Today we are talking about decluttering, and we're not just talking about decluttering your physical space,

but your mental and emotional space too. My guest is Mika Perry, who is a mom of three, a podcast host herself,

and also an organizing and lifestyle expert who serves women through her inspired ideas,

her simple solutions for a more beautiful, healthier, and happier life. I loved how Mika has this

way of making the practice of decluttering our lives both simple and attainable.

She shares how the goal is not perfection.

The goal is to create habits that give you more time and more energy to enjoy the things

in life that are most important to you.

I took so much away from this conversation and I think

you will too, so let's dive in. Welcome to Powerhouse Women, the podcast for women who know

they are ready for more. I'm Lindsay Schwartz, your host and the founder of Powerhouse Women,

and together we'll unlock the confidence and clarity

you are looking for to help you get out of your own way and into action around your next big

idea. Welcome back to the show. Today, I am thrilled. I get to host one of my new friends on the podcast. So Mika, thanks so much for being here.

Thank you for having me, Lindsay. I'm really excited to be your new friend.

You guys have heard me share before how that That's just kind of how I roll. I just find people who

are amazing and then I make them be my friends. So this is now official. You have it. We have

it recorded that we're friends. We are friends. So it's funny. I was thinking back to how we actually met, and I didn't remember

the story until you shared it just last week on your Instagram story about the podcasting event

hosted by our friends at the Emerald. I had attended and I really, really wanted to be there

because I was getting ready to launch this show. And then you were actually a presenter

at that event because you and your hubby have an amazing podcast, which we'll talk about in a moment.
