    Why Your Home Feels Cluttered Even After Decluttering
    Feb 9 2026

    Just decluttered but your home still feels heavy and untidy? Host Clara Mason explains the frustrating truth: you cleared the stuff, but you didn't fix the systems! We reveal why items without a clear 'home' instantly create visual clutter and stress. Discover three essential strategies for lasting tidiness, including how to define your ‘Drop Zones,’ the power of the ‘Container Constraint’ to set boundaries on accumulation, and why the ‘Daily Finish Line’ is crucial for a peaceful morning. Stop the never-ending clean cycle and learn to manage the flow.

    The Habit That's Quietly Keeping You in Survival Mode
    Feb 2 2026

    Are you stuck in a never-ending cycle of 'survival mode,' waiting for the next disaster? Host Clara Mason reveals the one quiet habit that’s draining your energy: always prioritising the urgent over the important. We explain why chasing urgent demands keeps you reactive and prevents you from ever feeling ahead. Discover the three-step fix: how to identify your weekly 'rocks' (the important tasks), why you must schedule them first, and the power of putting on 'Urgency Blinders' to focus on what matters. Stop playing whack-a-mole and reclaim your peace.
