Clutter is so much more than the physical stuff surrounding you. As Peter Walsh says, it’s anything that gets between you and the life you want to live. Clutter threads itself through every aspect of your life, impacting mental well-being, productivity, and overall quality of life. But luckily for us, decluttering even in the smallest amounts has a profound, almost instantaneous impact on our lives. This week, episode 220 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about how decluttering helps you stress less and focus better!


In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I explain how clutter holds us back, impacting every area of our lives, and give you actionable steps to remove the clutter and reclaim your peace and productivity. 


I cover the following topics:

  • How clutter, in all forms, impacts our overall well-being and the significant benefits we experience as we remove it.
  • The 4 main types of clutter (physical, mental, emotional, and digital) and the subcategories within each.
  • Decision fatigue and how it causes clutter and how your clutter triggers it, activating stress hormones and cognitive overload.
  • 3 simple tips to keep in mind when starting a decluttering project. 


Remember, decluttering is not just about getting rid of stuff. It’s about creating space for what truly matters in your life, reducing stress, improving focus, and enhancing your overall well-being.
