Episode Description

Hey Clutterbugs! Are you struggling with ruminating thoughts, mental clutter, and the constant stress of an overactive brain? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Guy Winch, psychologist and author of Mind Over Grind, to tackle the mental overload that keeps us from relaxing, sleeping, and enjoying life. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by work, your to-do list, or even the clutter in your home, this conversation will change the way you approach your daily stress.


Dr. Winch shares practical strategies to stop overthinking, set boundaries around work and home life, and create moments of true relaxation. We talk about how to quiet the mental chatter, why ruminating thoughts are so harmful, and how to use his genius "triple dip" technique to maximize joy from downtime—whether it’s a vacation, a weekend morning, or just a few hours to yourself. Plus, I share my own struggles with stress, sleep deprivation, and the constant feeling of being behind, and how I’m learning to give myself permission to pause, even if I had a really tough time figuring out how to do that last week as I last minute panicked (you’ll hear all about it).


If you’re ready to declutter your mind, stop overthinking, and finally find some peace, this episode is for you. Hit play, grab a trash bag, and tackle a small task while you listen. Let’s do it together—because less clutter (in your home or your head) means less stress, less work, and more joy.
