I saw a statistice that said we actually only wear about 10% of our wardrobes, at first when I heard this I thought there's no way that's true, but ask yourself how many times have you stood in your closet full of clothes and thought "I have nothing to wear".
So, if you're ready to clean out your closet, then this episode is for you! In today's episode I go over 4 methods you can use to pair down your wardrobe:
Backwards Hangers- if you're short on time and energy this method is for you, on January 1 turn all your hangers backwards. Then throughout the year as you wear things hang them back up normally, at the end of the year all the backwards hangers have to go Bye Bye Bin- Keep a box or bin in your closet and every time you wear something that is uncomfortable in anyway throw it in the box. At the end of the year wash everything in the box and take it to a donation bin Big Purge- Try on absolutely everything in your closet to make sure it fits and even go a step further with it and figure out how you're going to style it, create an outfit and make sure that it matches the aesthetic you're going for. Also make it fun with music Let Go of Placeholders- Stop buying different versions of the same thing that just aren't quite right and hold out for that holy grail item. Once you find it go crazy and buy it in every color but until then don't waste money on things you won't wear One In One Out- This isn't a closet clean out method so much as a closet maintenence method, but it is a good rule to implement once you've done your initial declutterEvery single item in your closet should fit the body you have now, be comfortable, and suit your style. Can you say that about your closet? If not, it's time to declutter until everything in your closet is an option. No more saying, I have nothing to wear.

I have spent the entire weeking packing up my house, getting ready to move halfway across the country. However, I am going to be downsizing a lot with thise move so I am having to do a huge purge of all of my stuff and if I'm being honest it feels SO GOOD!
While it can be difficult to let go of some things and make decisions to get rid of our possessions it is incredibly freeing to not have to manage so many things. Our homes should be where we go to feel safe, comfortable and at peace. However, I think so often our homes actually cause us anxiety because we're constantly battling with having to keep up with clutter or even avoiding areas of our home we find overwhelming.
It's time we start choosing peace over possessions, so if you're ready to declutter your home but need some help on getting started, then this episode is for you!

It's not something you can explain, it's not logical or rational always but it's there. It's that feeling of just knowing even though you can't explain why.
If you've been wanting to get more in tune with your intuition, lean to hear that still small voice, get in touch with that gut feeling, and learn to trust yourself then this episode is for you!

I'm going ghost mode! I have decided that I want to disappear for a while so that I can focus on my goals, work on establish habits that benefit my well-being, uplevel my life, and come out the other side a better version of myself. If you're wanting to go ghost mode to focus on yourself too, then this episode is for you!
If you're not familiar with the term, ghost mode, it is essentially having a set period of time that you are going to set things aside that don't currently ressonate with your goals, eliminate distractions and get laser focused on your goals, and take breaks from commitments or relationships so that you can put all your time, energy and effort into yourself.
It's a great way to work on your discipline, make larger strides to your goal, get realigned with your priorities and practice mindfulness and self care. I hope you will join me on this journey!

You may have noticed I have taken a few weeks off, I have been grieving the loss of my dog Wrigley. I initially wanted to take time off until I felt like I could come back and be my usual self, but that felt really inauthentic. This podcast has always been about me sharing with you my journey, process and experiences and I don't want to pretend that this time of grief isn't happening because it's a part of my story.
If you also find yourself grieving; whether it's the loss of a pet, a loved one, a relationship, a friendship, a job or anything else, then I hope this episode brings you some comfort. Unfortunately, no one in this life escapes grief, I just hope that I can make you feel less alone.

The weather here is heating up and it inspired me to share some of my hot takes. Feel free to agree or disagree and make sure to head over to my socials to let me know what you think.
In today's episode I discuss:
We need to celebrate people for more than finding love and having babies, if you want to be celebrated for a life event don't be afraid to celebrate yourself the way you wish others did You don't have to be a morning person, waking up at the crack of dawn is overrated Everyone can benefit from therapy Being 'chugy' or 'cring' isn't a bad thing Social media has made people boring, scrolling isn't a hobby Dating apps have ruined dating but it is almost impossible to meet someone out in the real world Self-harm jokes are not funny, it's not dark humor- it's concerningIn this episode I discuss these and more, not necessarily to justify my thoughts or convince you one way or another just wanted to air some grievences.
