In this episode of Permission to Be Messy, I’m back after a long break, and we’re talking about how to restart without guilt or overwhelm—whether it’s a decluttering project, an organizing system, or a creative endeavor like this podcast.

I’ll share insights on the beauty of taking a pause, how to reflect on progress, and why stopping doesn’t mean failure. We’ll explore how breaks can bring clarity, recharge your motivation, and even help you let go of what no longer serves you. Plus, practical tips to restart with grace, intention, and small, manageable steps.

Remember, life—and organizing—is a journey, not a linear process. Progress doesn’t mean perfection.

Action Items:

• Choose one small area to restart today.


• Reflect on what’s working and what’s not.


• Embrace the messy middle and keep moving forward.

Wishing you progress, peace, purpose, and the permission to be messy. Enjoy the episode!
