Inspiring, new ways to declutter

I love how Emily’s podcast deepens decluttering to truly include the heart and mind. We often declutter to seek peace in our lives, so let’s go deeper! Very thankful for this podcast.

Spurred on in Simplicity

Super excited to be finding ways to grow more in simplicity—particularly how it pertains to living life in Christ. It is for freedom he has set us free!
Healthy Stacey

Like chatting with your mom friend—who actually has great advice.

Emily’s podcast is such a breath of fresh air. In a world full of people trying to “brand” themselves into experts, Emily just shows up as herself—real, relatable, and genuinely helpful. Listening to Moms Overcoming Overwhelm feels like having a cup of coffee with that one mom friend you can be totally honest with… who also just happens to have the exact words and wisdom you need to hear. Her advice is simple but powerful, and it actually makes decluttering (and motherhood) feel more manageable. Which is saying a lot from this ADHD mom who has struggled for years with clutter procrastination and overwhelm. I’m so grateful I found this podcast. You’re going to love Emily!

Inspiring and informative

Discovered this podcast while organizing my garage, and have now listened to every episode! Emily has helped me so much in my journey to simplify! My only suggestion would be to shorten the intro and ending. It takes two 45 second skips to *approach* the end of the intro, and the ending gets a little old when binging a bunch of episodes in a row. But I love the show and I fast forward the intro and ending to get to the episode. I would love to see more specific episodes about different areas of the home, like how Emily has done closet or medicine cabinet. And maybe some more diverse points of view in guests—most seem to be Christian homeschoolers from the Midwest/South (nothing wrong with that, just nice to get different life experiences represented). I really enjoy this show, and Emily is so soothing and thoughtful. I love her vulnerability about postpartum struggles—I faced similar ones, and also really appreciate her sharing her infertility struggles (been through that, also). Definitely one of my favorite podcasts—I wish I had more to binge as I declutter and get my life on track! Would love more content on decluttering calendar/obligations, because I’m in my carpool era and feel a little spread thin even though I try to be discerning about what my kids and I do

Loving this podcast!!

The simple tips given have made such an impact in my life! I’m especially loving the use of poems and rhyming because it’s fun and also easy to remember! The 5 B's to organize tasks has been especially helpful!! - brainstorm, brain dump, buckets, batch, & block. Thank you for this amazing resource to help declutter my home, head, & heart!!

Highly recommend!

I recently found your podcast and I am so glad that I did! Thank you, Emily, for your helpful advice and tips to help moms like me feel less overwhelmed. I appreciate all of your tips on decluttering. Keep up the wonderful work!

Such a relief to find as a new mom!

As a first time mom, the biggest shock to my life after my baby was born became trying to find time to keep up with the little things around the house. I’m so glad I found this podcast! Now, I’m able to listen to these episodes while putting my baby to sleep, and I gain actionable insight for ways to keep up while still juggling my other responsibilities as a mom. This podcast never makes me feel judged or guilty for my current systems, but rather reinforces the fact that I’m not alone in the struggle. Emily speaks from a place of compassion and provides advice for a wide range of moms to help in every scenario!

So helpful!

Just started, but I’m enjoying the content!! Great ideas ❤️

Ditching the overwhelm

As a mom with so many different roles and responsibilities, I find myself feeling overwhelmed a lot of the time. I love Emily’s practical tips to help declutter my house, mind, and life so I can have brain space for what’s important to me.

💭Helping me take action every time I listen 💭

I literally typed into Apple Podcast “overwhelm mom” and popped Emily’s podcast with those words + solution in one. It’s not easy to reflect on yourself if it’s easier to cast blame on others. I was pointing fingers at my kids (ahh they’re so young), my husband (yes of course he does plenty but he’s so busy), my parents (they live 3,000 miles away), my in-laws (they’re loving but they don’t get it). After listening to Emily’s calm voice, wholesome vocal demeanor, I was calmed. I especially relate to her discussions on perfectionism and raising boys.

Love the quick, encouraging episodes!

One of my weekly “must listen” podcasts!
Momof4midwest

Great motivation

This podcast is a great motivator for me to just start. I like the length of it-not too long or short-just enough time to get a few things checked off my mental list of items to get done around the house :)
suzannelatkowski

LOVE this podcast!

I really love Emily's gentle and encouraging approach combined with practical and useful tips to help me declutter and simplify my life. I can choose a shorter or longer episode t based upon how much time I have to listen and am guaranteed to leave armed with more knowledge, information, and insight to help me navigate this often overwhleming mom-life.

