Summary

We recently welcomed home organization team Go Simplified into our home to de-clutter, get organized and learn new skills. This process for me began with a lot of shame and fear, and landed me in a place of peace and awareness and compassion. So today as we took a break from the home organizing, I sat down with Megan Golightly, founder of GoSimplified to talk about how to start, some tips on a process, and ultimately - reasons we hold onto things. I hope this episode helps us unclutter our lives and minds and help us build new skills and release the shame! Clutter happens!

Hi friends and welcome to the papaya podcast.

0:10.0

I'm your hostess, Trian Hermosta, Sarah Nicole, and each week I'm going to be

0:14.4

dishing out some sweetness mixed in with some seeds of wisdom or something like that.

0:20.6

So get ready to get inspired, get candid, get real because we are all in this digital space together.

0:30.9

All right everyone, welcome back.

0:33.4

Today we are having a really special episode because it's something happening in real time

0:38.1

in our lives. I'm sitting down with Megan from Go Simplified as we are in the midst of

0:43.6

completely reorganizing our house. So this is actually something that I spent

0:47.2

planned since last year. I definitely had a lot of nerves going into it. Home organization

0:52.4

is not something that I have ever felt skilled in, but I grew up in a home that was very organized.

0:57.5

So it didn't always make sense to me. It made me feel shameful. It made me feel inadequate.

1:02.9

I found myself especially scrolling social media. Everyone seemed to have these perfect homes

1:07.3

and I felt like I had piles of stuff everywhere. And it just built and built and built over the years

1:13.6

and has created a lot of anxiety, especially I felt a lot of guilt and shame around my relationship

1:19.9

with Shane and having three kids just feeling like I was causing a lot of stress for other people

1:25.7

because I didn't know how to tend to this need. So welcome, Megan. Thank you so much. You have

1:32.4

been through the deepest darkest of all my crap this week. Four days of organizing this home.

1:39.1

It was anything of it surprising to you? No, no. It rarely is. We find that a lot of our clients

1:46.5

and the people we help or people who just get behind the eight balls sort of speak. Life gets busy

1:51.8

and you sometimes people come into a new relationship, but they have a baby and then they forget

1:58.0
