It wasn’t the piles of paper.
Or the random charging cables.
Or the stray sock and candy wrapper under the coffee table.
It was the feeling. That slow, creeping weight in my chest when I tried to relax—
and couldn’t.
Because even though my life looks ordered on the outside, inside, it sometimes feels stuffed and chaotic.
It’s like I’m visibly organized but privately overwhelmed.
That’s when it hit me: Clear your space, clear your mind.
I didn’t need a home makeover. I needed motion. One desk, one shelf at a time and suddenly, I could breathe again.
If your brain is buzzing, if your to-do list is spilling onto every flat surface, if you’re managing it all but still feel unsettled, this episode is for you.
I’ll include declutter strategies for busy doctor moms and how a cluttered space might be saying more than you realize.
