Feeling like life has become all work and no play? In this episode, Deanna Yates explores how clutter might be the hidden culprit stealing your joy—and how clearing it can help you reclaim fun, freedom, and spontaneity.
This week’s focus is on the “G: Good Times” pillar in the E.M.P.O.W.E.R.I.N.G. Life Assessment. Deanna breaks down how physical, mental, and emotional clutter drains your energy and blocks the joy you deserve. She shares why fun often disappears in motherhood, and how you can bring it back—no Pinterest-worthy plans required.
From playful decluttering strategies to creating a “Fun Bucket List,” this episode is packed with inspiration and practical tips for making fun a non-negotiable part of your life again.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
How clutter sabotages your capacity for joy
Why high-achieving moms often feel stuck in “survival mode”
Tips for making decluttering fun (yes, really!)
How to reclaim your time, energy, and identity through less stuff
One small shift to start enjoying life more—today
