Send us a textEver felt like you're constantly juggling everything but never quite catching up? If traditional organising advice hasn't worked for you, this episode might just change everything.Megs Crawford, professional organizing coach and host of "Organizing an ADHD Brain," joins me to discuss a refreshingly different approach to organisation, especially for those whose brains work differently. As a recovering "clutter human" with ADHD herself, Megs shares how she transitioned from corporate life to helping others find calm in their chaos through gentle, sustainable methods.We dive deep into why the perfect Pinterest pantries often remain elusive despite our best efforts and how understanding your unique brain wiring changes everything. Rather than fighting against your natural tendencies, Megs and Mel advocate working with them like placing a container exactly where your family naturally drops items instead of battling ingrained habits.The conversation takes fascinating turns as we explore concepts like "body doubling" (having someone present while you organise), understanding your nervous system's reaction to clutter and breaking free from what Megs calls "doom piles" (Didn't Organise, Only Moved). You'll learn why manifestation and vision-setting form the foundation of lasting organisation and how addressing limiting beliefs often matters more than knowing which containers to buy.What stands out most is our shared philosophy that organising isn't just about creating picture-perfect spaces, it's about believing you can do things differently. The transformation begins not with perfect systems but with a mindset shift that makes those systems possible.Whether you have ADHD or simply feel overwhelmed by life's demands, this episode offers practical wisdom for creating order that works with your life, not against it.
