Hey there, mama. Are you tired of all the STUFF crowding your home, calendar, and mind? Do you wish you could say goodbye to the endless to-do list running around in your head, while you’re running around in the middle of the mess? Want to declutter but don’t know where to start? Are your dreams buried under piles of toys and laundry?
Welcome to Moms Overcoming Overwhelm, where you will find proven and practical solutions to declutter your home, head, and heart. 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? Grab your lukewarm coffee, your notebook and pen, and clear off some counter space! Let’s do this.

Have you ever attempted to follow a cleaning schedule - but failed?
Do you buy planners and never use them?
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to chores, cleaning, tidying, or home management in general! We need to create chore systems that work WITH our brain!
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Kelly Briggs from Simple Home Mom all about her best tips for approaching chores with self-compassion, especially if you are neurodivergent or have neurodivergent kiddos!
Kelly has five kiddos ranging from 1 to 13 and started her simple living journey after her third child was born, when she realized that routines were needed in order to keep her sanity! She provides practical tips to help moms make their home lives easier. She writes over on Substack and has free and paid posts for those who need more support - offering tips, printables, audios, and more!

In her book The Four Tendencies, author and podcaster Gretchen Rubin outlines her personality framework based upon how you respond to internal and external expectations.

Today I dive a bit more into Rubin’s four tendencies and provide some additional recommendations on how to create a personalzed decluttering plan based upon your type! Resources Mentioned (affiliate links may be included):

Imagine this scene: You’re shopping in Target with one child pulling on your leg and the other grabbing random items off the shelves, wailing, “PLEEEEASE Mommy can I have this?” An elderly woman in the same aisle smiles at you and says, “You’re going to miss this, dear! The days are long but the years are short!”
Or imagine that you buy a parenting book about a discipline approach that your sister-in-law raves about, but when you try it at home it just makes you feel uneasy. But it’s all you’re seeing on your Instagram ads and hearing about from your mom friends, so you decide just to push through, even though it’s making you miserable.
Whether unrealistic expectations are placed on us by well-meaning people, or we place them on ourselves due to our own childhood experiences, it is something that constantly plagues us with self-doubt. Am I doing enough? Am I doing this right?
On today’s episode, I’m talking with Danielle Bettmann, parenting coach at Parenting Wholeheartedly and the host of the Failing Motherhood Podcast, about how we can declutter these unrealistic expectations and have confidence in our parenting again.
Danielle is a positive-Discipline certified parenting coach who empowers parents to crack the code of their strong-willed child's personality, meet their deepest core needs to improve their behavior, and find new levels of patience. An early childhood educator, certified teacher and home visitor, Danielle now equips parents from all over via Zoom!
Instead of inadvertently inviting defiance by using traditional tools or playing "whack-a-mole" with short-sighted reactions, families get on the same page and learn how to cultivate cooperation while being KIND + FIRM at the same time! Host of the well-loved podcast, Failing Motherhood, she's passionate about eliminating shame from parents' vocabulary, reminding them they are the parent their kids need. She is also a mom to two daughters, wife of 15 years to her high-school sweetheart, and an avid fan of sunshine and coffee.
Resources Mentioned:
Connect with Danielle on her website, her podcast, and Instagram.
I would highly recommend her FREE Calm + Confident masterclass where you’ll learn how to master the KIND + FIRM approach that your strong-willed child needs without crushing their spirit or walking on eggshells.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, creating a “yes” list - a list of everything you’ve said yes to - is a powerful tool to help you understand why you’re saying yes, what needs to change, and how to get yourself out of chaos. My return guest, Jessica Jackson, has amazing insights to share on this important topic!
Jessica is a homeschooling mother of four children, host of Thriving in Motherhood Podcast, creator of the Thriving in Motherhood Planner and Journal, and cheerleader in her program the Surviving to Thriving Toolkit. She knows what it is like to try and find peace and balance between running a business, a household, and creating a strong family culture while real life keeps happening.
After years of struggle she realized there are simple, practical things she can do to stop in living survival mode no matter her circumstances and find meaning and joy in everyday life. Her mission is to empower women to go from surviving motherhood to soaring - using their unique gifts and talents, having a relationship with God, experiencing life as the grand adventure it is, and enjoying meaningful relationships with friends and family.

