emotional signs you’re stuck in survival mode ⭐ Practical ways to start breaking free—without burning out ⭐ Why starting with expired Caesar dressing might change your life ⭐ The “container concept” and one-year rule that makes decluttering easier ⭐ How gratitude journaling literally rewires your brain to see abundance

This isn’t just about getting rid of stuff—it’s about healing. It's about moving from survival mode to THRIVING. You don’t need more bins. You don’t need more stuff. You need trust in yourself, a trash bag, and tiny steps forward.

💪 Let’s break this cycle together—hit play, grab a bag, and start letting go.
