Ep 17 - Systems for Sanity: How to Create Systems That Simplify Your Home Life

Does your home sometimes feel more like a source of stress than a sanctuary? You’re not alone. For many of us, managing everything at home—from meals and laundry to tidying and bills—can feel overwhelming. But here’s the good news: the key to reducing that stress isn’t doing more. It’s having better systems in place.

 

In this episode, we dive into how to create systems that simplify your home life and free up your time and energy for what truly matters. I share a personal story about how a failing chore system with my kids caused stress and how a few simple adjustments turned it around.

 

You’ll learn:

• Why your physical environment impacts your mental and emotional well-being more than you think.
• The difference between process goals and project goals—and why it matters for your home.
• How to design systems with clear expectations, prompts, and rewards.

 

Whether your struggle is with clutter, cleaning routines, or getting your family to help out, this episode is packed with practical tips to make your home more calm and supportive instead of a constant source of chaos.
