In this episode, you'll discover these declutter tips for homeschool moms:

  • Emily advises asking yourself what matters most.
  • Setting artificial boundaries in the home using the container concept.
  • Consider your values, boundaries, and capacity for decision-making.
  • Simplifying not just physical space but also your schedules and activities.
  • Emily shares her personal experience of simplifying and decluttering.
  • The discussion includes the importance of managing overwhelm in mom's lives.

  • Create a simple menu plan.
Emily from Simple by Emmy podcast encourages homeschool parents:
  • Start with understanding what matters most to you.
  • Don't fill your home just because you have space; consider what you can realistically manage.
  • Streamline choices to reduce decision fatigue.
  • Flex your decision-making muscles by starting with small, less sentimental items.
  • Begin with 10-15 minute decluttering sessions.
  • Reduce the volume of possessions to naturally organize and simplify. For example, include having one water bottle and one pair of sneakers for each child.
  • Establish natural times in your day for resetting areas, like after the kids go to school or before starting work.
  • Acknowledge that it's okay if certain areas are not perfect all the time.
  • Recognize when overwhelm is present and take steps to address it.
