Clutter isn't just about having too much. It's about not having a clear internal reference point for what stays and what goes.

In this episode, I walk through the deeper pattern underneath clutter: disconnection from self. When you've spent years adapting, people-pleasing, or overriding your own needs, decision-making becomes unclear. Not because you're incapable, but because you were never taught to anchor into yourself first.

We'll connect this to the concept of fawning (as described by Meg Josephson), and how it shows up in your home through indecision, overkeeping, and overwhelm.

This isn't about organizing. It's about learning how to choose again.
