Declutter Your Chaos - Mindful Minimalism

Hi Friends, In this episode, I talk with author of the beautiful book, Perfect Unfolding, Kristy Halvorsen. Kristy is a former firefighter and engineer, who traded her dream home and career for the freedom of the open road. After leaving her career, Kristy downsized into a 25-year-old Airstream named Coddi and began traveling full-time, learning firsthand how having less can create more freedom, clarity, and possibility. We discuss the emotional process of letting go, the financial simplicity of minimalism, following intuition instead of forcing answers, traveling solo, and giving yourself permission to reinvent your life at any age. Kristy also shares the idea of following the "tickles of the soul" or divine downloads, as I call them, which are those quiet internal nudges that become easier to hear when we slow down and make space. Hope you enjoy this episode! XO, Amber You can purchase Kristy's book, Perfect Unfolding, HERE. Follow Kristy on Instagram HERE. It's so fun to follow along with her journey in the book and on social. Find me at @amber.cammidge on Instagram.

Hi Friends! What if the clutter in different areas of your home could tell you something about what's happening internally? In this episode, I'm joined by Bonnie Lippincott, biomedical engineer, author, entrepreneur, Reiki practitioner, mom of two, and host of the This Magic Life podcast. Bonnie brings together two worlds we don't often hear discussed in the same conversation: science and energy. We talk about her journey from engineering to writing and entrepreneurship, what she learned from becoming a mother, and how creativity and self-expression helped shape the work she does today. Then we get into chakras, Reiki, and clutter. Bonnie walks us through the seven chakras and explores how each energy center can relate to different areas of our homes and lives. We talk about what recurring clutter might reveal, why letting go can be more than a physical act, and how clearing our spaces can become an opportunity for greater awareness, clarity, and growth. We also talk about something Bonnie calls magic - not necessarily something extraordinary or supernatural, but our ability to notice what is already happening around us. When we become more present and change the way we perceive our everyday lives, ordinary moments can begin to feel very different.

Hi Friends! Press play, head to your bedroom, and declutter with me. In this guided session, I'll walk you through my method, which is a mindful approach that turns decluttering into a moving meditation. We'll arrive in the space, connect with the deeper meaning behind what we're doing, breathe, explore the clutter without judgment, and then notice what becomes possible when we create a little more space. Declutter in Layers Start with one category at a time and make your way around the room: Layer 1: Trash Walk around the room and collect anything that can simply be thrown away or recycled. Layer 2: Clothes Gather clothes and separate what needs to be put away, washed, donated, or let go. Layer 3: Toiletries & Personal Items Collect skincare, makeup, hair products, medications, and other personal items and return them to where they belong. Layer 4: Give Away Look for anything you already know you're ready to donate or give to someone else. Layer 5: Things That Belong Somewhere Else Gather anything that belongs in another room. Put it in a basket or pile to relocate when you're finished. Layer 6: Things You're Still Deciding About Set aside anything you're not ready to make a decision about yet. Don't let one difficult item stop your momentum. Layer 7: Clean Once the clutter is cleared, wipe down surfaces, vacuum, dust, open a window, or do whatever makes the room feel fresh. Layer 8: Put Everything Away Return the things you're keeping to their homes and enjoy the space you created. Hope this helps you!

Not through buying more. The answers you're looking for aren't outside of you - they're within you.

Hey Friends, In this episode, I sit down with Celina Caovan, a holistic physical therapist. In this casual conversation, Celina and I explore inner work, boundaries, and how the body can serve as a powerful guide back to self-reconnection. We discuss the ways our physical symptoms, habits, and patterns can offer valuable insight into what is happening beneath the surface, and how learning to listen to our bodies can help us make more aligned decisions in our homes, relationships, and daily lives. Celina shares her perspective on nervous system regulation, self-awareness, and the importance of honoring our own needs rather than continually abandoning ourselves to meet the expectations of others. If you've ever felt disconnected from yourself, overwhelmed by life's demands, or curious about the connection between physical well-being and personal growth, this conversation offers a gentle invitation to slow down, tune in, and come home to yourself.

Hey Friends! Today I'm sharing a conversation I recently had on Anna Dearmon Kornick's podcast that I wanted to bring to you as well. Anna is a sought-after speaker, author and time management expert. Check out her podcast here: It's About Time Podcast In this conversation, we explore why decluttering is rarely about the stuff itself and why so many women feel stuck, overwhelmed, and unable to get started. We talk about the connection between clutter and the nervous system, why organization alone isn't enough, and how small, intentional actions can create lasting change in both your home and your life. In this episode, you'll learn: • How a dysregulated nervous system can make even simple decluttering tasks feel impossible • The Body, Mind, Soul + Next Action framework for moving from overwhelm to action • Why tiny actions are more effective than marathon decluttering sessions I hope this podcast episode helps you feel better in your home.

In this episode, Amber explores the connection between boundaries, mindfulness, self-abandonment, and clutter. Through personal reflections on marriage, divorce, and blurred emotional boundaries, she unpacks how many women unconsciously override their own needs, capacity, and nervous systems over time. Amber discusses the difference between connection and access, how clutter can become an invasion of space and peace, and why mindfulness helps interrupt automatic behaviors like people pleasing, emotional overwhelm, avoidance, and self-abandonment. This episode is about awareness, boundaries, and beginning to reclaim space — emotionally, mentally, and physically. ➡️ For The 8-Hour Decluttering Plan, click HERE. ➡️ If you would like more information about my guided decluttering program email me at [email protected] or click HERE. ➡️ Download my free decluttering planner here: https://declutteryourchaos.com/decluttering-planner Let's connect: 📸 Instagram: @amber.cammidge 🛑 Disclaimer: I am not a licensed therapist, counselor, or mental health professional.
