Joining me today is the wonderful and warm Shannon Leyko of The Paring Down Podcast and @paringdownpodcast on Instagram!
We cover a lot of ground- from clutter, clothing and identity to one of the best doing laundry with kids tips I've ever heard!
We discussed our experiences with decluttering and the positive impact it has had on our lives. The struggles with letting go of clothes that no longer fit current lifestyles or body size, and the emotional attachment to clothes from different seasons of life. Shannon also shared her personal experiences with depression, and how decluttering helped her cope during a very difficult season. We also chatted about the importance of maintaining a simplified and organized home environment as a form of self-care, and the potential fun and enjoyment that can come from decluttering and organizing.
Such a great conversation with so many good takeaways!

If you run late and you feel consistently bad about yourself for it, this is the episode for you. Whether if you have ADHD or not, it can be a REAL challenge to be on time, which- let's face it- is an issue in our society where punctuality is highly prized.
Being on time is important, absolutely, but here are two ways to navigate it with less stress on yourself (and others). After I shared my stressful running late story yesterday on Instagram I had so many messages resonating with this so I thought- why not talk about it more??
All of you trying your hardest to be on time and feeling shame around it, and dealing with all the disappointed looks- sending you a hug. Let's walk through this together!! xo, E

We've been told a messy house contributes to feelings of overwhelm and stress, but have we also been told we're still a good person even when our home is messy? And that it's UNDERSTANDABLE when our home is messy?
Well I'm here today to tell you you are a good person, and it IS understandable. Saying home mess causes overwhelm is only half the story- the other half is the validation that it's ok it happened and there's nothing wrong with you that it happened- and from THAT place we get the home clean. Not before. That's kind organzing and kind cleaning- not 'should' or shame based cleaning.
In this episode I discuss two options- either (2) embracing the messy season or (b) cleaning up but from a place of kindness for self.
Let me know your thoughts, and please be kind to yourself and care your home from a place of understanding and validation- you're doing your best.

I've been thinking about home organization, clutter, cleaning and mental health lately. There's this idea that if things aren't done one is being "lazy" or just needs to work harder, build better habits, etc. But if you have ADHD it isn't that simple. My goal with this episode is to offer some understanding of how ADHD plays out in caring for our homes, and some of the challenges there- both so we can better understand ourselves, and eachother.