Sometimes when we are feeling overwhelmed, we have to ask ourselves some hard questions, like:
“Am I causing my own chaos?”
When we understand our non-negotiables and say yes to what aligns with our values rather than what we think others expect from us, we can enjoy contentment in our motherhood.
In today’s episode I’m chatting with Andrea Dekker, a wife and mother of 4 young children who loves nothing more than being home!
Andrea blogs at andreadekker.com, where she shares her passions for creating a peaceful home, pursuing a simpler + slower lifestyle, and encouraging women in all stages of life to lean into their values and live more intentionally.
We chat about the transition to motherhood that caused her to feel overwhelmed, how she learned to start saying “no” and embrace her season of motherhood, and what back-to-school routines look like in her home!

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.

How does decluttering and organizing allow us to calm the overwhelm in our lives? In this interview on the Motherhood Restored Podcast, I chat with Natalie Hixson about the three causes of overwhelm, reducing decision fatigue, the power of saying NO and minding our “shoulds”, and much more!
Natalie Hixson is a wife, mama to three, and Certified professional Christian life coach. She helps discouraged Christian moms overcome destructive anger and burnout.
After learning to thrive in motherhood and process anger in a healthy way, Natalie became convicted to help other moms avoid those dark years of motherhood by helping them to appreciate and process their anger, learn to identify their triggers, and ultimately control their reaction to those triggering situations.

Are you overwhelmed by clutter? Overstimulated easily? Sensitive to noise, touch, caffeine, or sensory input in general? You may be a highly sensitive person, like me. Being an HSP has impacted my parenting in huge ways, including how I respond to sensory input, touch, and noise (hello, two boys!)
In this interview on the Failing Motherhood Podcast, I talk about my struggles with anger in my early motherhood and how I was able to cope - by decluttering, simplifying, and also therapy, medication, mindfulness, and other strategies.
If you struggle with anger in your motherhood or feel constantly overwhelmed, this episode is for you.
Danielle Bettmann, the amazing host of Failing Motherhood, is a parenting coach for families with 1-10-year-old strong-willed kids. You can learn more about Danielle here.

In this episode “remix” I’m bringing you the best clips from my conversation with Lisa Lizotte from the Habits and Home Show all about why resets are the #1 habit to keep your home clutter-free.
Lisa is a wife, mom of three and cheerleader for anyone wanting to simplify their life so that they can enjoy it more. Lisa first tried living as a minimalist but no matter how few possessions she owned, she still struggled to keep up with it all. Then she discovered the solution to the chaos was to simplify and systemize her home to support life-changing habits. Through this process, she’s been able to keep up with daily home management and be more mentally present with her family.
📣 PODCAST UPDATE: I’m taking a break for the summer! You will see replays/interviews I’ve had on others’ shows on Thursdays from now until Thursday, August 15th. I will be back with all new episodes on Tuesday, August 20th! 📣

The term “minimalism” can be a turnoff to those who think that it’s legalistic, restrictive, or requires that you only own a certain amount of stuff. But minimalism has many facets, and it’s a tool that can help you live a more intentional, peaceful life.
In this episode I’m joined again by Desirae Endres from the popular podcast Minimal-ish. We chat about how to make minimalism your own, and what she sees are the four pillars of minimalism.
Desirae is a wife, mom to two girls, and the host of the Minimal-ish podcast where she talks about all things realistic minimalism, motherhood, and intentional living. In 2018, Desirae and her husband set out to live with less clutter in their home. Soon she found that the journey to less was about so much more than a clutter-free home.
Desirae believes that a less cluttered life is where the idea of minimalism really makes a difference- a life focused on more of what matters, and less of what doesn‘t. She is passionate about sharing her journey and walking alongside podcast listeners towards a less cluttered, more intentional life.

