  • Doing more won’t solve your problems (here’s what to focus on instead)
    Feb 22 2025

    Ever feel like no matter how much you do, it’s never enough? Like you’re constantly adding more—more bins, more systems, more tasks—just to keep up? What if the real answer isn’t doing more... but letting go?


    This episode is your permission slip to stop carrying what’s not yours to hold.


    In this short, 10-min. episode we're talking about:

    • Why letting go feels so hard (and why that’s not your fault)
    • The sneaky ways we try to “fix” overwhelm by adding more—and why it backfires
    • How to start subtracting the things that are weighing you down—without the guilt
    • A simple way to know what’s actually worth your time, energy, and space
    • And if you’re ready for more support with this, I’ve got something for you…


    I’m speaking at the Simple Home Reimagined Summit, happening March 1-3, and it’s completely free. If this episode hits home, the summit is where we take it deeper—so you can create a home that actually supports you (without more rules, pressure, or unrealistic expectations).
