Amy has never really liked the colour red. So why has she just built her entire personal brand around it?

In this relaunch episode, her first since January, she shares what's really been going on behind the scenes: the burnout she never thought would happen, the lessons learned from saying yes when she should have said no, and what all of it taught her about self-trust. Plus why it has everything to do with the clutter you've been putting off.

This episode of How To Break Up With Your Stuff goes far beyond “new year, new you” cringefest, because the real reason goals fall apart is not laziness or lack of discipline. Amy cuts to the psychological heart of why January feels like Groundhog Day: the change never starts with who you’re becoming.

Instead of shallow resolutions and over‑pressured to‑do lists, this episode reveals how your self‑concept and your environment work together… or against you. Amy explains the real reason most goals fail, how your home reflects your identity, and why mindset shifts are the first step to lasting change.

Featuring a transformational scripting tool Amy uses with clients, this episode reframes January from to‑do list to identity upgrade.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• The real psychology behind why New Year’s goals collapse
  
  
• How clutter and self‑concept are deeply connected
  
  
• Why behavioural goals fail without identity work
  
  
• How clarity changes behaviour without force

You don’t need more deals; you need more calm. This week’s episode of How to Break Up With Your Stuff is your no-fluff, anti-chaos guide to navigating Black Friday without ending up with a house (and head) full of clutter.

Between endless flash sales and the UK Budget adding even more financial pressure, it’s no wonder everyone feels a bit feral this week. But let’s get real: emotional spending, guilt gifting, and panic baskets are costing you more than money; they’re draining your energy, your clarity, and your peace.

In this episode, I’m diving into:

• Why Black Friday guilt is a real thing
  
• The sneaky price-hike tricks brands like Amazon use (yep, even before the “discounts”)
  
• How to tell the difference between intentional shopping and chaos shopping
  
• Gifting without guilt or clutter
  
• Why shopping small might mean skipping the discount — and why that’s ok
  
• The exact way I create a Black Friday shopping list that works
  
• The emotional clutter behind buying more “just in case” and what to do instead 

This one is basically your Black Friday detox. A mindset reset before your inbox explodes.

This week, I’m unpacking why that ‘dream home’ narrative we've all been sold might actually be wrecking your nervous system. Between rising living costs, the upcoming UK budget, and Rachel Reeves throwing shade on big property perks, now’s the time to rethink the “more is better” mindset.

I'm sharing my own experience of decluttering and selling my four-bed family home, moving in with my mum, and buying a small home as a single mum—and why, against all expectations, I’m genuinely buzzing about it.

We’ve been taught to believe that growing up means levelling up into bigger houses, more rooms, more stuff. But bigger doesn’t always mean better. And that pressure? It’s costing you time, peace, and let’s be honest—probably a whole Saturday morning in the garden you didn’t want.

Plus, I’m spilling the real tea on how you could save thousands by investing in proper storage and systems, rather than an extension or a move. Your square footage isn’t the problem—your clutter is.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• Why “dream home” culture is messing with your head
  
• How Rachel Reeves’ upcoming Budget might affect your housing choices
  
• What my move from big house to small home is teaching me
  
• Why proper storage beats a pricey extension
  
• The real cost of keeping stuff you don’t use
  
• What to do instead of just moving to “fix” your life
  
• My favourite mindset shift for this season of life

If the thought of moving house makes you want to lie in bed with the covers over your head, you’re not alone. Downsizing, decluttering and packing up years of life is not just a logistical nightmare.

It’s emotional.
It’s overwhelming.

… and it can be absolute carnage if you don’t have a plan.

That’s why I sat down with the fabulous Jo Jacob, Professional Organiser and founder of Benella Home Organisation. Jo’s moved countless families (and herself) through every kind of transition you can imagine: downsizing, retirement, bereavement, you name it.

She’s got ten years of professional experience plus her own very real stories of navigating a massive downsize, dealing with sentimental clutter, and even finding… wait for it… an elephant tusk and a skeleton in a client’s attic.

We’re also diving into:

✨ How to deal with sentimental items without drowning in guilt or storage boxes

✨ The one thing you must do before getting removal quotes

✨ How to plan your kitchen before you’ve even got the keys

✨ A genius trick for keeping your children’s height markings when you move

✨ The emotional side of leaving a family home and how to actually make peace with it

Have you ever looked at those “after” photos on Instagram and thought…

“Well, my house will NEVER look like that” 

You’re exactly who should listen to this episode. 

This week on The Space Creator Show, I’m joined by Juliette Parsons from @creatingspacewinchester to talk about the biggest myth in decluttering: the goal of making your home looking Instagram-perfect.