Do you feel like you're constantly in survival mode?
Do you wish you could calm the chaos and finally live more intentionally?
Taking a personal inventory may be the key to taking stock of where you're at right now, understanding your needs, and then moving forward on a path of sustainable self-care.
Today's guest is Kari Davis from The Well - Health and Wholeness Podcast. She is founder of thewellteam.com and a certified Holistic Life Coach and an essential oils educator. Kari is passionate about empowering women with the tools they need to reclaim their life through self care, health and finding their identity while embracing the idea of a natural and non-toxic lifestyle in their products and mindset. Kari and her husband, Bobby, live in Naples, Florida with their combined five children.
Kari and I talk about how her life "derailed" after the unexpected death of her husband TJ in 2015 and the steps she took to take inventory of her life and proactively redefine self-care so she could move forwards.

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!

Many of the mamas in the Moms Overcoming Overwhelm Facebook community have shared that they struggle with ADHD, and many have been recently diagnosed. In fact, Epic Research recently reported that the percentage of adult women who were newly diagnosed nearly doubled in the U.S. between 2020 and 2022.
ADHD impacts attention, focus, and impulsive behavior, and can make activities like decluttering (that require sustained focus and attention) difficult.
On today’s episode, productivity expert Alicia Cohen dives into ADHD - what it is, what it isn’t, and the productivity tips that will benefit anyone who struggles with sustained focus and attention - even if you don’t have ADHD.
Alicia Cohen specializes in prioritization and time management. She built her business, Alicia Cohen Designs, based on her own journey of overcoming her overwhelmed and frazzled life -- what she calls the "hamster wheel marathon" -- and now teaches others the methods that she discovered and uses personally.
With Alicia’s support, busy people learn intentional planning, effective productivity, and high-impact mindset shifts that enable them to transform from constantly feeling behind to designing lives that work and feel good.
Alicia is based in the U.S. where she lives with her husband and children. She finds great joy in homeschooling her children and marvels at how blessed she is.

Do you struggle with intense premenstrual symptoms including mood changes, irritability, depression, anxiety, and physical symptoms that prevent you from engaging in your normal life?
Depending on the severity of your symptoms, you may have Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), which affects 31 million people worldwide. PMDD is a chronic, debilitating condition in which the brain has an abnormal--and outsized--response to the normal hormonal changes of the menstrual cycle.
On today’s episode, Diane deJesus shares her journey of struggling with PMDD and how minimalism, simplifying her life, and mindfulness have allowed her to mitigate her symptoms and live a more peaceful, full life.
Diane is a registered dietitian, lactation consultant, trauma-informed mindfulness teacher, and a mom, living with After hitting rock bottom, unable to work, and barely able to perform daily tasks, Diane found peace and acceptance in her relationship with PMDD, through the practice of mindfulness. As a result, she was able to re-engage with her life and rediscover herself. Diane now helps others with the condition to Live Better with Mindfulness for PMDD. A dual citizen of the US and UK, Diane currently lives in Texas with her husband, son, and Yorkie puppy.

As you embark on your decluttering and simplifying journey, you start to ask yourself questions such as:
What am I making space for?
What dreams have been buried in the stuff and chaos around me?
Where do I find my self-worth as a mom and woman? Is it in the roles that I play and the things I own, or something deeper?
When we start simplifying and creating space in our homes, calendars, and minds, it opens up so much more than extra square footage or hours in our day. It allows us to dream, to see where our self-worth truly comes from outside what we have and what we do, and to reach our greatest potential as moms and women.
On today’s episode, simplicity coach Rose Lounsbury and I discuss these topics and much more!
Rose helps busy working moms declutter their homes, simplify their work lives, and clear their minds. After struggling to balance a teaching career and 2-year-old triplets, Rose was introduced to minimalism in 2012. Inspired by the “less is more” philosophy, she let go of 70% of her family’s possessions in eight months. She eventually left the classroom to pursue a career helping other working moms create happier lives with less stuff. Rose’s advice has been featured on TEDx and USA Today, and she’s been a guest on Good Day Columbus, WYSO, WVXU, and Good Morning Cincinnati.

Once I removed the physical clutter and calendar clutter that was no longer serving me, I was left with my thoughts. We can’t control our thoughts and according to research we have 12,000-16,000 of them a day. But the issue is that 80% are negative and 95% are repetitive - in other words, they are the negative thoughts, limiting beliefs, “shoulds”, and to-do’s swirling around in our brain.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing my simple four-step plan to master your mental clutter, so you can stop feeling scattered and distracted in your life and motherhood.

