****************
Does your home feel chaotic and overwhelming? Does your brain feel the same? You’re not imagining it.
In this episode, Deanna Yates explores how physical clutter contributes to mental overload, stress, and burnout, especially for high-achieving, modern moms who feel like they “should” be able to handle it all.
This episode is part of the Find Your Number series within the Clutter F.R.E.E.D.O.M. Method, and today’s focus is your Inner World (Mental Health). You’ll discover how clutter impacts your cortisol levels, creates guilt and shame cycles, and weighs down your emotional bandwidth.
But most importantly, Deanna offers actionable, compassionate strategies to help you:
Understand the hidden toll of mental clutter
Break free from the “should” cycle of perfectionism
Reduce overwhelm with simple, doable steps
Shift your environment to support your peace of mind
Reframe decluttering as self-care, not punishment
If you’ve been feeling scattered, foggy, or stretched too thin, this episode will help you clear the noise (both around you and within you).