Spoiler: it shouldn't be.

In fact, aesthetics are often the least important part.

Decluttering is about creating a home that works for you, NOT for strangers on the internet. 

Juliette and I talk about ditching the guilt, letting go of “perfect” and finding systems that make life easier, even if they’re not photo-worthy.

You will also learn:

✨ What the real goal should be: less stress, more headspace

✨ How to create a home that works for your family

✨ When to call in a professional (and why it’s SO worth it)

✨ Why it’s normal to create more mess before you can enjoy your clutter free home

✨ What you can do to start now, even if it won’t look ‘finished’ straight away

What if your clutter wasn’t just “stuff” but a mirror for everything you’re scared to face?

In this deeply honest and moving episode, I’m joined by one of my incredible coaching clients and Pro Organiser Academy star, Karla from @klearmyspace. Karla is not only a vibrant and magnetic professional organiser in South-East London, but she’s also a mum, BBC TV expert, and now fully booked business owner, despite the odds.

From running workshops for £30 a day to now charging her worth and helping women transform their homes and self-worth, Karla shares how identity work, EFT tapping, and mindset shifts changed her life, and how they can do the same for you.

We also get real about money blocks, motherhood, business boundaries, and the emotional legacy of clutter. Karla opens up about her mum’s mental health and how that shaped her relationship with stuff, identity, and success. This one’s packed with wisdom, heart, and some serious truth bombs.

What you’ll learn:

✨ How EFT tapping helped Karla and her daughter build confidence and calm

✨ Why women (especially Black women) often struggle to feel worthy of success

✨ How Karla started her dream decluttering Business, Klear My Space 

✨ Karla’s mindset shift that took her from undercharging to fully booked

✨ The emotional side of clutter and how it links to childhood, self-concept, and worth

✨ Why “spare room” is banned vocabulary and why junk drawers are a vibe

✨ What it's really like growing up with a parent who won’t let anything go

If you’ve ever looked around and thought, “How did it get this bad?” you’re not alone. The toys, the dishes, the laundry, the mental to-do list that never stops. This episode is for the mums who are just plain overwhelmed and need permission to stop trying to do it all.

I sat down with Annie from Declutter with Delight to talk about what really happens when you let go of the guilt, the pressure, and the piles, and start creating a home that supports your real life, not your Pinterest board.

We’re digging into:

• Why motherhood during COVID sent Annie into stuff overload, and how it led her to decluttering for mental survival
  
  
• How being a former teacher helps her create routines and systems that actually stick
  
  
• The myth that “you should just be able to manage” and why it keeps so many women stuck
  
  
• What changed when she stopped obsessing over how things looked and focused on how things worked
  
  
• Why involving kids early makes decluttering easier, not harder
  
  
• Annie’s go-to method for overwhelmed clients: start with bins, skip the sentimental
  
  
• The magic of a 10-minute tidy when everything has a place, and how to get there
  
  
• The real cost of clutter: overwhelm, overstimulation, and constant decision fatigue
  
  
• A powerful client story that started with one overwhelmed mum and ended with a complete mindset shift
  
  
• Her advice to anyone who feels ashamed to ask for help, and why it’s actually a strength
  
  

This one’s for the mums carrying it all, physically, mentally, emotionally, and wondering if they’re just not cut out for this. You are. You’re just doing it all alone.

If you’ve ever looked around your home and thought, “Why is it so full, but still not working for me?”or if minimalism feels totally unrealistic unless you live alone with a single plant and a white sofa, this one’s for you.

This week, I’m joined by Shannon from @simpllivingco, a minimalist coach and professional organiser helping women in Sussex, Surrey and South London create calm, intentional homes that actually work for their real lives.

We talk about the moment one Netflix documentary changed everything for her, and why she intentionally downsized her whole life into one room. She shares her take on minimalism (spoiler: it’s not about living in a white box), the shopping habits keeping us stuck, and how to let go of guilt around sentimental stuff.

She also shares powerful stories from her work with clients, including navigating care home transitions and turning clutter into cash.

If you’ve ever wondered whether minimalism and motherhood can coexist, or felt like decluttering never sticks, press play. This chat is packed with real talk, identity shifts, and a fresh, grounded take on what intentional living actually looks like.

What you’ll learn:

• How minimalism can work with your life (and your kids)
  
• Why your shopping habits matter more than you think
  
• The hidden cost of “just in case” clutter
  
• What minimalism really is—and what it definitely isn’t
  
• A refreshing approach to letting go of sentimental stuff

If you’ve ever felt like mornings are a total wreck, shoes are always vanishing, or the kitchen’s overflowing with random toys and rogue socks, it’s time to get real and take back your space.

