    Swedish Death Cleaning with Emily McDermott

    Did you know that Swedish death cleaning can lighten your home now and make things easier for your loved ones later? In today’s episode, we’re talking about Swedish death cleaning, a Swedish cultural practice and a practical way to declutter with a bigger purpose in mind. It’s about reducing what you own so your home feels lighter today, and so your family isn’t left with the emotional and logistical burden of sorting through everything later. To explore it, Kelly is joined by decluttering coach and organizing expert Emily McDermott, host of the Moms Overcoming Overwhelm podcast. Emily helps people reduce overwhelm through simple organizing systems, and she’s practiced Swedish death cleaning firsthand. Emily shares how she did her own Swedish death cleaning at age 39, why she started, what it looked like, and how it still shapes the way she lives. If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t want my home to feel like a constant to do list,” or “I don’t want to leave my family a mess to deal with one day,” this episode is for you. Be inspired to simplify in a way that feels meaningful and freeing now and deeply considerate of the people you love.

    Minimalism with Kids (and Beyond) with Diane Boden

    What if you could feel less overwhelmed at home and in your mind... whether you have kids or you’re child free? In this episode, you’ll take away practical tips either way. If you have kids, you’ll learn how to manage the constant influx of stuff, get kids involved in decluttering and organizing, and decide what “enough” looks like when it comes to schedules and hobbies. And if you don’t have kids, you’ll still learn simple ways to cut distractions, feel more in control, and create more calm in everyday life. For a second time, Kelly sits down with minimalist thought leader, author, and the creator and host of the Minimalist Moms Podcast, Diane Boden. Diane is a minimalist and mom of three on a mission to help people simplify, feel less overwhelmed, and live more intentionally. Together, Kelly and Diane talk about keeping minimalism realistic, including managing clutter, the mental load of parenting, and why even small moments of peace and self care can make a big difference. Be inspired to explore how minimalism can work for families, reduce stress at home and in your mind, and create more space for what matters most.

    The Year You Transform with Light Watkins

    What if the way you actually transform your life in 2026 isn't by going all-in, but by taking one small, doable challenge at a time? In this episode, Kelly is joined for the second time by five-time bestselling author, podcaster, and renowned meditation teacher Light Watkins, for a conversation that's the perfect listen to kick off the year with clarity and momentum. Light has spoken and consulted at Fortune 500 companies around the world on mindfulness, purpose, and the power of presence. Together, Kelly and Light dive into insights from his new book, The Year You Transform, and how listeners can use it as a practical guide to create real change in 2026 and beyond. This episode explores what you might want to shift in your life, whether that's letting go of a habit, adopting a new one, or making a bigger lifestyle change, and how Light's Tortoise Approach makes transformation feel attainable. Instead of relying on willpower or waiting for a crisis, Light encourages listeners to take on short, 7-day personal growth challenges that build momentum slowly, steadily, and realistically. As you listen, you'll be encouraged to reflect on what you want to change and start creating your own 7-day challenges. Light also shares 10 suggested challenges, including a purge challenge and a 7-day no-complaining challenge. If you're craving a reset that feels grounded, doable, and motivating, this episode will inspire you to take the tortoise approach to transformation and start changing, one week at a time.
