Episode 79: Clutter-Free Life – Transform Your Space, Transform Your Mindset with Helen Sanderson

In today’s episode of The McClain Method Podcast, we’re diving into the powerful connection between your home environment and mental wellness. I’m joined by Helen Sanderson, the UK’s leading expert on the psychology of clutter and the author of The Secret Life of Clutter. 

Helen is here to show us how to clear the physical clutter in our spaces—and how doing so can lead to a clearer, more intentional mindset.

Helen, known as "The Clutter Therapist," shares her unique approach that blends psychotherapy with interior design to help people declutter not only their homes but their lives. This episode explores:

• Why clutter is more than just physical stuff – it’s about what’s going on inside your head.
• How clutter can be a mirror for your mental state, and how clearing it can help you tap into your potential.
• The emotional journey of decluttering, from attachment to guilt to personal growth.
• Tips for interior designers on how to gently help clients face the clutter in their own homes without overstepping.
• The powerful role of mindset in design and how to create spaces that support both mental and physical wellness.

Helen gives insightful advice on the Clutter Shift and the importance of compassionate guidance through the decluttering process. If you’ve ever struggled with the clutter in your home—or in your mind—this episode is for you!