This week, I’m chatting with Fiona from Professionally Sorted, the ultimate calm-bringer for busy families across Kent and East Sussex. She helps packed-out homes transform into spaces that actually work, with no shame, no judgement, and no need for designer baskets.

Here’s what we cover:

• How her background in teaching gave her the planning skills and patience needed to organise chaos
   
• The busy-family burnout cycle, with too many commitments, no structure, and clutter that steals your calm
  
  
• Why routines for things like shoes and school bags aren’t over-the-top, they’re life-saving
  
  
• Her go-to 90-day rule, and why seasonal swapping is a game-changer
  
  
• A client story where removing one old feeding chair unlocked a spare room and fresh headspace
  
  
• Why label makers are underrated heroes, especially when you’ve got kids, partners or ADHD brains in the mix
  
  
• Quick wins to try today:
  
  
• Monthly mini declutters (like toy boxes and kids’ wardrobes)
  
  
• The golden rule, don’t put it down, put it away
  
  
• Get the kids involved early, even if they’re tiny. Fake it ‘til they make it
  
  
• How she helps clients let go of guilt around asking for help, and why it’s actually a strength
  
  
• What clutter really costs you, and why investing in organising is worth it ten times over
  
  
• Her latest offerings, including pre-baby room prep and decluttering for home sales, which can boost your house value by up to 8%

If you’ve ever felt the pull of your credit card after a tough week, found your space overwhelmed with impulse buys, or wondered why shopping didn’t fill the hole, it’s time for a recalibration.

I sat down with Alison Fish, Professional Organiser and founder of Tidy AF UK, to unpack how compulsive spending and clutter were symptoms, not solutions, and how she turned it all around. Alison now works 1:1 with clients across Lincolnshire & Yorkshire, guiding them from chaos to clarity by understanding their habits, motivations, and money mindset.

We’re digging into:

• How Alzheimer's in her family exposed patterns of hoarding and overbuying and made Alison re-evaluate her own spending
  
  
• Why a full attic made her go “enough” and how she broke free from buying clutter
  
  
• Why clutter is never just about “stuff” it always has a deeper root cause
  
  
• How honest conversations about debt can unlock real progress (yes, even with your bank)
  
  
• Tips to stop impulse shopping: curate your feed, wait before purchasing, and ask yourself “Do I really need this?”
  
  
• The power of saving with intention, how budgeting for goals helps prevent frivolous spending
  
  
• Why cheap, fast fashion is a false economy, and how buying better quality boosts long-term happiness
  
  
• Educating yourself on money, buying habits, and responsibility, because no one else is going to do it for you
  
  
• How decluttering isn’t just aesthetic, it’s emotional, financial, and life-changing
  
  
• The critical role of community and expert support in holding yourself accountable
  
  

This episode is for anyone who’s realised that more stuff wasn’t the answer and feels ready to shift spending habits, reduce clutter, and reclaim control of their space, money, and mind.

If you’re fed up with mornings that feel like a full-body workout before 9am, piles of clutter that seem to regenerate overnight, and a never-ending to-do list that never actually gets done, this one’s for you.

I sat down with Louise Ufer-Nolte, Professional Organiser and founder of Simply Sortin’, to talk about how busy parents and professionals can stop firefighting and actually build a home that works for them, not against them. Louise works 1:1 with clients across Edinburgh & the Lothians, and she knows that finding balance isn’t about colour-coded calendars or unrealistic routines. It’s about systems that stick.

Inside this episode:

• Why clutter makes you tired and how to stop the brain fog by getting your physical space in check
  
• The power of “wait time” and how to turn 30 seconds into progress (not just more scrolling)
  
• The daily reset habits that stop stuff piling up again, and actually last longer than a week
  
• The problem with perfectionist routines, and how to create simple systems that flex with your day
  
• Why protecting your rest time isn’t a luxury, it’s a strategy
  
• How to make tidy-up time a normal part of family life (and not just something you do when someone’s coming over)
  
• The small mindset shift that helps you take action even when your energy’s on the floor
  
• The “never leave a room empty-handed” rule, and how it saves you hours every week
  
  

This episode is for women who are sick of being the default for everything. It’s a practical, honest conversation about how to create balance, and build routines that actually work in real life, not just on paper.

