The Hidden Cost of a Messy Workspace | Clutterbug Podcast # 283

Clutterbug - Real-Life Hacks and Tips to Declutter, Organize and Clean your Home Fast

Ever feel like your house is one big junk drawer for your job, your hobbies, your dreams, and your daily chaos?

Like your kitchen table is now a desk, your closet is holding camera gear, and everywhere you look is just one more to-do staring back at you?

In this episode, I open up about the sneaky stowaway that came with working from home: work clutter — physical, emotional, and digital. Whether you're running a business from your basement, balancing a hybrid job, or trying to keep your crafting chaos under control, this episode will help you draw a line (maybe even build a wall!) between your home and your hustle.

We unpack why work-from-home clutter is so overwhelming — and what you can actually do about it. I’m sharing real strategies that have helped me survive running a business with a family of five and a house full of bins, binders, bees (yes, bees), and big feelings.

Whether you’re a crafter, a creator, or just tired of your job living rent-free in your living room — this episode will leave you feeling inspired, capable, and ready to take back your space.

✨ We talk about:

- Why your home feels like it’s bursting at the seams — and what to do first

- The truth about hybrid work clutter (and why it’s the worst)

- The 90-day rule for work stuff you haven’t used - How to set boundaries when your office is your kitchen

- The power of zoning and why clutter needs “walls”

- The hidden mental load of hobby clutter (and how to deal with it)