How do we find the magic in the “blessed mundane” of motherhood?
How do we overcome the martyr mindset and see motherhood as a powerful calling?
How do we look outside of our circumstances to see the big picture of our impact on our kids and future generations?
Kirsten Vossler, wife and homeschool mom of 9 children (soon to be 10!) has some ideas. In today’s episode, Kirsten talks about how she was able to shift her mindset - and her unrealistic expectations - to find joy in her motherhood and embrace it as holy work and a high calling from God. Kirsten loves encouraging, inspiring, and equipping moms to grow in joy and find fulfillment in their motherhood through her Rejoicing in Motherhood Podcast.

Right now you are likely experiencing the post-holiday glow…or the post-holiday spending hangover. And even if you didn’t blow your budget in 2023, you may struggle with impulse purchases. The average American spent $151 per month on impulse purchases in 2023, or over $1800 in a year. If spending money more intentionally in 2024 is one of your goals, today’s episode with Meghan Dwyer is for you.
Meghan is a Certified Financial Planner and host of the Money Isn’t Scary podcast. After spending 15 years watching women take a passive role in the management of their money, she’s on a mission to help them stop playing small. By challenging the societal norms around women and money, Meghan aims to empower women to make money decisions out of a sense of abundance and confidence, rather than scarcity and fear. When Meghan isn’t working, she loves running, writing, and being mom to her two young boys.
On today’s episode, Meghan shares her best tips on developing a values-based spending strategy so you can go into 2024 with confidence - rather than with a bunch of stuff you wish you hadn’t bought from Amazon!

I’ve been pursuing a simpler, more minimal lifestyle for almost a decade and have learned a lot along the way. But hosting this podcast continues to teach me something new every week! So here’s 23 things I’ve learned about decluttering in 2023.
Last days of my GIVEAWAY! If you leave a written review in Apple Podcasts between December 12, 2023 and December 31, 2023 AND send a screenshot of the review ([email protected] or direct message me on Facebook or Instagram), you’ll be in the running for a free autographed copy of my children’s book Little One. Great as a gift for the little ones in your life!
Resources Mentioned:
Here’s the list of 23 things I learned about decluttering in 2023 with links to all the relevant episodes!
1. I need to always remind myself why I’m holding on, and why I’m letting go. (Episode 3)
2. My emotions and thoughts are not my reality. I can feel overwhelm (vibration in my body) and have a thought, but can always ask if the thought is true. My thoughts are not me. (Episode 82)
3. I can have the courage to understand my values and live in alignment with them, even if they aren’t what everyone else does. (Episode 3)
4. Decluttering unemotional areas first gives me the momentum and the strength of small wins so I can do harder things. (Episode 5)
5. Artificial boundaries, including margins in my day, allow me to live within my capacity. (Episode 6 and Episode 30)
6. What I model to my kids matters. (Episode 18)
7. If decluttering is decision making, clutter is delayed decisions. (Episode 6)
8. Decluttering is reclaiming what is rightfully mine - my time, energy, focus, and attention. (Episode 8)
9. Once I’ve paid for something with money, I don’t have to keep paying for it with my time and energy. I can let go of the guilt and move on. (Episode 9)
10. Keeping aspirational clutter - things that we used to do, that used to fit us - just makes me feel bad about myself. I can let it go knowing that in another season, I may be able to get back to those things but I don’t have to feel bad about my life now. (Episode 10)
11. Just because an item has memories attached, doesn’t mean I need to keep it if the memories aren’t positive ones. (Episode 11)
12. Perfectionism and procrastination are two sides of the same coin. Not doing it perfectly prevents me from starting, so I’m going to start small and imperfectly, especially with decluttering. (Episode 12 and Episode 73)
13. Your loved ones want you to be happy, not burdened by their stuff. Let go of the guilt. A gift given out of love doesn’t need to be kept out of guilt. (Episode 14)
14. “Just in case” likely means never. Instead, focus on “just for when” items - seasonal, etc. and be realistic about what you actually use and need. (Episode 15)
15. The most powerful questions I can ask myself are “What can I lay down?” and “What unnecessary decisions can I remove from my life?” (Episode 19)
16. Just because I get something for free or a gift does not mean I need to keep it. I am the CEO of my home. (Episode 23)
17. I set the tone for my home and what is acceptable when it comes to clutter and tidying. (Episode 81)
18. You need a system around your stuff or else you’ll continue to feel overwhelmed. (Episode 81)
19. Clutter-free living is not a final destination. It’s a journey and process based upon small, consistent steps. (Episode 52)
20. Thinking about my family being burdened by my stuff if something happens to me may be morbid, but it’s super powerful. (Episode 65)
21. There is nothing I can buy that is going to make me feel better in the long run. Dopamine is fleeting. Peace that comes from a clutter-free home is better than any purchase. (Episode 23)
22. Being present with my kids is more important than sticking to any routine perfectly. (Episode 74)
23. I am worth more than anything I have ever paid for what I own. (Episode 8)

