Summary

Where are you on your tolerance scale of clutter? Do you believe everyone has a junk drawer, or no one should have one? Do you dream of a house that looks like it fell out of the pages of Conde Nast? Do you dread having people drop by because you have some shame about the state of your physical environment? Living in an environment where clutter and a lack of organization are in control is common for many women.  It is even more common following pandemic life. In this episode, we are tackling physical clutter and looking at how it indicates clutter in your mind.  I hope to prove how bringing your external environment into order allows you to address inner obstacles that are in your way Clutter and chaos in our physical spaces indicate we may be wearing blinders to what the clutter is covering.  Disorder and chaos in your environments could leave you with an inability to see the truth of what is going on because you are focused on the clutter.  It is wrong to live with blinders on because it prevents you from addressing the real issues undermining your life. Many of the women I have worked with have had some type of physical clutter in their environments. Without fail a tsunami of awareness floods in when we begin to address the environmental roadblock. Before they even are aware, they see the stuff was simply covering up a heart issue they weren’t dealing with. The stuff became a physical representation of the internal struggles. But when addressed and given space to gain awareness, the issue they had been avoiding was so much smaller than they made it within their false narrative. I come from a long line of pilers.  As a young person, I was so messy. There was no order to my space.

Episode Description

Where are you on your tolerance scale of clutter?

Do you believe everyone has a junk drawer, or no one should have one?

Do you dream of a house that looks like it fell out of the pages of Conde Nast?

Do you dread having people drop by because you have some shame about the state of your physical environment?

Living in an environment where clutter and a lack of organization are in control is common for many women. It is even more common following pandemic life.

In this episode, we are tackling physical clutter and looking at how it indicates clutter in your mind. I hope to prove how bringing your external environment into order allows you to address inner obstacles that are in your way

Clutter and chaos in our physical spaces indicate we may be wearing blinders to what the clutter is covering. Disorder and chaos in your environments could leave you with an inability to see the truth of what is going on because you are focused on the clutter. It is wrong to live with blinders on because it prevents you from addressing the real issues undermining your life.

Many of the women I have worked with have had some type of physical clutter in their environments. Without fail a tsunami of awareness floods in when we begin to address the environmental roadblock. Before they even are aware, they see the stuff was simply covering up a heart issue they weren’t dealing with. The stuff became a physical representation of the internal struggles. But when addressed and given space to gain awareness, the issue they had been avoiding was so much smaller than they made it within their false narrative.

I come from a long line of pilers. As a young person, I was so messy. There was no order to my space. Occasionally I would go on a rampage and hyper-organize all the things. Naturally, this wasn’t sustainable because the clutter in my physical space was simply a representation of my inner chaos. If I can learn to break this pattern by addressing the root of the chaos, you can do the same by following the same steps. Today I will walk you through the process I use with clients.

If you will trust yourself to be strong enough to tackle areas in need of healing, you will learn a new way of being that tastes like freedom and feels like home. You will create:

A physical environment that brings peace and invites growth
A mental awareness of areas needing attention
A new-found courage to spot old roots and pull them out
A path toward your wholeness

Let me help you see places that, if given your attention, will greatly improve your life. You can do this one step at a time. And we can do it together.
