Episode Details

It's always SO exciting when I record something that immediately becomes one of my favorite episodes. This is one of those!! My degree is in psychology because I've always been fascinated with understanding human behavior, motivations, and emotions. So today, I explore 5 psychological theories and cognitive biases that affect WHY it's hard to declutter, and what we can do to move forward.

I hope you feel seen and empowered.

Remember: I am not a doctor of psychology, rather just sharing concepts I've found to be highly interesting!
