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. *** I help moms declutter their homes, heads, and hearts.

    197 // Simple Ways to Elevate Your Home's Look (Without Another HomeGoods Trip) - with Dani Watson from fig + farm at home
    Jun 26 2025
    Have you ever wanted to style your home and you went to HomeGoods or Target without a plan, only to buy a bunch of stuff that ends up becoming clutter? It is possible to elevate your home’s look WITHOUT trips to the store or wasting money on things that don’t align with your true style and home aesthetic. Today I’m talking to return guest Dani Watson - wife, boy mom and former first grade teacher turned home decorator and host of the fig + farm at home podcast. Dani is on a mission to teach REAL moms with REAL budgets how to break free from the Pinterest perfect trap in order to create homes that they delight in...all on a budget. We talk about the importance of understanding the foundation of your style and color palette BEFORE you ever use your credit card and why this is so critical to creating a home you love. She also takes us step-by-step through the process of styling a bookshelf, something I never knew I needed!
