    Show notes

    How much do you actually play with your kids versus how much you actually WANT to play with them?

    As moms we want to be there for our kids. We want to make memories with them. We want to have fun with them.

    But the clutter in our home makes it so that you just can't because you are so distracted and overwhelmed by everything else that you can or should be doing.

    IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT
    ... what it was like for me pre-decluttering when I tried to play with my kids

    ... how playing got REALLY easy and fun after we decluttered

    ... how your kids care less about the toys you give them to play with and more about how you actually play with them

    EP78 - Simplified books - a kid's perspective Aug 10, 2019
    Show notes

    Are you a book hoarder? Aren't all moms? More books means smarter kids and better readers, right?

    Today I share with you why I actually DON'T believe that any more based on the experience of less books in my home and in my classrooms when I was a teacher.

    And just for added measure I let me ten year old - who reads more than anyone I know - so much that I had to implement a no phones at the table rule for everyone, and a no books at the dinner table rule because she was missing all the conversation! She shares her favorites, her classics and is a living example of how too much of a good thing, even books, is never a good thing.

    IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT
    ... what happened when I ditched our 6X6 foot closet of book storage

    ... why I think that less options is better for books

    ... how to give great book experiences for kids of all ages and include variety

    Show notes

    After watching over 5,000 moms declutter their homes and decluttering my own home I can confidently say there is ONE commonality behind all the clutter we have and that is.... Our insastiable desire for variety and having ONE thing for every ONE specific need.

    Today I help you realize why you really don't need as much variety as you think, how it is cluttering up your home, and draining your wallet. And of course what to do about it!

    IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT

    ... how variety is the cause of a ton of your clutter

    ... why you really don't need so much variety

    ... the idea that your stuff should make life easier, and having one item for every little thing makes your life way harder because you're managing all of that clutter

    ... every day examples of variety clutter you DON'T really need

    EP70 Your clutter isn't that special Jul 29, 2019
    Show notes

    The clutter you're clinging to, or trying to sell for way more than it's worth, and tricking yourself into thinking REALLY is valuable for that just in case moment... is the exact same stuff as Susy's down the street and Barbara's on FB marketplace. No one wants it. Not even you.

    We all have our own clutter - and our clutter is the only clutter that is ACTUALLY useful for just in case, what if, saving money, and indicative of our kind heart because we kept everything that was every given to us...

    But what if I told you that ALL of your stuff - is the exact same stuff that everyone else has. And all of those reasons are the exact same as everyone else's. And that no one's clutter is really that special and NOT every going to meet those imaginary scenarios that everyone has in their head?

    Would you be brave enough to this episode and dare to shift your mindset about your clutter and see it for what it really is? An overabundance of stuff designed to steal your time, energy and in essence, your life.

    IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT
    ... the endowment effect and how it makes us think that our clutter is WAY more valuable and special because it's in our possession

    ... What you're keeping and why - spoiler alert after hundreds of responses from moms like you, everyone had the SAME ten answers. Your clutter isn't that special

    ... How to shift your perspective on your stuff and see it for what it really is, which is nothing great if we're being honest

    Toy Story 4 Analysis Jul 23, 2019
    Show notes

    Welcome to today's episode where we’re diving into the Toy Story 4 Analysis—but with a twist. We're talking about the important lessons from the movie without spoiling anything! If you’re like me, maybe you went into Toy Story 4 without remembering much about the first three movies (oops!). But, as I sat down to watch it, something clicked, and I knew I had to share the life lessons it brought up—especially about toys, letting go, and yes, decluttering!

    Now that we've dived deep into the Story Behind Toy Story 4 and learned some surprising lessons about toys, it's time to talk about how to put those lessons into action. The truth is, Toy Story 4 gave us a heartfelt reminder about the importance of letting go, and that resonates with so many of us who are overwhelmed by too much stuff, especially toys. But I know, as a mom, decluttering can feel overwhelming. It’s hard to know where to start, what to let go of, and how to keep things from spiraling back into chaos.

    That’s where Decluttering Simplified comes in.

    Krista, the creator of Motherhood Simplified and host of the podcast, designed this course specifically for moms just like you. It’s not about decluttering in one mad rush or creating Pinterest-perfect spaces. It’s about practical, realistic steps you can take to simplify your home so you can finally breathe easier.