Great Tips, Encouraging!

One of my go to podcasts. I enjoy Emily’s encouragement, the tips she offers and interviews. Easy to listen to & implement. Even when or especially when I feel overwhelmed Emily’s tips give me just the right amount of nudge to get me going.

Helpful & Encouraging for Moms

I started listening to this podcast after searching for help with decluttering and simplifying my home. I kept listening for the wonderful conversations and great tips. This podcast is both encouraging and motivating. I’ve learned so much about decluttering, routines and creating habits but I have also learned to give myself grace as a mom and wife. Her calming voice is so nice to listen to as I work in my home on daily tasks and also decluttering projects. I am so glad to have helpful tips to make my life a little easier. I look forward to each new podcast episode. Thank you for all you do!
JessJAndersen

Changed my mindset and my lifestyle

I have been listening to Emmy for almost a year now. With 4 kids under 7 I felt like I was always drowning in laundry and school papers. Her principals on managing these things have made a huge difference. I now do daily laundry, have a take back basket at the bottom of my stairs and a system for my kids artwork. I will continue to listen and glean all her wisdom about managing physical, mental and emotional clutter. This podcast is really a gem. I have recommended it to several of my personal friends.
Sunshinent2024

Very Helpful and Relateable

I started listening to this podcast and it has changed my mindset on clutter and stuff. Emily gives realistic ways to tackle the clutter and also understands what it’s like to do this with a family. I love this podcast and highly recommend.

Four Tendencies

Emily… I have been listening to you from the beginning… and have learned so much from you.I especially loved the episode on Gretchen Rubin‘s Four tendencies… I took the test and then I had my son take the test. I am sure this will help us in understanding our many differences going forward. Keep up the great work 💕With gratitude, Maureen.
LaHalo1

Calming Podcast!

Emily has a soothing voice and it’s nice to hear different tips about organizing. My kids are about a decade older than hers, but there are still many points that connect with me and everyone can always use more accountability for decluttering. Thank you being there for all the overwhelmed moms!
dnanasplit

So calming!

When I am overwhelmed and just needing somebody to speak calmness, and honestly the fact that everything is going to be OK, I come to the podcast. I love the helpful tips that she gives that are so easy to incorporate into your daily routine. And how simple they are! great podcast!
Liz7676

Great Introduction to Decluttering

Emily spoke to my MOPS group and ever since she inspired me there, I have begun my journey to declutter the massive amount of stuff in my home that we’ve accumulated over the years. What would have otherwise felt like an overwhelming feat has become digestible with her practical tips that can be incorporated with even short periods of time to spare. I appreciate Emily and the time she pours into her podcast by sharing with other moms how her own life has improved from her decluttering journey. There is hope for me too in clearing my space and mind from all of this stuff!

She gives simple step by step instructions to break it all into small attainable steps. I love how the content isn’t redundant and is applicable to many seasons of life. Thankful to have found this podcast and the impact is has had on my life with littles!

This podcast is helping me revamp my entire home

I’ve been binging every episode of this podcast ever since I stumbled upon it this past winter, and it has truly equipped me with the mentality to overhaul my home and life. Emily feels like a longtime friend and has one of those easy-to-listen-to voices that is such a breath of fresh air in the zone of podcasts! She’s also so organized and succinct with her tips and tricks. I’ve gleaned invaluable tactics and feel like I’m finally regaining control of our home as I continually declutter and restructure our home as a family of 6. As soon as a new episode comes out, I immediately start listening and recharge my batteries. It’s truly been a game changer, as I often find myself in a state of overwhelm managing 4 young children in a rather large home. Thank you, Emily, for helping me and countless others simplify our lives and take back our lives!

Great Podcast!!

Emily has the cutest laugh, but really her down to earth style and sweet and helpful voice and advice are a breath of fresh air! I really enjoy listening to her and have taken away lots of great advice on how to simplify my family’s life which has helped relieve some stress and helped me enjoy motherhood more! Thank you Emily for giving such great content!!! Also, I love her rhyming! ☺️
Simply, Joyfully Lauren

Enjoying this show!

I am a new listener, and I truly appreciate both the practical tips and the heart behind the show itself. I think all mamas struggle with overwhelm to one degree or another in different seasons of their motherhood. Emily does a great job providing practical advice to move toward a life of simplicity, minimalism, and peace. And such a soothing voice! I love it.
marlanoel

Very Encouraging!