If you’ve ever felt weighed down by toy-strewn floors, morning meltdowns, or childhood clutter chaos, it’s time for a fresh perspective. In this soul-nourishing chat, I sat down with Sam Allan, a busy mum of two and Professional Organiser from Aberdeen, founder of So Organised With Sam, to unpack how instilling organisation in our kids isn’t just practical, it’s pure empowerment.

We’re diving deep into:

• Why responsibility = confidence (yes, a 19‑month‑old can feel buzzing pulling her own bowl from a low drawer!)
  
  
• How chores = future success (a Harvard 75‑year study proves chores build resilience, happiness and adult achievement)
  
  
• The life-changing magic of family tidy-up time (20 minutes, four hands, zero resentment)
  
  
• When to lead and when to step back; so kids actually learn to solve not get rescued
  
  
• How to avoid the slow build-up of mum burnout by creating shared responsibility (and not being the default for everything)
  
  
• Spotting resentment before it takes hold; and turning it into connection and teamwork
  
  
• Declutter methods kids actually get; simple keep/go systems, toy rotation, and holding zones that give everyone space to decide
  
  
• Clever storage hacks to make life easier; why labelled baskets and Joseph Joseph organisers are game-changers in a family home

This episode is for the mums who are sick of doing it all. It’s the reminder you didn’t know you needed, that you’re not failing, you’re just doing too much alone. And there’s another way!!

Why Everything Goes Wrong Before Everything Gets Better
Ever noticed how life seems to fall apart right before your biggest breakthrough? In this solo episode, I’m getting honest about the chaos that’s exploded lately—from (almost) burnout and ocular migraines to toddler sick bugs and Zooms in carparks—and why I still believe it’s all happening for a reason.

We’re diving into what it really means to stop settling, why you have to become the version of you who already has what you want, and how the universe will test you before your next level arrives. This one’s part personal update, part identity rewire—and if you’re currently in the thick of it, this episode is your permission slip to trust the mess and THE PROCESS!! 

Because you can’t manifest a new life while clinging to old habits, holey knickers, and “it’ll do” energy.

What you’ll learn:

• Why chaos often strikes right before a breakthrough

• How burnout shows up—and why I ignored every sign

• The sneaky ways we settle (and how to stop)

• Why manifestation isn’t about what you want—it’s about who you are

• The energetic signals you’re sending without realising it

• How to stop attracting chaos and start becoming your future self

• What happened in my masterclass that blew people away

In today’s episode, I’m diving into how clutter directly impacts our stress levels and, more importantly, how you can take back control to create a more peaceful, organised space. Many of us feel that nagging stress in our homes, often triggered by the sheer amount of stuff filling our spaces, and studies back this up—excess clutter can actually raise our cortisol levels and interfere with our ability to focus and relax. I’ll walk you through the connection between clutter and stress and share some empowering insights on how to reclaim your power over your space (and your mind!) before the festive season sets in.

Key Takeaways 

1. Discover why clutter has a direct impact on stress and what this means for your daily well-being.

2. Understand the surprising science behind clutter and cortisol—and why it often affects women more.

3. Learn how decluttering can improve focus, lift mental fatigue, and create a sense of calm.

4. Feel empowered to tackle clutter, even if time, motivation, or mental blocks are holding you back.

5. Last call! Join the November Declutter Challenge to transform your home (and your mind!) with daily bite-sized tasks just in time for Christmas.

In this episode of How to Break Up With Your Stuff, I’m diving into all things Halloween, but with a twist. Instead of reaching for the usual plastic décor, I’m sharing eco-friendly and budget-proof ways to keep your home spooky and stylish this season. Inspired by a recent trip to Tesco (where some Halloween décor was downright horrifying!), this episode is about decluttering, getting crafty, and keeping things simple – without sacrificing the fun. Whether you're foraging for natural décor or repurposing old Halloween bits, these tips will help you avoid waste and clutter while still creating a festive atmosphere.

Key Takeaways: 

1. Shop your home first: Before you buy anything new, dig out what you already own and get creative with it. You'll be surprised at what you can do without spending a penny!

2. Check out charity shops: Bag some fabulous, guilt-free Halloween décor, but remember – don’t hoard! Stay intentional about what you bring into your home.

3. Get crafty with the kids: From loo roll ghosts to DIY clay bats, crafting is a fun, eco-friendly way to decorate. For more inspo, visit @my_plastic_free_home on Instagram.

4. Go natural: Use pumpkins, autumn leaves, and pinecones to create a warm, clutter-free Halloween vibe – without adding to the plastic waste.

5. Plan ahead: Don’t let last-minute panic buys take over. A little bit of organisation can help you avoid unnecessary purchases and enjoy a stress-free Halloween.