    Here’s How Decluttering Simplified Can Help You:

    1. Start Small, Stay Consistent:

    2. Much like the lessons we learned from Toy Story 4 about focusing on the favorite toys and letting go of the ones that are just sitting there collecting dust, Decluttering Simplified teaches you how to start with small, manageable tasks. Whether it’s tackling a toy bin, a closet, or your kitchen, Krista helps you break down the process into bite-sized pieces that fit into your busy mom life. You don’t need hours of uninterrupted time—Krista knows that’s unrealistic for most moms. You just need the right strategy to make real progress.
    3. Letting Go of Guilt: Just like the toys in Toy Story want to move on and be played with by someone new, Decluttering Simplified encourages you to let go of the guilt that often comes with getting rid of things. Krista emphasizes the importance of understanding that decluttering isn’t just about stuff; it’s about creating a home that works for your family. If something isn’t serving you or your kids, it’s time to move it on to someone who can use it.
    4. Focus on the Favorites: As we saw in Toy Story 4, your kids have their core group of favorite toys. Krista’s course helps you identify those key items and create a system that allows your kids to truly enjoy their favorites without being overwhelmed by excess. Decluttering Simplified gives you the tools to assess what’s truly important and let go of the rest, so your home isn’t weighed down by things that aren’t meaningful.
    5. A Long-Term Solution: One of the best parts about Decluttering Simplified is that it’s not just about getting your home decluttered once; it’s about keeping it that way. Krista teaches you how to maintain a simplified home so that the clutter doesn’t creep back in. You’ll learn how to shift your mindset around consumption and clutter, making your home a peaceful place where you can focus on what truly matters: your family.
    6. Support for Every Stage of Mom Life: Whether you have toddlers or teens, Decluttering Simplified is designed with the realities of motherhood in mind. Krista herself is a mom of five, and she knows that different seasons of motherhood bring different challenges. The course meets you where you are—whether you’re overwhelmed by toys, clothes, or just general household stuff.

    How Decluttering Simplified Relates to Toy Story 4

    Think of the Toy Story 4 lessons we’ve explored:

    • The toys hidden away in the back of the closet? That’s the clutter sitting in your home, forgotten and unused.
    • The idea that toys want to move on to a new family? That’s your cue to let go of the things that no longer serve your family and pass them on to someone else.
    • The importance of favorite toys? That’s what Krista will help you focus on—keeping only what’s truly loved and needed.

    By enrolling in Decluttering Simplified, you’re not just learning how to tidy up. You’re learning how to create a home that works for you, one that is peaceful, functional, and clutter-free. Just like in Toy Story 4, where the toys thrive when they’re loved and played with, your home will thrive when it's free of the excess, and only filled with what truly matters.

    Ready to Start Your Own Decluttering Journey?

    If the lessons from Toy Story 4 resonated with you, and you're ready to move from overwhelmed to organized, then it's time to join Decluttering Simplified. Krista’s program will guide you step by step, giving you the support, encouragement, and practical tools you need to create a home that feels light and manageable.

    Imagine a home where toys are loved, not lost. A home where you can breathe easier, focus on your family, and spend less time managing stuff.

    That’s what Decluttering Simplified can do for you. Click here


    EP65 Clutter Chronicles - Coming Clean with Shamra Jul 22, 2019
    Show notes

    Shamra joined Motherhood Simplified back when her conditions were less than ideal and what she describes as her lowest point in her motherhood. She didn't know what exactly she was looking for, and she didn't know how she was going to do it - with a newborn with some health issues, and a toddler but she took forward steps as much as possible whenever she could.

    She is cute as a button, true to herself and works diligently every day to make her home, and life move closer and closer to what she wants it to be every single day.
    Join the Motherhood Simplified group on Facebook to search for her progress pictures and join our sister group MSTV Cribz to follow along with her journey!

    IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT
    ....How Shamra got started with a 3 month old with sever reflux, a toddler, and what she describes as feelings of depression, isolation and at her lowest point just prayed for a solution

    ...How she has shifted her mindset in powerful ways to help her declutter, learning that she really can't organize her clutter

    ... How she used to identify as an introvert and let herself become disconnected and isolated because her home was SO overwhelming and now that she has cleared out time and energy for the things that matter to her, has learned that she is actually extroverted and is loving the time and energy to give herself what she needs for social interactions
