No wonder you just feel overwhelmed and behind all of the time. If we think about that, think about every single thing in your house. Those seconds add up into more and more time to where even something as simple as your toaster is requiring a chunk of time from you every year. Something as menial and necessary as your toaster, even that requires at least a few seconds of your time every day, a couple of minutes every week. It just gets dirty and it needs something from you. You have to wipe it down when it gets smudged with fingerprints. You have to pick it up and wipe underneath it when you are detailing your counters. Your toaster, or toaster oven, requires some amount of your time. This is repetitive for those of you who have hung out with me for a while, but I always use the example of the toaster. Everything in your house requires some kind of maintenance or pick up from you. Outside of that, when you have a cluttered home, what takes up your space takes up your time. Even if it is out-of-sight, out-of-mind – it’s not. ![]() I feel like if we all just stopped for a second, paused this episode, and googled some of these scientific studies that have been done in the last couple of years, we would be really blown away with the fact that this matters. One specific study even linked having too much clutter, feeling like you have a cluttered house, with being unhappy in your family in general for women. ![]() That is all having an effect on your brain, emotions and on the way you feel. Because there is just so much stuff to be pulled out. Even if you feel like your home is really high maintenance, and you are always picking up while your family is making messes behind you. Even if there are areas of hidden clutter and you know that it’s there. Even if your home looks beautiful and looks clean. Specifically, for women there are a lot of negative effects of having clutter. I talk a lot about the different studies that have been done showing the effects of clutter on our brains. I love helping women do this in their homes because it matters so much more than most people even realize. Speaking to each one of those areas and helping you handle it better.ĭecluttering, as most of you probably know, is my main jam. The top 5 areas that I get asked about a lot that I see people getting held up on a lot. Hey friends! Welcome to Episode 19 of The Purpose Show! In this episode, I am going to be talking to you about a few different areas that can be really hard to take on when you are working on decluttering your house. I’m Allie Casazza and this is the The Purpose Show. Join me in conversations about simplicity, minimalism and lots of other good stuff that leads to a life of less for the sake of enjoying more in your motherhood. I believe in John 10:10 “that we are called to abundant life” and i know mothers are not excluded from that promise. I want you to stop cleaning up after your kid’s childhood and start being present for it. ![]() I’m on a mission to help you stop counting down the minutes till bedtime, at least most days.
