    Episode 182: Flow This Fall – Wrapping Up October

    Why October Feels Like the Clutter Magnet of the Year (and How to Break Free)  Ever feel like October sneaks up on you and suddenly everything feels too much? The bins of decorations, the endless to-do list, the pressure to make it all perfect — it’s no wonder October is one of the heaviest months of the year.  In this episode, I’m closing out our Flow This Fall series with a big reflection on why October always feels like a clutter magnet — and how you can finally take the weight off your shoulders.  I’ll walk you through:  The 3 types of clutter that collide in October (physical, mental, and emotional) and how they show up in your life. Real client stories that will make you say, “That’s me!” (like the mom who skipped Halloween and said it was the calmest October she ever had). How to use my Fresh Start Method® to close out October strong — with practical, everyday examples you can try this week. The key takeaways from each of this month’s episodes — so you can carry the best of October forward. Because here’s the truth: clutter doesn’t just take up space in your home. It takes up space in your head and in your heart. And October is when it all comes crashing together.  But you can clear space for peace and joy — and it starts with small, steady steps.  ➡️ [Download your October Challenge Calendar here]  Support the show Connect with Diana: Business email: Diana@dsdeclutrr.com Our Instagram: @dsdeclutrr Our Facebook: @dsdeclutrr Our Websites: dsdeclutrr.com

    Episode 181 – Flow This Fall: Clearing Mental Clutter Before the Holidays

    If your closets are organized but your brain feels like the junk drawer, this episode is for you.  October is here — which means pumpkins, costumes, candy corn, and… mental clutter. Before the holiday rush even begins, most of us are already overwhelmed by the to-dos swirling in our heads. From buying candy for trick-or-treaters to planning holiday travel, our minds can feel just as cluttered as our countertops.  The American Psychological Association reports that 70% of adults feel stressed about the holidays before they even begin. Add in the fact that we make 35,000 decisions a day, and it’s no wonder we’re exhausted before dinner.  But here’s the good news: you don’t have to carry it all. Clearing mental clutter is possible, and today I’m walking you through how to do it — Fresh Start Method® style.  In this episode, you’ll learn:  Why “decision fatigue” is real and how to recognize it. The surprising number of pounds of candy corn made every year (hint: it’s in the millions!). Relatable client stories about late-night worry spirals and brain overload. What other voices — from Gretchen Rubin to The Minimalists to Martha Stewart — say about order, clutter, and peace of mind. My 5-step Fresh Start approach to clearing mental clutter before the holidays: brain dump, sort and prioritize, create non-negotiables, let go of perfection, and build small systems that stick. Powerful quotes and questions to help you stop chasing “perfect” and start choosing peace. By the end of this episode, you’ll not only have permission to let go of what doesn’t serve you — you’ll also have practical steps to clear your head and actually enjoy the season ahead.  ✨ Don’t forget: The October Challenge Calendar is still available! It’s a free download packed with simple daily prompts to keep both physical and mental clutter under control this month. Print it, post it where you’ll see it, and check it off little by little.  ➡️ [Download your October Challenge Calendar here]  Support the show Connect with Diana: Business email: Diana@dsdeclutrr.com Our Instagram: @dsdeclutrr Our Facebook: @dsdeclutrr Our Websites: dsdeclutrr.com

    Episode 180 – Flow This Fall: Little by Little — Making Progress When Life Is Full

    We’re celebrating something BIG today… Episode 180 of Organizing with Ease!   When I first started this podcast, it was co-hosted — just two women, two mics, and a lot of coffee. Then life shifted, and I had to decide: stop or keep going solo. And I chose to keep going, little by little. Week after week, step by step, here we are — 180 episodes later.  And that’s exactly what this milestone episode is all about: how to keep making progress when life feels full. Because let’s be honest — October is busy. School, sports, deadlines, and holidays creeping closer. And the temptation is to say, “I’ll wait for the perfect time.”  But as research, real-life stories, and even some funny sayings remind us — progress doesn’t come from giant leaps. It comes from small, consistent steps.  In this episode, you’ll learn:  Why small, daily actions matter more than rare, giant efforts. What the Harvard Business Review and Stanford research say about the power of “little by little.” Why the Mayo Clinic believes daily low-intensity actions reduce stress better than bursts of effort. Client stories about garages, photos, and yes… even junk drawers, all transformed in just minutes a day. The quotes that keep me grounded, like: “A year from now, you’ll wish you had started today.” – Karen Lamb “Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.” – Vincent Van Gogh “Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go.” – Unknown By the end of this episode, you’ll be ready to identify one area in your home or life to tackle in just 10 minutes a day — and you’ll see how powerful that can be.  ✨ Your October Challenge Calendar To make this fun and doable, I’ve created a free October Challenge Calendar you can download right now. It’s filled with simple, daily prompts to help you stay consistent this season. Print it, post it where you’ll see it, and check it off little by little.  ➡️ [Download your October Challenge Calendar here]  Support the show Connect with Diana: Business email: Diana@dsdeclutrr.com Our Instagram: @dsdeclutrr Our Facebook: @dsdeclutrr Our Websites: dsdeclutrr.com

    It’s officially October — and you know what that means: we’re moving from the change of September into the flow of fall. 🍂  But here’s the thing: October has its own personality. For some of us, it’s all about Halloween — costumes, candy bowls, and pumpkins galore. For others, it’s cozy fall vibes — candles, blankets, and soups simmering on the stove. And for some… it’s straight into holiday mode (yes, even Christmas trees going up in September with the blinds closed so no one sees 👀).  No matter where you land — Team Halloween, Team Cozy Fall, or Team Straight-to-Holidays — the key is to find your seasonal flow without letting clutter or pressure take over.  In this episode, I’m sharing:  🌟 Why seasonal decorating actually matters (hint: it’s about rituals and joy, not just décor). 🧺 Real client stories of what happens when holiday bins take over… and how simplifying brought them peace. 🍁 Five practical steps to keep seasonal decorating intentional, not overwhelming. 📊 Surprising stats about how decorating affects your mood (and why some people are happier decorating early). 🎯 Your mini challenge for the week — and a bonus October Challenge Calendar download to keep the momentum going all month. This episode will help you embrace the season in a way that feels good for you — whether that’s pumpkins, twinkle lights, or skipping it all together.  ✨ Don’t miss the October Challenge Calendar! Download it here ➡️ and have fun checking off each small, doable step.