I just listened to the episode about stopping procrastination and I thought it was full of excellent, achievable tips. I’ve looked through some of the other show titles and can’t wait to listen! Very practical and straight to the point!

Perfect for busy moms!

Love this podcast by Emily. Her voice is so calming & always offers great tips, tricks, and guests. I’m often doing chores or gardening with one headphone in so I can listen to my wild kids and this is easy to follow along with. I often find myself coming back to it over and over! Thanks Emily!

Feels like you’re having coffee with a friend

This podcast has been so enjoyable, relatable, and inspiring! I feel like I’m having coffee with a close friend who cares about my well being! Each episode brings helpful tips and mindset shifts that can be incorporated into real life. Emily has awesome perspectives and brings in so many wonderful guests to be interviewed. Love listening to it every day on my commute to/from work. Each episode I listen to I love more than the last one. All so so good!
crazymom5kids

I love steps!!

Emily gives so many great tips and tricks to decluttering and organizing and creating habits! I love all things acronym and steps! These resonate with me and help me to break things down when I start working on a project or try to create better habits. Thanks for your diligence in helping us older moms get our act together!!

Practical & Encouraging

Emily does a great job of loading her episodes with practical tips and encouragement so moms feel like they can actually do a good job at “all of the things.” I love the variety of her guests as well and how the interviews with others feel natural and are always full of helpful advice.
Parellistudent

Helpful and practical!

I’m really enjoying this podcast. It keeps me focused on what I can do, rather than the feeling of never enough. Also love the length of the show, never too long where I don’t have time to finish it. Thank you!
RUBIEROSIE

Simple but Significant!

I am a mom of a young mom. She is a mom of a 7 month old and a 20 month old. She is very busy and overwhelmed with clutter. I do not know how to help because I have never dealt with my clutter issues. Your information is simple and significant in getting started and making a huge difference. Thank you!
LexiBF5

One of my favorite podcasts

I look forward to Tuesdays and Thursdays knowing that new episodes will be released! I have been listening for so long that I can’t recall how I originally found the show, but I am sure I must have typed something like “overwhelmed mom” in the search during a particularly hard stage of motherhood. My baby is now almost three and I no longer feel as overwhelmed as I did during the first year (though this stage is also quite challenging)! It is nice to hear from Emily and other guests she has on about their own motherhood struggles as well as advice/tips. There is something about the way Emily speaks that is very calming and comforting. I am grateful that this podcast exists and that Emily takes the time and effort to create and share it. It helps to ground and center me during the week and it’s had a very positive impact on my life.

Practical tips for busy moms

Great show! Emily’s voice is very calm and soothing and I always leave with action steps I can put into practice in my home. Thank you!
TickerTape2020

Practical advice

I really appreciate this podcast and the practical tips that she shares. I also appreciate how some of the episodes are really short so if I only have a few minutes to listen, I can still listen. We all have so much going on all the time it’s nice to feel seen!
SarahJoy221

Motivation!

Starting a project is always the hardest for me, especially when it feels like you’re boiling the ocean when tidying as a mom. Emily breaks down how to tackle organizing and decluttering. I don’t only feel motivated to start, but I also feel prepared with strategies to continue until I’m done. I feel happier and less scatterbrained/stressed when things are simpler in my home- and when Mom is happy, everyone is ;)
LittleLesaJ

Concise and practical!

The more podcasts I listen to lately the more I appreciate this one! Concise, practical and not just talking on and on. She stays focused and has a clear goal of what she wants to share! Great tips that have been planned out thoughtfully!
aefornshell

Practical, Doable, Helpful for Moms!

I first found Emily reviewing her podcast with Kari Davis and The Well Podcast. I appreciate the way she shares her content - non judgmental and just helpful for me, as a busy mom. I feel like she has an insider view into my life because it feels like each episode is tailored to me. I so appreciate how organized and succinct her advice is (episodes aren’t inaccessible with length!) and I’ve already tackled my master closet, linen closet, and had a successful garage sale! 🙌 Her niche of decluttering is wrapped up in all the areas of life and she does a great job connecting all the dots! Keep up the great work Emily and listener, tune in!
jeanettetapley

Thankful for Emily leading the way!

Excellent advice for parents!

Emily does a great job giving tangible suggestions of how to manage stuff, time etc. I really appreciate the varying length of her podcasts as sometimes I only have a couple min in the car, and other times I have longer to listen.
