Welcome back to the show my Friend!
We have to talk about seasons a little bit. No, I don't mean seasons that bring dumps of fluffy white snow, or seasons of warm air and hot sun warming our faces.
Seasons of unsettledness, overwhelm, more on our plates <-- those types of seasons
I myself am ALSO in one of these seasons right now....which is partly why this episode is a day late dropping into your podcast players 😉
Are you in a place of chaos, stress, overwhelm and feeling unsettled right now?
Whether the external stressors you are facing right now are coming from work, personal life, relationships, money, the world....SO many different circumstances can threaten to throw us off track and derail us from our big picture goals, priorities and dreams.
In this episode today, we will talk about...WHAT do we need to do in difficult seasons to ensure we don't get off track?
The answer --> setting our BIGGEST priorities that align with our big picture goals, dreams, hopes....
I encourage you,
- take some notes
- identify your top 2-3 biggest priority 'categories' in your life right now
- tackle one small task in each of these categories each day
Don't loose hope, difficult seasons always pass eventually. How we persevere and stay strong is what matters 💪🏻

Welcome back to the show my Friend!
In last week's episode I gave you a permisison slip to START SMALL when it comes to getting organized, and tackling all those little organizing projects around your home or in your life.
Building on that...I don't want you running straight to the dollar store with credit card out throwing any cheap organizing product you can find into your cart.
We need to answer the question, are dollar store products worth it?
If we are starting SMALL when it comes to getting organized, then isn't the dollar store an acceptable place to shop for some of the tools you may need to organize your closet, cupboard, bedroom etc?
In this episode today, we will talk about...I want to give you 3 SIMPLE TIPS to keep in mind when you are out shopping at the dollar store....or ANY place where you can find organizing products for 'less' to help you determine
Is this worth it?Am I actually paying more than I mean too for this?Is the quality going to stand up?Is it wiser to invest in something else that is sized better for my space?We don't want to fall into the trap of thinking that organizing products have to cost a bunch of money...no. I am not here for that. BUT we DO have to be careful and strategic about what we are buying and where from.
So keep these little tips in your back pocket next time you head out.
Happy organizing friends, and all the best!