What is the connection between our nervous system and how we experience motherhood? How can we process and release our emotions in a healthy way and then teach that to our children? How can we proactively manage our triggers so we can feel less overwhelmed? These are just some of the questions I am diving into today with Michelle Grosser.
Michelle is a Nervous System Expert, Certified Master Life Coach, and host of The Calm Mom Podcast. Through somatic and neuroscience-based modalities, she coaches women through discovering what’s beneath their triggers and emotions, so they can begin their healing journey and find peace in the present. She deeply believes that the most profound thing we can offer our children is our own healing. She and her husband Jeff have two daughters and live in Miami, FL.
In this episode, Michelle shares simple ways we can equip ourselves to recognize nervous system dysregulation by our body’s somatic cues and combat that dysregulation in a “language” that our body understands through somatic techniques. This is such an informative and tactical conversation you don’t want to miss!

Today Danielle Thienel from the Peaceful Mind Podcast for Busy Moms is sharing three critical mindset tools that can help you overcome overwhelm - including embracing the “B minus” mom, understanding that overwhelm is a vibration in your body and how your thoughts impact your action (or inaction), and the 50/50 model.

She is a wife, mom of three, member of the Catholic Church, author, speaker and host of The Peaceful Mind Podcast for Busy Moms.

When we are stressed and overwhelmed, planning is usually the first thing to go by the wayside. But intentional planning doesn’t have to take up a ton of time, and can have incredible benefits!
In today’s conversation, I’m talking again with Sarah Horgan from Simple + Intentional about her best tips for intentional planning to combat anxiety and overwhelm.
Sarah is a full-time teacher, mom and wife who is passionate about helping women change their lives through decluttering.
After a cancer diagnosis in 2014, she discovered her perfectionism and people pleasing were holding her back and 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 never thought I was an angry person…until I became a mom.
Throughout my own journey with anger, I’ve sought out therapy (including EMDR), medication, and the support of other moms who have gone before me on this journey. I still have moments where I’m triggered by my kids, but things are much better thanks to consistent daily habits that help me with my anger and stress.
Today’s guest, Elizabeth Andreyevskiy has also walked this journey and now she is sharing her best tips for improving our stress resilience and healthy habits to support our nervous system.
Elizabeth is a stress coach for Christian moms. She is the host of Emotionally Healthy Legacy podcast and a mom of 4. Elizabeth is super passionate about mental health and emotional wellness in motherhood. She supports stressed Christian moms in overcoming anger and embracing emotional stability, empowering them to leave an emotionally healthy legacy for their children's lives.
I hope that you will be blessed by our conversation!

When our family life is chaotic, flexible systems and using the power of habits and habit stacking can help us survive - and even thrive - in the most difficult seasons of our motherhood - especially if our kids have special needs. Today I’m talking to Katie Keene, homeschooling mom of five, about her experience balancing everything by leveraging the power of simple systems.
Katie Keene is the host of the top 1% globally rated podcast Her Home and Heart, and host to a membership community of beautiful Christian homeschooling families on the journey to peace at home and generational family success despite the challenges of raising a special needs child.
Her mission is simple: to ensure that no family breaks apart simply due to lack of tools to create a SOLID, peaceful, and joyful family foundation at home.
Katie is most passionate about helping special needs families create strong bonds and deep roots.

