While there are many systems for decluttering and experts advising you on how to approach clutter, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. The key to finding the approach that is best for you is creating your own framework, which is one of the things I help clients do as a coach. I use a 6-step system with the acronym SIMPLE to help declutter your space and do so in a way that will last. This week, episode 246 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about a SIMPLE™ way to reduce clutter and stress!

In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I share how my SIMPLE™ system helps you to approach clutter in a way that aligns with your unique needs and goals. I also walk you through the steps to apply this framework to tackle clutter in a sustainable way.

I cover the following topics:

• Examples of how I have helped clients tackle their clutter and lift the mental and emotional weight tied to it.
• Breaking down the acronym SIMPLE: Set, Identify, Match, Pare, Limit, and Evaluate, using the example of decluttering a kitchen to visualize the process.
• How you can use this framework to declutter any space in your life, doing it in a way that lasts.

Using the SIMPLE™ framework, you can take control of the clutter in your life and create spaces that truly support how you want to live. What space in your life are you going to declutter first? I’d love for you to message me and let me know!

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by a packed calendar and even more overwhelmed by trying to add more things to that calendar, incorporating themes into your schedule might just be the solution you need. Themes–though most known for novels and fun parties–play an important part in how we naturally categorize our lives. By assigning overarching themes to your schedule, you can create a simplified approach that's flexible yet focused. This week, episode 245 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about themes: the simple time management trick you need!

In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I share how themes can transform your approach to time management and I offer you actionable steps to use this strategy to achieve your goals with greater ease.

I cover the following topics:

• Why traditional scheduling doesn’t work for everyone, especially for neurodiverse.
• The benefits of using themes to manage your time.
• Five steps to create themes around your schedule.

If you’re ready to give themed time management a try, I encourage you to take the first step. Start with a daily theme, keep it simple, and see how it goes.

We've talked about physical and mental clutter many times on the podcast, but digital clutter is in its own category. It’s one of the more insidious types of clutter because you can't see or feel it. It hides really well and is one of the easiest to collect and forget about. This week, episode 244 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about how to clear out digital clutter!

In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I share how digital clutter, an often overlooked element of the clutter we accumulate, causes stress and delays, and I offer you practical strategies to declutter and regain control of your digital space.

I cover the following topics:

• How digital clutter differs from other forms of clutter.
• The most common types of digital clutter and where it piles up the most.
• Practical steps to clear out your digital clutter and maintain it over time.

Digital clutter isn’t just visually distracting and stressful; it can literally drain you and your devices. That's adding insult to injury in a world that’s draining enough.
