The Sneaky Habit Making Your Life Harder (And How to Fix It)

In This Episode Learn How One Tiny Habit Can Help You Reduce Overwhelm Every Day!

Reduce Overwhelm with This 3-Second Rule That Actually Works

We’ve all been there—walking through the house, noticing little piles everywhere. The shoes by the door, the mail on the counter, the jacket tossed on a chair. And then, at the end of the day, you’re left wondering why everything feels so overwhelming.

The truth? Most of the chaos in our homes isn’t from big messes—it’s from tiny, daily decisions to “deal with it later.” Every time we set something down instead of putting it away, we’re creating extra steps for our future selves. And those steps? They pile up into stress, overwhelm, and exhaustion.

But what if we could break that cycle? What if we could stop adding more work to our lives and instead make things easier? What if ONE TINY HABIT can help you reduce overwhelm every day?

In This Episode, I Discuss:

✅ The psychology behind why clutter increases stress and decision fatigue
✅ How small delays lead to big messes (and extra work) later
✅ The three-second rule that stops clutter before it starts
✅ Why this habit shift is especially helpful for ADHD brains and busy moms
✅ Actionable steps to make “Don’t put it down, put it away” a daily habit

And So Much More!

Whether you’re feeling buried by mess or just want a simple way to make life easier, this episode is for you. The truth is, we can create a home and life that feels lighter—one tiny habit at a time.
