Ep. 209: Clutter Help: The Most Common Reason Women Are Stuck in Their Clutter
About this episode
This is Episode 2 in our three-part clutter series.
If you haven't listened to Episode 1 yet—where we walked through all 10 clutter languages—go back and start there. Because today we're going deep on one specific language. And it's going to make a lot more sense if you've got the foundation.
It’s the episode right before this one - and they all start with Clutter Help
But if you're already caught up? Let's go.
If I had to pick one clutter language I see over and over again in women—especially in midlife, it's this one.
Sentimental Saver.
And it has nothing to do with being messy or lazy.
It has everything to do with grief. Transitions. Identity shifts. And emotions you've never fully processed.
This isn't about stuff. It's about seasons. It's about who you were, who you are, and who you're becoming.
And no checklist can solve that.
So today, we're not talking about bins or labels or organizing hacks.
We're talking about the story your clutter is holding. And how to honor it without drowning in it.
So, let’s dive in!
