Hey there, Purpose Chasers! Welcome back to another episode of the Redefining Wealth podcast, where today we're kicking off our new month with a new theme and a new pillar: the SPACE Pillar. And let’s be honest, this is a pillar that many people are notorious for neglecting. Let’s get started by talking about clutter. Yes, that's right – clutter in all its forms and the staggering (and surprising) costs it incurs on our lives.

Now, before we unpack the chaos, let's define what clutter really is. It's anything that's taking up space in your physical environment and the things that are cluttering up your mental space, too. And trust me, it's more than just a nuisance – it's a silent thief robbing you of your time, energy, and peace of mind. Clutter isn't just about having too much stuff lying around. It's a reflection of the chaos within us. And it's costing us dearly. From heightened stress levels to diminished productivity, clutter is a sneaky culprit behind it all.

So in today’s episode, you’ll learn the hidden costs of clutter and how it's impacting every aspect of your life. From wasted time to missed opportunities, clutter is holding us back in ways we may not even realize. So, join me as we embark on a clutter-busting new month all about the SPACE Pillar. It's time to reclaim our space and our sanity so we can truly thrive.