*Trigger warning - child loss discussed on today's episode**
Casey Jones @that.minimalist.mom started her minimalist journey over seven years ago, when she realized that she wanted to spend more quality time with her family, but the excess stuff, commitments, and home management responsibilities were getting in the way of a meaningful life.
She decluttered, downsized, and embraced a minimalist lifestyle both in streamlining what she owned but also simplifying her family’s schedule and routines. On today’s episode we talk about her journey, as well as how the foundation of minimalism and simplicity impacted her navigating the loss of her son Colt and the grieving process that followed.
You can connect with Casey on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok where she teaches women to live intentionally, minimally, simply and clutter free to make room for more of what matters.

Decluttering is hard work, but is made even harder if you keep bringing stuff into your home. Mary Simpson worked 50-80 hours a week and used shopping as a reward until a health scare in early 2020 changed her mindset about stuff and using shopping as entertainment. She realized that we only get one shot at this life, and it’s not the stuff that matters. She and her family downsized and got rid of almost 75% of their belongings as they sought a simpler, more intentional life.
On today’s episode Mary is sharing her amazing story, as well as a four-step process to stop the shopping habit so that you can live more intentionally and prevent clutter before it starts!
You can connect with Mary on Instagram where she shares inspirational tips and advice to those seeking a more minimal-ish life.

The Man in the Arena speech by Theodore Roosevelt
The Mom in the Arena by Emily McDermott
It is not the critic who counts; nor the mom who berates herself for stumbling, or who looks to Instagram to see where she, the doer of all the doing, could have done it better. The credit belongs to the same mom who is actually in the arena, whose shirt is stained by spit up and Goldfish crumbs; who strives valiantly to be the mom she knows she is called to be; who yells at her kids, who comes up short again and again, who apologizes and makes it right and tries better the next day. Because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; there is no perfect mom - it is an illusion that traps us despite what we know in our heart of hearts to be true. But who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows the great enthusiasms of the laughter of a child and a moment of true connection, the great devotion we feel to the family entrusted to our care; who spends herself in the most worthy of causes; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of being imperfectly devoted to the highest calling of all, and who at the worst, when she fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that her place shall never be with the moms who let perfectionism prevent them from the victory of a life fully lived.

We know that clutter directly impacts our overwhelm and stress, as well as our physical health. As we declutter and simplify, we are seeking a more peaceful, less stressful life. But if you have a chronic illness that is impacted by stress - like my guest Ali Cornish - then it’s even more important to declutter your home, head, and heart so that you can learn to not only survive, but thrive despite the challenges of the illness.
Ali describes herself as a mother, writer and wife rooted in minimalism, wellness, and lifelong learning. Shortly after launching her website Everthrive.org, she was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis (otherwise known as AS), an incurable inflammatory disease. After suffering from long bouts of pain and intermittent immobility, Ali chose to redouble her commitment to a minimalist way of life. Through living simply, eliminating distractions, and focusing on the important aspects of life, she put her AS symptoms into remission.
Whether you have a chronic illness like Ali, or if you’re just looking for ways to reduce stress and inflammation, today’s episode is incredibly helpful and I know you’re going to learn a lot.

Today I’m very excited to bring you my conversation with Jessica Jackson from the Thriving in Motherhood Podcast all about the 3 levels of overwhelm that moms experience and how we can overcome them.
Jessica and I connected in 2018, I have been a guest on her podcast a few times and she is one of my coaches. I use her planner and am part of her Next 90 Days/Soaring Mothers Society where we talk about our vision, goals, and celebrate our wins every month! She is homeschooling mom to four children who knows what it is like to try and find peace and balance between running a business, a household, and creating a strong family culture while real life keeps happening (hard pregnancies and postpartum, sickness, cross country moves, husband has busy work seasons, etc.).
After years of struggle she realized there are simple, practical things she can do to stop living in overwhelm and find meaning and joy in everyday life. Thriving in Motherhood equips women to use their gifts and talents and build strong families no matter the circumstances of the world.

Cycle syncing can be described as adapting your lifestyle to your the different phases of your menstrual cycle. Changing levels of hormones including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone have a direct effect on our mood and energy. So if we are aware of what to expect in each of the four phases of the menstrual cycle - (menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal), we can better plan our diet, exercise, calendar, and yes, even decluttering (as well as shopping) around the shifts in our hormones.

Have you ever felt like "just" a mom? You know, when you’re trying to find your identity and purpose while you are cleaning up crumbs from the kitchen floor and pee from the toilet seat, changing out the laundry or trying to seem interested in playing on the floor with your kids...when all you want to do is take a nap or just sit in silence without anyone asking you for anything?
In today’s special episode in honor of Mother's Day, I am reminding you that you are not alone, and that you are more than the mundane parts of motherhood. I have learned 3 things in my decluttering journey that remind me of the totality of who I am - someone with a calling and a purpose. Tune into the end for a special poem I wrote called "Just" a Mom!

Does keeping a tidy home feel like an uphill battle? Today on the podcast, Lisa Lizotte from the Habits and Home Show shares the one life-changing habit that will transform your home management and keep your home clutter-free.
Lisa is a wife, mom of three and cheerleader for anyone wanting to simplify their life so that they can enjoy it more. Lisa first tried living as a minimalist but no matter how few possessions she owned, she still struggled to keep up with it all.

Stress, anxiety, and overwhelm definitely impact how we parent, and if you throw a strong-willed kiddo (or two) into the mix, then parenting becomes even more challenging.
Today’s guest is Danielle Bettmann. Danielle is a Positive-Discipline certified parenting mentor for families with strong-willed kids age 1-7 and host of the Failing Motherhood podcast. She guides parents to cultivate cooperation, extend their patience and prevent behavior proactively through a group coaching program called Wholeheartedly CALM. A teacher by trade and a coach by strengths, her passion is to be a translator between adult + child, helping parents crack the code of their child's personality and find sanity + strategies.
Today, Danielle shares her powerful story about why she ended up downsizing with her two daughters, moving to an apartment and getting rid of 75% of their belongings and, even when she moved into a larger home again, not filling it up with stuff when she recognized the benefits of living with less. We then talk about how to approach parenting with self-awareness, compassion, and without mom guilt, especially when we’re overwhelmed and dealing with strong-willed kiddos.

Instead of using the physical confines of our home as a barometer for how much we own, and filling our schedules within the confines of the 24 hours we have in a day, we need to look at our capacity, that is, what we can reasonably manage when it comes to our stuff and our time. Today I dive deep into this mindset shift, which has forever changed the way that I go about decluttering.

Glitter. Toys. Pillow forts. Paint. Childhood is messy! And when you’re trying to keep a tidy house, the mess can be unnerving. We think about how long it’s going to take to clean up, rather than fully enjoying our kids’ creativity.

Desirae is a mom of two, wife, podcast host, and former English teacher. Her passion is to share the message of minimalism and intentional living with other women, as minimalism is a movement has truly changed her life.

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.

I use the ScanSnap scanner. Mine works with Evernote but they make other models as well.

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.

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!

If you are an overwhelmed mama, most likely LAUNDRY is contributing to that. If you loathe it and piles of clothes are everywhere, and you have to start that same load (again) because you forgot about it and it’s 6 hours later…well my friend, this episode is for you. My 20-minute laundry system will help you stay on top of laundry (rather than being buried in piles) once and for all!

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.

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! Between February 16, 2023 when this episode airs and February 20th at midnight Eastern time (EST), If you leave a rating and written review in Apple Podcasts, take a screen shot of it before you submit it and send it to me at @simplebyemmy either on Instagram or Facebook, you will be entered in a drawing for a free one-hour coaching session with me, valued at $47.

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.

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?”
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.

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”. As an overwhelmed mom, we don’t want to spend a lot of time and energy on getting dressed, and oftentimes we leave our closets feeling frazzled and depressed.
Today I’m going to share my five best tips for curating your closet and saying goodbye to the chaos. Getting dressed is something we all need to do, but it does not need to drain your energy!

Did you know that every day we supposedly make 35,000 decisions (although my guess is that it’s higher for moms)? 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! In today’s episode I’m going to talk about the three reasons why unnecessary decisions are stealing your energy and what we can do about it.

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.

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.

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
